Which way do you turn the water valve on an ice maker?

How do I know if my ice maker inlet valve is bad?

The cubes may be small or there may be a solid chunk of ice instead of individual cubes. Its also possible that the icemaker will stop working. These are all signs of a malfunctioning water valve. The valve is equipped with a screen on its inlet to remove minerals and sediments in the water supply.

What is the feeler arm on the ice maker?

The feeler arm is the wire arm that shuts the icemaker down then it hits the ice. There is a spring inside the icemaker head that will force the arm back down after the motor lifts it up. If this spring is broken the arm will not come back down to push the switch as if it were hitting ice, shutting the icemaker off.
