    This was really helpful. I ran a diagnostic test and pulled the lever down and it worked. Thanks so much for this.

    Can you please do a video how to fix the Ice dispenser that got stuck. Because I often get smaller ice, somehow it melts then freeze and just stuck there, in the dispenser by the door. Thank you.

    When you initially start up your fridge do you leave your ice maker handle up or down when it starts the cooling process. Or do you wait till the freezer part is all cooled down before flipping the ice maker handle down?

    I thought I finally found the answer to how to turn my Whirlpool ice maker on when I saw the freezer door front was exactly the same as mine. Sadly, There is no wire bar on my icemaker which, according to the manual, is one of 4 possible ice makers that they install. Not one of them matches what is in my freezer. Yours is a good video and I thank you for that. However, it is back to the search.

      If you don't have the metal bar, pull out the ice maker fully and look under where you pulled the ice box from. There's a small black switch under there 🤦🏾‍♂️ took forever to find hope this helps

    I have a Whirlpool refrig model WRS325SDHZ which looks like yours but the ice maker is different. There is a label on the ice maker that reads "on/ off switch on the bottom of the ice maker - right position". Well....there is no switch on the bottom of the ice maker. Damn thing was delivered today and I meant to ask this question but I figured it had an arm as you show and like every other refrig I have ever had. Any clue how to shut it off? It's making ice....no problem there. But when I go out of town I like to shut it off. I called the number the delivery guy left me but the Geek Squad(Best Buy) just puts you on permanent hold. I've asked the question on their website but who knows if anyone will ever respond. Very frustrating.
