How Whirlpool Ice Makers and Freezers Work
Whirlpool refrigerator ice makers come in several styles: some are switched on by lowering a wire shutoff arm, others by an on/off switch on the ice maker or the freezer door wall, and digital models through the control panel menu.

Some models have ice makers that store ice in the door rather than in the freezer. Source: Whirlpool - Compare Appliances (WRF767SDHZ vs WRX986SIHZ)
Common Whirlpool Ice Maker and Freezer Problems
- Small or hollow cubes / low ice production. Low water pressure, a kinked line or a clogged or poorly seated filter can all cut flow to the ice maker, and a new install can take about three days to reach full output. Source: Whirlpool Product Help - Low Ice Production - Side by Side Refrigerator
- Ice dispenser not working. First confirm whether the ice maker is producing ice at all, and if ice is made but not dropping, unplug the refrigerator for about a minute to reset it. Source: Whirlpool Product Help - Not Dispensing Ice - Refrigerator
Before You Call: The Whirlpool Reset
If the ice maker has a reset button, press and hold it for a few seconds; if not, unplug the refrigerator for 1 minute and plug it back in. Source: Whirlpool Product Help - How to Turn the Ice Maker On and Off
