I have a 5 yr old Kenmore side by side with a very slow icemaker. Model # 106.56612500. I've tried defrosting the freezer and turned a hair dryer on all the water lines, left if off a couple hours then turned it back on, no change. Also changed the water filter, no change. It seems to make ice just fine, no leaks, ice cubes are normal size, it is just very slow, only about 4 trays a day. I also cleaned the fridge coils and checked the freezer temp, it was 0 degrees.
Time to replace the icemaker? I'd prefer not to replace the whole thing, but am think ing it may be the most cost efficient thing to do.
I looked at appliance411.com and was a bit confused by the description it gave for the icemaker replacement for this model, said it would not work for "in the door" icemakers. This one does deposit ice through the door, but the icemaker is on the left side of the freezer compartment. I'm assuming that is not the same?
