Know Your Maytag Ice Maker
What Makes Maytag Ice Maker Repairs Different
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
Common Maytag Ice Maker and Freezer Problems
- Freezer not freezing. Start by clearing out an overpacked freezer, because crowded shelves can block airflow to the evaporator fan. Source: Maytag - Why Is My Freezer Not Freezing?
- 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
Maytag Freezer Problems Worth a Service Call
- Water pooling under or inside the freezer
- Food is soft or ice cream will not stay firm

Care Maytag Recommends
- Replace the water filter about every six months or when the indicator light comes on, make sure it is locked in and sealed, and flush the water system after a change. Source: Maytag Product Help - How to Troubleshoot the Ice Maker
- 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
