Whirlpool ice maker stopped filling with water

[daveb]

I have a Whirlpool ED25DQXDN04. The ice maker stopped filling with water.

The water despenser works fine.

If I add water myself into the icemaker it works fine. Makes ice and all that.

When I pulled the refig forward I did see water on the floor and shutoff the water so something was leaking as well but not sure what.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Check if the icemaker fill tube that goes through the rear of the cabinet has frozen closed.

Someone is going to have to try to pinpoint the origin before we'll be able to offer suggestions on how it might be corrected.

Sorry I haven't posted sooner. You were right on! The hose going into the icemaker was froozen solid. First time in 10 years. Seems to be working fine again.

Thanks!

Keep an eye on it. If it occurs again, you likely have a problem in the water supply to the refrigerator or in the fridge's water valve.

Seems to be working fine again.

Glad to hear it. Thanks for the follow up.

I will, I did noticed the water coming out the tap seems extra cold this year which might have something to do with it.

Thanks again,

The temperature of the water shouldn't affect it. I was referring to reduced water pressure to the fridge can cause leaking through its water valve as could a problem in the fill valve itself.
