Exact questions
Questions that only have an answer for the Whirlpool refrigerator
My Whirlpool WRF757SDHZ ice maker in the door isn't working.+
Many Whirlpool French-door fridges put the ice maker in the left door rather than the freezer, so it has its own fill line and needs the door area cold enough to freeze. Check the water filter (replace the EveryDrop filter about every six months — an overdue one starves it), that the ice maker is switched on and not jammed by clumped ice, and the water supply valve. If the door ice maker's line is frozen or the door is often left open, it will not keep up.
