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
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 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
- Freezer too cold. Confirm the setting is within about a degree of 0°F, make sure food isn't blocking vents or the evaporator fan, and turn off an ice maker that isn't connected to water. Source: Maytag - What to Do If Your Freezer Is Too Cold
The Maytag Ice Maker Test
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

Owner Care for Maytag Ice Makers
- If dispensed ice isn't used regularly, empty and clean the ice bin and chute about every two weeks, wiping the chute and bin bottom with a warm damp cloth and drying them well. Source: Maytag Product Help - Not Dispensing Ice - Refrigerator
- 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

Around Lake Jackson
Most ice maker calls in Lake Jackson come down to the same handful of causes: water supply and pressure, a frozen fill tube, the water inlet valve, freezer temperature and the ice maker assembly itself.
Texas has no separate appliance repair license; under the Plumbing License Law, appliance dealers and their employees may install and service appliances (other than water heaters) without a plumbing license when hooking up to existing openings with a code-approved appliance connector, while other gas or water piping work generally requires a plumbing license. Source: Plumbing License Law, Tex. Occ. Code ch. 1301, §1301.053 (Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners)
In Texas, you can check a license with the Texas plumbing Public License Search or report a problem to the Texas Attorney General, Consumer Protection Division.
