Montgomery Wards Refrigerator coffee maker not working

If the built-in coffee maker on your Montgomery Wards refrigerator won’t brew, start with the most likely problem: no water reaching the unit. Check that the fridge water supply is turned on, that the fridge water dispenser is producing cold water, and that the inline filter is not clogged; replace the water filter if it’s older than six months. Next, check the brewer pins and spray holes for clogs; debris or mineral buildup can block flow and you can often clear them with a paper clip or a gentle rinse. Finally, make sure the brewing module is seated correctly on its rails with the name plate facing forward, since a misinstalled brewer will prevent the unit from initiating a cycle. These three issues account for the majority of coffee maker failures in refrigerators.

01 - Montgomery Wards Refrigerator Water Supply Tube

Make sure you are getting cold water at the dispenser. If not, check that the water supply to the refrigerator is turned on. If the water flow is slow, try replacing the water filter; the water filter should be replaced every 6 months.

After each use the brewing module should be removed and rinsed with water. If the upper or lower pin gets clogged, you can use a paper clip to clean out the holes.
Highly Likely

03 - Brewer Not Installed Properly

With the brewing module inserted on the rails, the brewer's name plate must be facing the user and must be removed and reinstalled to dispense another cup.
