Know Your Frigidaire Ice Maker
How Frigidaire Ice Makers and Freezers Work
An electric water valve opens to fill the ice maker, and a solenoid opens and closes the ice chute door during dispensing. Source: Frigidaire - Refrigerators Noise Guide
On dispenser models the bin uses an auger that can freeze in place when ice melts and refreezes, and a rotated auger has to be realigned in 45-degree steps before the bin will seat. Source: Frigidaire - Refrigerators - No Ice
