What is particular
to Maytag.

Maytag ice comes from ceiling or door ice makers on French door models, freezer ice makers with a wire arm, and an undercounter unit covered by its help pages. Style 1 and Style 2 layouts use different on/off controls.

A ceiling ice maker with a door bin

On Maytag's Style 1 layout the ice maker is on the left side of the refrigerator compartment ceiling and drops cubes into a bin on the left door. A latch on the ice compartment gives access to its on/off switch.

Softened water can damage it

Maytag advises against feeding the ice maker softened water, because softener chemicals such as salt can damage ice maker parts and spoil the ice.

Filter status by color

Maytag's status light shows Order in yellow and Replace in red, and Replace plus --% remaining means the filter is not detected. Closing the filter door resets it after a change.

A modest daily output

Maytag gives about 3 pounds of ice a day under normal use, with a Fast Ice option for 24 hours of heavier use. Expectations set by a larger ice maker often lead to a call.

Parts

Door and freezer ice makers, filters and inlet valves are listed by the refrigerator model. Undercounter ice maker parts are specific to that unit.

Repair or replace

A failed ice maker or inlet valve on a Maytag is normally worth repairing. Replacement becomes the question only when major cooling parts fail at the same time.
