Front of freezer has both ice and water dispensers. Water dispenser works fine. Ice will no longer dispense, even though freezer makes cubes and drops them into the holding bin. The flap at the dispenser does open when depressed but no longer makes a mechanical sound nor does it bring ice cubes to the glass. The storage bin was removed, emptied of ice and found to be in good working order and the blades move freely. Is there a micro-switch needs replacing, maybe??? Anyone with any ideas?
SOURCE: Ice maker won't make ice after emptying ice bin manually.
make sure you push the ice lever back down
SOURCE: I have a Kenmore side
Most of the time the bin has been removed and not put back in properly. When this happens ice blocks the drive motor. Remove the bin and turn the auger by hand make sure it will turn and is not jammed. Now with the bin out push the light button in that turns the light out and have someone push the button for ice while the door is still open the motor should turn in the back make sure thereis no ice blocking it. If it turns nothing is wrong with the motor. The clicking sound is usually the motor jammed by ice or the auger not engaged on the motor. hope this helps good luck
