What a Maytag Technician Deals With
Maytag says the ice maker's water valve needs at least 20 psi to work, with a healthy supply running roughly 30 to 120 psi, and that kinks, clogs or a filter older than six months can starve it of water. Source: Maytag - Ice Maker Troubleshooting
Depending on the model, the ice maker sits either in the freezer compartment or in the fresh food door (Store-N-Door and In-Door-Ice systems). Source: Maytag - Refrigerators
