My Whirlpool side-by-side refrigerator makes ice, but it will not dispense crushed or cubed ice. It does dispense water. Is there a way I can fix it?
I have a Whirlpool French door refrigerator model GI0fsaxvy010. I am having a problem with water and the ice dispenser. The ice in the bin must be melting a little because there the ice cubes seem to be fused together making a large chunk of ice.
Also there is a small drip of water coming out on the outside of the dispenser.It sounds like you have a clogged water line.
My Sears Kenmore my ice maker won't dispense ice or crush ice.
You may have ice build up. You would have to remove the ice maker and rinse it off and dry it. If that doesnt work you would have to call for servicing.

If you provide the model number, you may find closer searches online for a solution. You can also type your make/model on YouTube with your issue and hopefully find a useful tutorial for you.
You could also check your receipt or call to see if this is something that would be under warranty still (if this is fridge is relatively new)
I have a Whirlpool frig. The motor runs but it won't dispense ice; the auger is not turning.
Try to thaw out the motor first. If that doesnt work, you will have to replace it. Instructions are here homeguides.sfgate.com/
You may want to contact your local Sears Service Center (Google and your zip code) and see if they can tell you some solutions over the phone or in person. They will want to send a service man but you can just say you want to try it yourself and can they tell you what part you might need.
If you need a motor they can order it for you and it will come with instructions on how to replace your old with the new.
You can try any suggestions before calling a service person as these trips will run into lots of money.
Maybe something from one of these links will help:

Frigidaire ice maker makes ice, but will not dispense it! The metal curly thing goes around, but pushes ice to the top and to the front, but not out when you push ice dispenser button. Is there an easy fix or not?

You might need an ice bucket auger motor. The repair information is herewww.partselect.com/
Hi,
I wonder if there is ice blocking the exit and it won't allow the ice to come out. I would call their customer service and repair line at
They will be able to troubleshoot and possibly tell you what is wrong over the phone. If not, they can have someone local come out and give you an estimate.
Blessings,

If you are handy, maybe one of the YouTube videos like this one can help you fix it:

I say this, only if you have a comfort level fixing things OR if you make it worse, you are OK to call in the pros for help.
I am not handy yet I fixed my vaccuum cleaner--twice now--using YouTube, but it is 30 years old and each time if I made it worse, I was OK with that because the machine has had a good life. It has been 2 years since the last repair, so I am happy and saved money by fixing it with the video!!
Hope yours is an EASY fix. If this video isn't helpful, put the model number in the YouTube search bar and a better one is probably our there!
Refrigerator ice makers can sometimes get stuck or stop working, requiring maintenance. This has tips if your Samsung refrigerator ice maker will not dispense ice.
An ice dispenser is a wonderful addition to have on your refrigerator, if it is working properly. If your refrigerator makes ice, but will not dispense it, there may be something blocking it or the refrigerator need to be repaired.
My Whirlpool refrigerator makes ice, but only dispenses water no matter which button of the three is depressed. I don't know if it is a problem with the board or possibly just the selector buttons.
My Whirlpool fridge is not dispensing ice any more what can I do?
my ice maker makes ice,i can hear the moter trying to drop ice cubes but does not dispense ice. whats wrong ?
We have Kenmore bottom drawer refrigerator ice dispesner that is intermittently not dispensing ice. It has a loud click when it opens or closes the ice flapper door. When it is not dispensing correctly, which is more and more often now, it opens and then immediately shuts the door and does not engage the ice maker at all. If you open and close the door enough times it will finally re-engage and operate normally and dispense ice. However the next time you try and get ice it does it all over again. Any ideas on what the problem could be?
Thanks,
Greg
This sounds like you have some ice frozen in the door hinges. I would take a cloth with some hot water and try and get all the small ice shavings out of the door.
