I truly do appreciate you! I somehow missed placed my warranty and instruction book on my whirlpool, and I cannot figure out for the life of me how to make sure my icemaker was working and your explanation of turning the temperature and the fast cool to turn the icemaker on and off was a godsend I have been looking and looking for how to figure that out. It’s been a while since I’ve had to use it. Thank you!
Thanks for your video..I needed to know how to turn the ice maker on and off on my Whirlpool French Door fridge model # WRF555SDFZ05 and your explanation was very helpful....RW
We just got a new Whirlpool, like this one. Our old similar model showed number of ounces as you dispensed water. We don't see that on this one. Is there something we need to turn on for that with this one? Thank you!
Does Whirlpool have a sleep mode by default, it’s goes completely blank if we don’t touch it, but lights up when you press the button or dispense water. My old refrigerator always had the screen on.
Your videos are very helpful. I have this fridge, have changed the water filter several times with no issues. Today I noticed water is leaking from the filter. I cleaned up all the water and opened the clam shell cover to check if the filter was tight and it is. I am not seeing any error lights on the control panel. The water dispenser is working. Do you have any ideas/suggestions on why water is leaking? Thank you in advance.
I was hoping you would explain the error codes. There is an error code and noise on the panel above the light button but the 'icon' doesn't make sense. We have no idea what it is trying to tell us.
Visually, this appears to be my French door Model. A year ago, I had to replace the supply line going into the roof of the refrigerator suppling water (gravity feed) to the ice cube maker as the rubber grommet had dry rot and caused the try to freeze up. About 3 months ago I noticed the water stopped filling the tray. The valve was replaced behind the filter (supply to ice cube maker) which did not resolve the issue (recommended as the highest probability when water works in the door). The best I can tell, the control board is the next thing to replace. (this refrigerator has been through two different power surges from lightning strikes that blew up two different TVs in two different houses, yet worked okay for 1 year from the last lightning strike) Is the control board my best next step? Can I trust an "open box" from ebay?
I have the same one but mine has a produce drawer right above the freezer below. I REALLY need your help. Since yesterday, the control panel has been blinking "cooling down" and it has NOT been cooling down. In fact, my fridge is warm and my ice keeps draining. How can I fix this???
i did a 25 diagnostic test and i got “00” in return, what does that mean? i’m trying to get my ice maker to make ice again and want to know how to fix it
I think it means it's set at the lowest temperature already. Probably want increase the temperature setting by pressing the temperature control buttons.
Check the temperature setup th-cam.com/video/zzw-FOucEqM/w-d-xo.html&lc=UgwGP6Sj7NWVlMIDVZl4AaABAg See if power cool is enabled or something is blocking the vents on the fridge and freezer. If the fridge is overloaded to max, clear some spaces between racks
I just bought a side by side Whirlpool fridge with these controls. The manual didn't even mention them. We finally figured out that we had to push the "fast ice" feature to get a normal amount of ice from the ice marker. I saw online that this feature turns itself off after 24 hours. Is there a way to leave it on, in case, you know, more than 2 people live in your house and you live in Arizona, like I do? Also, does the lock feature just lock out all of the controls from being pushed by little kids, I'm hoping? Thanks for the video.
It's probably turns off given it uses more power. Yes, the lock feature is to prevent kids from pushing the buttons. I don't have the side by side model so I can't say about the "fast ice" feature.

What's the humidity control at? Is that low or high? Outside the compartment is ok? Don't want to raise too much higher, don't want other items to spoil.

@@niazafrouzi1958 the temperature depends how cold or warm your location to be set at. In your case, just increase the number to see if everything doesn’t freeze up. 38F is the temperature in the video

Thank you Thank you, I accidently turned off my ice maker and couldn't figure out how to turn it back on until I watched this video. Well done!!
So how did you get it to turn on . I keep getting ice off
Hold down the temp and fast cool buttons at the same time. This is not well documented but this will toggle the ice maker on and off.

Don't recall on our model, it was default if it has it I though. Maybe check the manual on that to be sure.

If you can return the ebay item if it's DOA then go for it. I would only stick with OEM parts given some knockoffs doesn't last long at all.
How long new refrigerator can make ice? Thanks
I was told if the temperature is right, it would be within 1 day or as soon as 12hrs.
Do you have to set the ice machine to make ice it’s dripping water instead of ice
It should automatically make ice if there’s water. It may need to turned on to make ice.
What to do to make lesser ice? As I had to cleared by my ice bin twice per day
Just off the ice maker when not needed

Glad to hear!
Thanks ! Could not figure out how to shut off ice maker!
My ice maker is on, my refrigerator stops making ice ever once in a while I try to leave it on fast cool so it won't do that. What do I need to do??
Check if the water line is clogged or has a kink
Can the alarm volume be raised?
Nope.
How do you get the water drip tray under the ice, water dispenser off?
Doesn't it slide toward the front to remove?
I have this same one,its now out of warranty and everything is freezing in the fridge i hve tried adjusting temp ,please help!
