Default Ice maker is making ice, but can't dispense it
Brand: Kenmore
Model Number: 106.53082300
Age: 1 - 4 years

The metal finger will rotate all the way until is seems to be frozen to the ice. I can dislodge the ice and push the white knob (it says do not rotate, so I don't), and it will dispense the ice, rotate around, and get frozen again. Any help on how to fix this would be greatly appreciated

Yes replace the Motor Module. The part # is W10122536. The motor does not have enough power to remove the ice. It is real easy. You take the Ice Maker out of the refrigerator, and take the front cover off, and then take the 3 phillps head screws out in 3 of the corners of the motor module, and then take the wire sensor off, and then pull the motor module out, and put the new one in. Done my good man, you will be the ICE HERO!!!! If you need any further instruction, I can be reached on my web site at ApplianceEducator.com Tom
