Ices dispenser stop dispensing, but will automatically turn on in the nighttime hours - light and the flapper flapping. No ice comes out, but the thing operates loudly and obnoxiously. In the meantime the back of the freezer has a build up of ice and no longer cools the refrigerator side or the freezer side.
Check your fan next to the compressor if it's running ,also check your evaporator fan if it's running.
If both fans are running and you still have ice built-up then you may have a refrigerant leak

The noise is probably the solenoid which operates the door or the one that switches it from cube to crushed ice.

You'll have to look to see what's wrong.
Remove the dispenser cover by gently prying starting at the
bottom going round and round a little at a time to prevent from breaking it.
When it's off the screws will be exposed to access the other components.
Here's a diagram of the dispenser which may help.

Thanks, Solution #3, for the phone number ((800) 688-9900)! We, too, have the Ice2O refrigerator, and the HV Board started the disco light show last night. Followed instructions above to disable it, which temporarily solved the problem. Was on the phone with Maytag (Whirlpool?) this AM, and their initial response was that they wouldn't cover anything since we are out of warranty. I had to be extremely firm with my expectation that all parts and labor would be covered. Sent the rep back to her supervisor several times until they agreed to cover both. If you find yourself in a similar situation, don't give up until everything is covered. This is a design issue that should NOT be impacted by an expired warranty!

If it just buzzes & doesn't actually dispense any ice, you may have a broken dispenser door. We have just had to replace ours for the same reason. We have a Maytag MSD2732GR side-by-side
