The ice maker in my Maytag refrigerator (MFI2569VEM1) has stopped working properly. I have taken several steps to attempt to repair to no avail. Best I can tell is that the ice maker compartment is not getting cold enough to allow the ice maker to function but not sure why. Best I can tell is that it is cold enough to freeze but not cold enough to eject/refill. I can force it to work by putting refrigerator into diagnostic mode and forcing the ice compartment fan to run a few times to cool down compartment. After doing that the ice maker works as expected, it dumps the ice, refills and then eventually freezes new cubes.
I performed the following repairs:
- Inspected coils, all clear
- Replaced Ice Maker Module Assembly
- Replaced Ice Maker Thermostat (including Alumilastic Cement)
- Replaced HV Control board on Refrigerator
- Verified ice maker fan works via diagnostic mode
- Verified Ice maker works properly by jumping it. When cubes are frozen it dumps and refills properly after jump starting it with a jumper wire.
The only thing I have not replaced is the ice maker wire harness which I can’t imagine is bad since the ice maker works when it’s cold enough
I’m not sure what triggers the ice maker fan motor to run but I figured I have replaced everything that is involved?
Any ideas or advice?
Thanks!
