Ice maker is only crushing ice. The solenoid is not activating so the dispenser arm is not allowing cubes to dispense. I changed the solenoid, which was visually damaged on the inside, but it is still not activating. Would this be a Maytag Refrigerator Dispenser Actuator, part #W10205979, problem? The auger is working fine, it spins when the ice dispense pad is pushed.
solenoid replaced.

IF the solenoid was visually damaged and you cannot get the dispenser to engage, it may have taken out the Dispenser board in the process. Double check all of your electrical connections to confirm you do not have a loose harness between the UI and the dispenser solenoid.

Hi. I just had this same complaint on this unit. I could not find any issues. I even replaced the ice bucket and it still would dispense crushed ice with the cubed ice. So I called Maytag tech line and they informed me that this is normal. The ice bucket door is set up for crushed ice so you will get a small amount of crushed ice when you call for cubed ice. This is this way on their new units. It looks like your unit is the same.
