I have a Kenmore Refrigerator model 25370812001 with a built in ice maker. The unit has run well for many years, but all of a sudden it no longer makes ice. The enitre unit is dead, no water comes in (the bins are empty), it does nothing.

I was wondering how I could get a wiring diagram for this unit. I suspect that something opened up (like a fuse) that has cut off the power to everthing up there. I'd feel much better with a diagram before I try to tear into it.

Thanks

Make sure water is coming to the refrigerator with relatively good pressure. If there is an in-line water filter, make sure it is fresh.

Check the water inlet valve solenoid for continuity.

Using a jumper cable, carefully apply 120 VAC to the water valve solenoid and check if the ice maker will get water. If not, replace the water valve.

If the ice maker filled up with water, replace the ice maker.

Here is the wiring diagram.

- The ice maker Part number: AP3160597
Part number: AP3160597



- The water inlet valve Part number: AP2585191
Part number: AP2585191

thanks for the comments. I have already checked that the water is still getting to the water valve with adequate pressure. I suspect that something that puts power to the ice maker has let go, as the entire thing quit at once (with the ice tray full).

thanks for the wiring diagram. I'll get into the unit this weekend and see if I can figure out what let go.
