Default Maytag water/ice maker not working
Brand: Maytag
Model Number: MSD2456DEW
Age: 5 - 10 years

I have a Maytag MSD2456DEW fridge. The water and Ice Maker used to work, but I stoped using it all together when I moved to another place. Then about 6 months ago the Circuit board went bad (it stopped cooling the right side) so I had it replaced and just now I had the water line connected and found that it's not working. When I pressed the ice buttom to dispense ice, the motor seems to be working properly but of course there is no ice. When I press the water buttom, it doesn't do anything at all. I did check the water pressure and it is good. and the filter is a new one and it's installed correctly. Don't know what else I can check??!! Thanks for any of your input!!!

Can you hear the water inlet valve work when you try the water. Check the water inlet valve.Refrigerator Repair Guide: How to Check the Water Inlet Valve - ACME HOW TO.com

If that is the case yes it probably needs replaced. The link provided above mentions bad connections and how to test it.
