My Kenmore side by side with the ice maker in the door dispenses crushed ice even when it's on cubed. It then clogs the shoot and nothing comes out.
Only crushed ice
Step 1
Rod is in the wrong position
Step 2
Frozen solenoid
Step 3
Switch at dispenser in wrong position.
Many times if there is too much ice in the bin this one will happen. The rod could be frozen or even blocked and this will cause the problem. I would empty out the bin completely and let it start over again. Check it after the bin starts to fill up with ice again. If this still happens there could be a piece in the machine or a sesor that needs replacing.
There's probably a freeze-up in the area of the chute, causing only crushed bits to come out. Remove the drawer and see if there is a blockage in the chute.

I have a Kenmore side by side refrigerator model number 106.9512810. I can only get crushed ice from the icemaker, no cubed.
I have a side by side Kenmore ice dispenser that is only making crushed Ice. It will not switch back to whole cubes?
Our Frigidaire ice maker only puts out crushed ice from the dispenser. We can't get cubes; is something bent that I can unbend? I am getting tired of bagging the tray with cubed ice.
My ice maker makes ice well, but only dispenses crushed ice. How do I get cubes?
