Kenmore refrigerator ice maker not working is a known issue affecting Elite 795 series. Our technicians specialize in Kenmore-specific diagnostics and repair.
Our Sub-Zero fridge stopped cooling right before a dinner party in our Noe Valley home. The technician arrived within two hours, diagnosed a faulty compressor relay, and had it running perfectly before guests arrived.

Kenmore refrigerator ice maker not working is typically caused by frozen water line or failed water inlet valve. Kenmore-specific factor: model confusion between manufacturers — parts vary by oem and model prefix. Repair costs $100-$350 with free diagnostic and 90-day warranty.
Model confusion between manufacturers — parts vary by OEM and model prefix
Optics board failure on Whirlpool-made side-by-side models — infrared alignment issue
Water inlet valve mineral restriction on all platforms — common across all OEMs
LG-made Craft Ice motor failure on high-end Elite models
Frigidaire-made 253 series ice maker thermostat failure — harvest cycle stops
Other Kenmore models may also be affected. Book a free diagnostic for confirmation.
Seeing one of these codes? It likely indicates ice maker not working.
Sacramento Kenmore ice maker failures from hard water valve calcification span all manufacturer platforms. The water inlet valve is the single most commonly replaced part regardless of whether the unit is LG-made, Whirlpool-made, or Frigidaire-made — mineral deposits restrict the solenoid orifice identically. We stock universal cross-reference valves for Sacramento Kenmore service calls.
Identify manufacturer: 795/596 = LG, 106 = Whirlpool, 253 = Frigidaire — determines diagnostic procedure and parts
Test water flow: disconnect fill tube at ice maker, activate fill cycle, measure output — should be 4-5 oz per cycle regardless of OEM
For Whirlpool-made 106: inspect optical emitter/receiver boards — clean with soft cloth and verify infrared beam path alignment
For LG-made Elite: run Smart Diagnosis for ice maker error codes, test motor harvest cycle manually
The technician identifies the OEM platform from the model number, then follows the parent brand diagnostic procedure. Water inlet valve replacement is the most common fix across all platforms — a 25-30 minute repair once the correct cross-reference part is identified. Optics boards on Whirlpool-made models are cleaned or replaced in 15 minutes. LG-made Craft Ice motor failures require the full LG ice maker assembly swap.
