Repairing a Kenmore Ice Maker?

I have a Kenmore model #106.57368700. The ice maker was leaking and causing big a chunk to form in the ice bin. We replaced the water inlet valve, but that did not work so we replaced the ice maker. Now the water will not shut off. Any idea what need to do I need to do to fix it?

It sounds like you have a leaky hose that fills the bin up that also needs to be replaced. The seals in these ice makers go bad from time to time and a lot of time the complete unit and hoses need to be replaced.

Once they're replaced you should normally reset the program on the refrigerator in order to get them to work correctly again.l If it is not reset the water can continue to run all the time.

We repalced the inlet valve and that did not work. So we should repalce the hose? It has a little spout that comes in from the back of the fridge and into the top/back of hte icemaker. When we turn the water on it cotinues to run and starts running out the back of the ice maker.

Since this is a Kenmore I would suggest you contact Sears Service Center (your zip code) and see if they have any suggestions.
It's possible it needs a good defrosting and all hoses cleaned.

Have you tried talking with anyone at the store where you purchased your parts? Sometimes they know of how to fix problems like this.

Try resetting it and make sure the door is closing snugly.
