      All Appliantology tech members are invited to join in this workshop on all things Appliantological. 
      We have a special session planned for this one. Instead of the usual Show 'n Tell on a technical topic, we're going to post tech sheets in the comments to this Calendar Event (scroll down to see what's posted so far) and ask specific questions that can only be answered by reading the tech sheet. If you at least try to answer the questions beforehand, you'll get a lot more out of it. The tech sheet and the questions are posted in the comments section below.
      Your mission, if you should choose to accept it, is to check out the questions for each one and try to answer them ahead of time. Then come to the Dojo to see how well you did! 
      Who: This workshop is only available to tech members at Appliantology.
      When: Saturday, April 27 @10:00 AM Eastern Time.
      Where: Online via Zoom
      How:

Set a reminder for yourself for this workshop so you don’t miss it.  And check out past workshops here: https://appliantology.org/announcement/33-webinar-recordings-index-page/

AFI2538AEB4 not making ice, replaced ice maker still no ice...

Hello, I could use some assistance. I have a Whirlpool AFI2538AEB4 refrigerator that is not making ice. I did some research online, and the most common problem is that the ice maker motor that turns the auger fails, and need replacing. Or the timer, etc. I just replaced the entire assembly, as it wasn't much more. No muss, no fuss.
New ice maker does not make ice. I'm not sure what else to do, as I have no schematic. I'm capable of troubleshooting, just could use some direction. I see on the timer there are different points to test, and I get 120v on the L and N when the switch is on and the doors are closed. But, still no auger movement, no ice making. (Auger being the white plastic piece that ejects the cubes from the tray). If I press door button for ice, I get the solenoid pop to open door, and the stainless feed auger moves. Water through the door works, so I know I have no flow issues (valve could be bad I understand, but again, ejection auger isn't moving at all). If any one has any info, I would be greatly appreciative of sharing!
Thank you!
