[SIZE=3][FONT=Times New Roman]The water fill tube (inside-top of freezer pointing to icetray) seems to be leaking water from inside (internally) the top wall offreezer. Thus the tube area drips andcauses the tube to freeze shut by time the second cycle happens. My guess is the water discharge piece/grommethas cracked, split, or become loosely connected and thus allowing water to not100% travel down the tube. I see ice around the backside of the grommet andthin ice crystals around the area. [/FONT][/SIZE][FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3] [/SIZE][/FONT]

[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3]My question is can I pull this black tube/grommet out andwhat will I see if I can pull it out. Any idea what I can do?[/SIZE][/FONT]

[FONT=“Times New Roman”]My freezer has not made ice in several months and Ishould have figured something was more serious than a simple frozen line, asnow the refrig is out of warranty and KitchenAid will answer zero technicalquestions to a customer. [/FONT][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]

Hi.

Most likely you have a bad water inlet valve. The diaphragm inside the valve is slowly bypassing the water which freezes.

Defrost the inlet tube using the blow dryer and replace the inlet valve.
