How Whirlpool Ice Makers and Freezers Work
Some models have ice makers that store ice in the door rather than in the freezer. Source: Whirlpool - Compare Appliances (WRF767SDHZ vs WRX986SIHZ)
Whirlpool Symptoms and First Checks
- Ice clumping in the bin. Break up clumps with a plastic utensil, check that nothing blocks the freezer door gasket, clean the bin and confirm the freezer is set near 0°. Source: Whirlpool Product Help - Ice Clumping in Ice Bin - Refrigerator
- 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
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

Around Carrollton
Most ice maker calls in Carrollton 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.
