We have a 2003 side by side Frigidaire model # LPLHS269ZCB4. The ice maker is not making ice. The metal arm is stopping at approximately the 5:00 oclock position. If we push the arm down to the 6:00 oclock postion we get ice, however we have to continually push the metal arm back down to the 6:00 oclock postion. Any ideas on how to fix this!

Your model number is not LPLH..... It is PLHS269ZCB4. No L in front.

Looks like the Ice maker is faulty. Change the Ice maker unit itself. The part number is Frigidaire OEM part # 241798224

SOURCE: Frigidaire Icemaker not making ice.

That on/off arm...you should be able to move it and it will likely make a small click when the switch goes on or off. That arm controls the ice making. There is also a float, is it working freely? It has a switch too. Ultimately, the water is controlled by a solenoid valve. It may be defective. Many of these units are removable to test the switches with a multimeter. Turn off the water and remove to test. Some parts are available...some parts are by the unit only.

SOURCE: ice maker has ice in lower back part of ice maker, rotation stopd

you say ice in back of ice maker??? only the rear 2-3 cubes are filled??? adn the front 5 or so are empty??? then yes its possible low water pressure from a faulty filter can be an issue, shoudl be replaced at least every year. so you cant go wrong by changing it , at least rule it out!

SOURCE: ice maker only makes crushed ice

on the bottom of the bin there is a metal rod, this goes into the back wall where the solenoid is. find the square hole it goes into, pull down the white plastic piece with your index finger. you should here a clunk. now put the bin back and check to see if ok. if not you may need to replace the solenoid assy.

SOURCE: Ice maker arm does not move freely.

there is probably a piece of ice caught under one of the harvest fingers, at this stage of the harvest, the ice arm is engaged and will not move freely until the harvest cycle is complete.

How do I turn off ice maker

Good Afternoon Rsimmon5,

I see that you are trying to turn off the ice maker to your Frigidaire refrigerator, model# FRS6R5EMB. You will be moving the signal arm to turn your refrigerator off.

To begin ice production, lower the wire signal arm to the DOWN or ON position. The ice maker turns off automatically when the ice container becomes full. To stop the ice maker, raise the wire signal arm until it clicks and locks in the UP or OFF position.

If you have any trouble with your ice maker continuing to make ice after this, I recommend contacting either the manufacturer or an authorized technician in your area. Hope this helps.

-Best Regards-

Ice maker won't stop making ice. We put the metal flip facing up and it just keeps making ice. It should stop...right?

If the arm is up and locked in position, it should stop the ice maker. check that the bail arm is indeed pushed into the ice maker head, you will likely have to remove the ice maker with the 1-3 screws holding it in place, to see it. Check also that the other end of the bail arm is attached near the fill cup, if its not attached, that could be the reason. If the arm does not appear to lock in the upright position, or if it does and still does not stop ice production, you will need to replace the ice maker

Ice maker overfilling

OK i took a look at the ice maker. this has a shut off arm. i am guessing it always shut off automatically when you 1st had it right? but now it just makes too much ice. does it still do it if you lift the shut off arm up? if you lift it up and still makes to much ice then replace ice maker. (wait a couple of days)
if it stops making ice then just shut it off every other day thanks

Frigidaire ice maker not working

Hi,
The first step you need to do is to turn the water off to the refrigerator so it quits making until you get it fixed.
If your fridge has the control boards in each side of the freezer cabinet that controls the icemaker, then you have a failed board. If you have a standard icemaker with the metal shutoff arm then you have a failed motor module in the icemaker. You can remove the icemaker and unplug the wiring connector from it so you can leave the water on to the dispenser.

Thank you for contacting Fixya.com
