The circulation pump is an essential component of select ice makers. It continuously circulates water over the evaporator plate, allowing ice to form into a solid slab before being cut into cubes. This function ensures consistent ice production for optimal performance. This replacement pump may look slightly different from the original but offers the same functionality. Before installation, disconnect the power to avoid electrical hazards. Handle the pump carefully and wear work gloves to protect your hands.

water pan over filling
For model number WUI75X15HW00
Hello Ronald, thank you for your inquiry. Based on our understanding of the issue, we would suggest checking the condenser fan motor, part number PS16744942, to solve the problem. It helps to evaporate excess water in the drain pan. Glad to be of help!
My icemaker overfilled and we were out of town. When I returned, it was making a strong, loud whishing/whiring sound like the pump was overworking. It made ice, but that did not last long. Did the pump get burned out? Which are the parts you think I need?
For model number WUI75X15HZ00
Hi Lizette, thank you for contacting us. Based on the description you have provided, the issue could be with the ice maker circulation pump, part number PS16555297. It circulates water over the evaporator plate to form a slab of ice that's then cut into cubes. You may need to replace it to fix the issue. We hope this solves your problem!

All of a sudden I noticed less ice in the bin, what is happening is that the water pan fills up and then a lot of water overflows through a little hole. After a few minutes of it overflowing a bunch of water flows down from the top like a water fall down the back of the ice bin. Not sure if it's this pump or something else that needs to be replaced.
For model number KUID308ESS1
Hello Joey, thank you for your inquiry. Based on our understanding of the issue, we would suggest checking the water inlet valve, part number PS11765823, to solve the problem. A faulty water inlet valve can allow too much water into the system, causing overflow. Glad to be of help!
Was making thin ice, replaced circulation pump and went ahead and replaced drain pump. Now it fills, circulates for maybe 30 seconds and then drains. Is my control board also bad?
For model number WUI75X15HZ01
Hello Josh, Thank you for contacting us. Researching your model, first make sure the drain cap is on correctly, and check the water pressure coming into the machine, which you may have already done. This issue can also be caused by a faulty water inlet valve, an issue with the filter or the control board. You can test the valve with a multimeter, check the filter for any clogs in the lines, and check the board for any loose connections or visible damage. Good luck with your repair.
I do not have power on my solenoid to allow water into the resivor for ice. It is my understanding there is a float inside pump W10747426. This is for ice maker model KUIX305ess1.
I read in comments that there is a connector difference??
For model number KUIX305ESS1
