Ice Maker Water Inlet Valve
1999 Sears Kenmore Side by Side (Model#106.58582892)(Made by Whirlpool):
The ice maker had stopped making ice, but the water dispenser in the front was working fine. I ohmed out the ice maker solenoid on the water inlet valve, and it showed continuity, then i took off the electrical connector to the ice maker side of the water inlet valve solenoid and put my volt meter leads in it, and then cycled the ice maker. When the ice maker called for water, my volt meter went to 120 volts, so that told me that even though the solenoid showed it had continuity, it was still bad, it was just stuck closed.
I replaced the water inlet valve assembly and it worked good.
