I am not getting water to the ice maker or water dispenser. The farthest water goes is to the saddle connection right before the water valve. I took out the water valve and it seems clogged.

Can a water valve go bad? or can it be cleaned?

There are 2 electrical connections/or fuses[green] and [yellow] on top of the valve, are these needing replacement?

Thanks
My regards.

Hi Gene or qualified APP Volunteer Expert, thanks for the info. I have ordered the part from APP and installed it. Great! The water dispenser works again! But the ice maker doesn't still. Hasn't ever worked(since purchasing the home a year ago).

I removed the ice maker, cleaned it and inspected it.

The IM looks fine now but doesn't seem to get any power.

Also, the water disp. originally stopped working when I was filling up a 5 gal jug. Is this not advised?(Running the disp for like 10 mins straight?) I would think thats what made my previous water valve go out.

Thanks

Chris

I removed the cover and user a flat head screwdriver to advance the IM to just after the wire lever falls(that monitors ice level).

And added water by hand. It does nothing. I don't have a voltage meter but I did use a tic tracer and it responded that the cord that plugs into the IM is powered.

Hi Gene,

I just went ahead and ordered a complete ice maker from here at APP. I am pretty sure it just needs to be replaced its about 10 years old and it was only 80$ here.

It should arrive next Wednesday and Ill see what happens when I install it.

Thanks

Chris
