A) If water sprays like you say then there might be air trap on the line.

b) But most likely your Ice maker fill valve me be not closing and overflowing and creating the freezing mess.

SOURCE: Whirlpool Frig

There could be so many different things that cause the problem. Service cost a lot of Money and I can think of about ten different reasons why the ice maker isn't doing it's job. If I was there I know I could find the reason. Like poor air circulation around the ice maker, restrictions in the water flow to the maker, low freezer temp., door gasket leakage, etc. It may be more cost effective to purchace a new fridge with the features you want and need.

 I will continue to research this if you like. Hope this helps.3550f68.jpg

SOURCE: Whirlpool side by side refrigerator, model # ED25PQ

Under the right side of the fridge in the back there is a dual valve for water and ice. Try changing it out, most likely the ice side is not working. Make sure you unplug the unit first

SOURCE: LG ice maker only making two ice cubes at a time

Colenoid in the ice dispenser may be clogged or have a small amount of trash in it. Is there a filter on before the fridge (just after the ice maker shutoff)?

SOURCE: ice maker overfills and leaks into the ice bin.

I have had a similar problem several times. What I have found is that the ice tray coating has begun to flake off. Then, the ice sticks or partially dumps. Next more ice builds up and when the valve opens the water runs over the partially emptied tray and spills into the bin making "icebergs". The remedy is to replace the tray or if that is not possible, then, the whole icemaker. In fact, I have one down stairs to put in tomorrow. They don't seem to last more than about 4 years or so.

Does my Whirlpool ED25DQ have a water filter to replace

Hi Lucille,
NO This model does not have a water filter.You will need to complete disconnect the ice maker and clean it out. Then remove and flush the fill tube. If ice still appear dirty, you may to replace the water valve,the water tube and the ice maker too. I will link the parts needed and see the repair video on how to access them. https://www.appliancepartspros.com/whirlpool-whirlpool-icemaker-kit-4317943-ap2984633.html

Freezer won't make ice cubes, but does provide cold water.

The water and ice maker are two seperate water control valves built onto the same. Your water control valve for the ice maker may be defective and require that you change the set. Fill ice maker with tap water and allow the water to freeze. If the ice maker dumps the ice into ice bin and then does not refill then this points to the water control valve. If the ice maker does nothing after water freezes then the problem is the ice maker. Send me a model number and I will look up the part numbers for you, Thanks, Sea Breeze

Icemaker makes lil ice cubes now could this mean the line is clogged?

Would not expect you to ask this question but yes you are right cajunboudoin, an obstructed water line by either a defective water control valve, water filter beyond its useful life or a crimped water supply line will cause the ice cubes to be small during drop of ice cubes into ice bin. Fact is with Whirlpool the water valve is set to remain open filling ice maker for around 7 seconds. If water is moving slow filling the time will be to slow for the flow, If anyone has a good question you do but I would always want everyone to provide their model number, Click Here=> Whirlpool Ice Maker Troubleshooting Thanks Sea Breeze

Ice does not dispense from whirlpool refrigerator. Model # ED25PQ If you press with a cup or glass to attempt to get ice whether it's cube or crushed there is no noise or ice being sifted through.

Check the ice cube container to see if it is full of cubes and also that the cubes are nor "bridged" above the dispenser auger. Hope this helps!

The cubes are hollow and keep get stuck when they try dispence

The cubes are hollow? Means not enough water coming in on the fill cycle to fill the metal ice tray (netal form, see solution #2). There should be an adjustment under the end cover, looks like a screw with a spring around it. Look inside the cover and see if the directions are there for adjusting it properly.
