How Whirlpool Ice Makers and Freezers Work
Whirlpool's standalone ice makers circulate water over a freezing plate, release the ice sheet onto a cutter grid, drain the mineral-laden water each cycle, and store cubes in an unrefrigerated bin where some melting is normal.

Common Whirlpool Ice Maker and Freezer Problems
- Ice maker not making ice. Check that the water line is connected, the valve is fully open and the line is not kinked, confirm the freezer is at 0 to 5°F, then reset the ice maker. Source: Whirlpool Product Help - Ice Maker Not Working - Troubleshooting
- 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
The Whirlpool Ice Maker Test
