MIM1555ZRS
Maytag MIM1555ZRS Ice Maker Repair
Most common issues on this model
- Ice clumping or shrinking in size
- Unit running hot to the touch
- Water supply noise or slow filling
- Sheen of scale around the water area
The MIM1555ZRS is a freestanding ice maker from Maytag. The Z in the number sets it apart from the MIM1555YRS, so the full number on the label decides which parts we bring. In Houston this kind of machine often runs through long warm seasons.
Cubes that shrink or clump tend to be a water problem or a heat problem, so we begin with the supply, the water level and the airflow around the cabinet. A machine that runs hot to the touch needs its condenser cleaned and space around it. Slow filling or noise at the supply line sends us to the inlet valve and the water pressure.
White scale around the water area is common with hard water, and we show you what we find. Our quote is in writing before any work, and we confirm the number and serial before ordering parts.

Why are my ice cubes getting smaller?
Low water level, scale or poor heat rejection are the usual reasons. We check the water path and the condenser and tell you which is the cause.
The unit feels hot. Should I worry?
Some warmth is normal, but a very hot cabinet means the condenser may be dirty or blocked. We clean it, check the clearance around the machine and test the fan.
What does the Z in MIM1555ZRS change?
It marks a version of the model. Parts may differ from the Y version, so we order from the whole number printed on the label.
