What a Whirlpool Technician Deals With
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. Source: Whirlpool - How Your Ice Maker Works (ice maker use and care guide W11256912)
Defrost water leaves through a defrost drain at the bottom back of the freezer, which can clog and let water puddle and leak past the bottom door seal. Source: Whirlpool - Why Is My Refrigerator Leaking Water?
Whirlpool Symptoms and First Checks
- 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
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

Oregon has no license issued specifically for appliance repair that we could confirm, but anyone installing or servicing liquefied petroleum (LP) gas appliances needs an LP gas fitter license from the Oregon State Fire Marshal. Source: Liquefied Petroleum Gas licensing (Oregon State Fire Marshal)
In Oregon, you can check a license with the Oregon Construction Contractors Board Contractor/License Search or report a problem to the Oregon Department of Justice, Consumer Protection.
