How Maytag Ice Makers and Freezers Work
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 specifies 1/4-inch soft copper or PEX supply tubing with a service loop, and warns that pushing the refrigerator too far back can pinch the line and cut flow to the ice maker. Source: Maytag Product Help - How to Troubleshoot the Freestanding Ice Maker
What Maytag Says to Check First
- Ice dispenser not working. Make sure the control lock and Sabbath mode are off, break up clumped ice with a plastic utensil, and confirm an in-door ice bin is fully snapped in place. Source: Maytag Product Help - Not Dispensing Ice - Refrigerator
- 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
Testing or Resetting a Maytag Ice Maker
Maytag says to press and hold the ice maker's reset button for a few seconds if the model has one, or otherwise unplug the refrigerator for one minute, then allow a couple of hours before checking for ice. Source: Maytag Product Help - Not Making Ice - Refrigerator
Signs Your Maytag Ice Maker Needs a Technician
