So it's not cooling good or is it just the fresh food icemaker not working? Do u see frost inside the ice compartment on bottom of icemaker if u take the ice bin out? Also if fresh food section is not cooling good, are u seeing any water up under the bottom drawer in fresh food section?

SOURCE: Ice maker has ice in it but will not dump in bin!

before i would worry about the lights flashing lets pull the front cover off of the icemaker and verify that the drive gear is not broken.

on the bottom of the icemaker is 1 screw. remove that screw then just slide the entire icemaker out of the refrig so that you can access the front cover. if the gear is broken just replace the front motor module pt# 8201515

if the gear is fine then located in the toe grille of your refrig is a tech sheet that will help you troubleshoot red light blinking.

SOURCE: Samsung french door ice maker

Check my solution here. The noisy sound is the swing arm trying to knock out some stuck ice.

SOURCE: GE French Door Frig control panel blinking temp #s

I had a very similar problem with our GE refrigerator. The main control board looked to be the culprit. I took out the board and did a visual inspection. Upon inspection I discovered that the (2) 470 micro farad capacitors were blown. I checked the power diode near these and it was still ok. I went to Radio Shack and picked up two 470 micro farad - 35V capacitors for and grand total of $2.60 and resoldered them myself. The refrigerator has been running great since. If you want to know more details email me and I will be happy to let you know what I know. I didn't want to pay $100 for a GE guy to replace a board either!

SOURCE: Freezer side tmp flashes/makes noise/inside back panel iced

The freezer side is off. The temp is flashing on the meter in front of the refrigerator. This is a Samsung RS2545SH. Does this freezer have a reset button or what shall I do.

Why does my ice maker is frezz up, and will not turn to make ice

I'm having a similar problem. Water freezes in the mold, but thermostat does not heat ice to release ice from mold. I replaced the thermostat and still did not work. I just noticed the plastic around the copper line that touches the mold prongs is melted. I guess it shorted out. You may have the same problem. Time to buy a new ice maker even thought the frig is only 1.5 years old.

I have a Samsung refrigerator with a bottom freezer. The 'fridge and freezer temp settings are displayed on a panel between the upper and lower doors. The unit is about 4 years old. About a year ago,...

Hi adc3,

If the display has stopped working, it is often caused by a blown fuse. Please locate the main control board and check if there's a fuse that may have blown. For the ice maker issue, please check if the ice maker has been turned off. You can check it by looking for a wire that looks like a coat hanger that is located at the right side of the ice maker. Ensure that this wire is not in the raised position. If it is turned off, just simply lower the wire to the down position to turn on the ice maker. If this did not work, please check the tooth on the drive or driven gear of the ice maker. If you noticed a broken tooth you should replace the ice maker.

Hope it helps.

Thank you for using FixYa.

I got a new french door frig and it wont make ice CUBES. It makes ice and even though the indicator says cubed ice, it comes out crushed. Is there a way to fix this easily. Otherwise i like the frig very...

Try removing the ice bucket and ensure that there is no obstruction (ice cubes stuck inside of metal blades). If no obstruction, then your problem may be in the electronic dispenser control board (if applicable) that distinguishes between cubed and crushed ice. If it appears that the problem is the board, then contact an appliance service company.

Jenn-Air bottom freezer ice maker not working

I took the arm of the ice-making machine out of the slot and put it back in, pushing it snugly inside the slot, then raised and lowered it several times. Then, with the arm in the up (stop making ice) position, I felt inside the ice-making tray, where I noted there were ice cubes as well as a sheet of ice at the base of the ice-making tray. I poured approximately 24 oz. of hot tap water into the tray to melt the sheet of ice. I turned the freezer temp control to "warmer". I think the freezer temp setting was too cold, causing the ice maker to freeze the water before it could make cubes. I have a working ice maker again!
