Ok so here's the deal.

It makes ice, but won't push it out. I kept playing with it to see if I could get it to work and I managed to get the forks to push out the cubes but they got stuck in the back, so I pulled out the cubes. When I went back to look it had filled up the tray with water and now there is ice in there but it won't push them out.

Please HELP

Thanks
Jayme

Hi Jayme,

You will need a new ice maker assembly.

Complete icemaker assembly

Manufacturer's Part#: 2198597

Here's the instructions TO change the ice maker assembly:


1. Remove the bucket from the door to get some room.

2. Put a piece of tape on the sensor flapper to hold it down so you won't damage it while removing the ice maker.

3. Remove the ice maker service cover door by spreading the two hinge fingers apart away from the center and the door should lift out of the slot.

4. Remove the screw in the right rear bottom side of the ice maker.

5. After removing the screw that cover should lift up from the rear and just work it out from the rear and you see the electrical harness.

6. On the left track the should be a tab toward the bottom which you need to push up.

7. Push up tab and start working the ice maker towards you pulling it out of the track.

8. Careful with the electrical harness in the back as you're pulling out.

9. Disconnect the electrical plug by lifting the clip on the plug.

10. Remove the side cover on the side module by pulling off.

11. Remove the bottom shield by removing the 3 screws on the bottom.

12. To install reverse the order as it came out.

how do I know its not the sensors?

Because the ice maker is still working, just not ejecting the cubes properly. They have upgraded that ice maker assembly since your refrigerator was new, so this new ice maker assembly will fix, Trust me, I've changed about a 100 of these in the past 8 years for these sensor models.
