Dometic Ice Maker Not Working

So on our first trip with our 3050, we had one issue I couldn't solve. We have the 4-door domestic refrigerator with the ice maker. I tried a number of things to get it working but the issue seems to be the water supply. I opened the back compartment above the water heater to access the fridge and turned the manual shut off valve to on. I put the arm down on the ice maker to turn it on, but no ice. Anyone had this issue? Can you point me in the right direction?

I have the 3010DS and there is a water valve to the ice maker under the stove, behind the drawer. It's a white knob...push in to open the valve, pull out to close it. Did you check that?

Stove is on the other side in the 3050. I did remove the outside access panel and turn the supply to the on position, but nothing. I was tempted to remove the access panel inside below the fridge but haven't got to that yet. It would be odd to have two supply lines I would think.

In the outside access panel area you did say you turned the water valve on. You did mean either pushed or pulled the shutoff valve to open it, right?

Domestic ice maker not working

I had the same issue on my new 2014 3050s. The ice maker valve (white push in/out) is in the compartment below the fridge. Nothing in outside compartment behind fridge needs to be done.

Good luck

Make sure the ice maker is plugged in and then remember that it only works when hooked to shore power, it doesn't work on propane.

I just purchased a 2015 3011ds, found the white push in/out knob, however it will neither push in or pull out. Any suggestions?

I remember that I had to use more force than I thought I would have to. You may just have to put your elbow into it some more.

mine was clearly labeled in and out ( for ice cubes). Is yours labelled the same? If so theN Just a little extra 'force'. It is a tight valve. Otherwise your valve may be a 'turn' type. Just a thought.

It is a push/pull valve, I had to use a lot of force to push it in.

Thanks for the advice,

This may be a stupid suggestion but I'll try, do you have the metal wire arm inside the ice maker pushed down? This acts as an on and off lever.

Once ice starts flowing as the ice bin fills up the wire arm will push up and cause the machine to stop making ice.
