Know Your Maytag Ice Maker
How Maytag Ice Makers and Freezers Work
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
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
What Maytag Says to Check First
- 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
- Frost buildup in freezer. Inspect and clean the door seals, avoid warm or uncovered food and frequent door openings, and defrost once frost is about 1/4 inch thick. Source: Maytag Product Help - How to Avoid Frost Build Up
When to Call for Maytag Ice Maker Repair
- No ice at all, or only a few cubes a day
- Ice maker clicks or hums but does not fill
- Water leaking from the ice maker or dispenser
