Maytag Refrigerator Repair – CANTON, OH (MFI2269VEM2)

We serviced a Maytag refrigerator on Moore Ave SE in Canton, OH after the ice maker quit making ice. Our diagnosis revealed stripped gears in the ice maker that prevented proper cycling, requiring a complete ice maker replacement.

The Problem

The customer reported their Maytag refrigerator’s ice maker quit making ice. The unit was getting power but wasn’t producing any ice at all.

Diagnosis

We found 120 volts reaching the ice maker and the thermostat was closed as expected. However, the ice maker gear was stripped and unable to cycle through its harvest sequence. The water valve tested good, confirming the issue was isolated to the ice maker assembly itself.

The Repair

• Parts replaced: WPW10190981 — ICEMAKER, EDR4RXD1 — FILTER
• Work performed: Replaced ice maker and water filter. Cleared air from system via water dispenser.
• Result: Ice maker cycled and filled. Good to go.

Is It Worth Repairing?

Maytag refrigerators are built for longevity, and ice maker replacements are common maintenance items rather than signs of overall system failure. This model should continue providing reliable service for years with proper care, making the repair a sound investment.

Maintenance Tips for Maytag Refrigerators

• Replace water filters every 6 months to prevent mineral buildup in the ice maker system
• Clean ice maker components monthly with warm water to prevent scale accumulation
• Check that the ice maker arm moves freely and isn’t obstructed by ice buildup
