Ice maker Refrigerator Repair?

Most refrigerators in use today have ice makers that may stop working from time to time. The refrigerator’s ice maker receives its water supply from a water valve. The water valve is the first component of the refrigerator that should be checked when there is a malfunction with the ice maker. To operate, the ice maker closes an electric circuit enabling the water valve to open. Water will then flow through the water valve into the ice maker. The ice maker will then begin the process of making ice cubes and placing them in the ice tray. The water valve has a filter that keeps out particles from entering into the ice maker through the water supply. These particles can sometimes build up at the water valve filter and may even block the flow of water to the ice maker. When the flow of water in the water valve is restricted due to build up, it can cause the still water freeze in the valve. One solution is to heat the water valve with a hair dryer to melt the ice buildup in the ice maker. Be careful not to heat the plastic of the refrigerator too much causing it to melt. These particles can also lock the valve in the open position filling up the ice maker to excess. Sometimes an open solenoid coil winding can cause the valve to remain closed. This will not allow the water to flow to the ice maker as the plunger remains closed. In order to do further tests on the refrigerator to determine the fault with the ice maker is to test the current flow. This will not only be a safer measure for you as you attempt to repair your ice maker, but will also ensure the various components are operating as they should. Your diagnosis will most likely be related to the water valve, but if your refrigerator is old it could mean your ice maker needs to be replaced. Occasionally the electrical connections can sometimes get short circuited or disconnected during use. Thoroughly examine all the parts of your refrigerator with the proper tools and testing equipment.

How do install a water line into a refrigerator ice maker?

I've changed the Ice maker and the wated controler on the back of the Frige.... But when I turn the Ice maker on nothing happens. It's been on several hours now and no water has filled the the resovoir. I am thinking that the device should rotate and will release water into the resovoior. Is this correct or should water flow in once it's hooked-up?


What are the water droplets outside of a glass is?

The water droplets are the result of the humidity in the air colling down and condensing on the outside of the glass. When water evaporates it turns into water vapor or steam we call the amount of water vapor in the air humidity. condensation is the reverse of evaporation and is also responsible for rain.
