What Makes Maytag Ice Maker Repairs Different
Chest and upright freezers usually have their condenser coils built into the cabinet walls where they can't be reached, while refrigerator-freezer combinations may have external coils that can be vacuumed. Source: Maytag - Freezer Troubleshooting
Icy water can refreeze on the stripper and form an ice bridge that jams the harvest fingers, which Maytag says should be cleared with a plastic utensil only. Source: Maytag Product Help - How to Troubleshoot the Freestanding Ice Maker
Maytag Symptoms and First Checks
- Ice maker not making ice. Confirm the freezer is set to 0°F, then check that the ice maker is turned on and its shutoff arm is down. Source: Maytag - Ice Maker Troubleshooting
- Ice maker leaking. Check first that the refrigerator is level, because a tilted unit can keep water from going where it should. Source: Maytag - Ice Maker Leaking Water
Before You Call: The Maytag Reset

Care Maytag Recommends

- Keep the freezer at about 0°F; Maytag says the ice maker stops producing above about 5°F, and a setting that is far too low can freeze water before it reaches the mold. Source: Maytag - Ice Maker Troubleshooting
