Default Kenmore Elite - no ice
Brand: Kenmore
Age: 1 - 4 years

I have no ice and no water going into the ice maker. Water dispenser in the door works just fine. If I'm reading this correctly, I should check the valve solenoid. If the meter reading on this comes back dead (on the freezer side)-then I've narrowed my problem down, I think. Before I pull the fridge out - is there anything else I should check?

You will not get a voltage reading unless the ice maker is calling for water.

On the ohms scale you should get a reading of 23 to 40 ohms.

Make sure you remove the wires first.
