Whirlpool Gold Conquest model number GS6SHAXT03..manufactured 10/02....ice maker makes ice..but door button does not seem to be working. Trap door opens to release ice but the blades do not spin to send ice out the door. I do not hear the motor working.
I have a kitchenaid superba black side by side fridge with water and ice maker on door...the ice maker makes ice but it will not dispense through the door....I do not hear anything when trying to dispense....if anyone can help me I would really appreciate it...I just bought it off of someone else and it worked for 2 days then stopped working....
The auger motor and coupling in the rear may be frozen and won't turn.
Remove the ice bin.
Place a screwdriver or similar device in the forks of the auger and twist counterclockwise till it moves. The replace the ice bin and try again.
It will be difficult to move.
If that does not work. Turn off the fridge and use a hair dryer to hrat the auger gear and motor till it frees up.
SOURCE: ice maker will not dispense the ice
When you press the lever to dispense the ice, there are multiple switches being activated. Chances are, the one that moves the motor to turn out the ice is bad. Or that motor itself is bad.
