A malfunctioning ice maker is one of the most common refrigerator problems homeowners experience. At FIXBYWILL, we recently completed a Whirlpool refrigerator repair in Naples, FL, restoring a customer’s ice production by replacing both the ice maker assembly and the water inlet valve with genuine OEM Whirlpool parts.
The Problem
The customer contacted us because their Whirlpool refrigerator had stopped making ice. The freezer was maintaining the correct temperature, but the ice maker wasn’t producing any ice.
After performing a complete diagnostic inspection, we discovered that the ice maker assembly had failed, and the water inlet valve was no closing properly, then, there was a constant dripping water into the ice maker that becomes in ice.
Both components needed to be replaced to restore proper operation.


The Repair
To provide a dependable repair, we installed:
- Genuine OEM Whirlpool ice maker assembly

Using original manufacturer parts helps ensure proper compatibility, dependable performance, and long-term reliability.
After completing the installation, we tested the refrigerator to verify:
- Proper water flow

Everything was operating exactly as designed.
