Crosley Refrigerator ice is dirty
If your refrigerator ice is dirty, don’t panic. The most common causes are simple and easy to check. Start with the water supply tube to the ice maker — if the line sat with water in it for months or was disconnected, scale or discoloration can coat the inside and tint the ice. Next inspect the ice maker tray and assembly; a worn or corroded coating can flake into the cubes, which looks like bits in the ice. Less likely but possible are dirty municipal water events, like a flushed hydrant or broken main that briefly sent sediment into your lines; run the faucet until the water clears and discard the old ice. Finally, an expired or failing water filter can shed residue, so replace filters every six months. If parts are corroded or the tubing needs replacement, enter your model number on RepairClinic.com to find the exact replacement part for your refrigerator and get the ice maker repair parts you need.
01 - Crosley Refrigerator Water Supply Tube
During normal use the water supply tubes will have water flowing through them keeping them clean. If the water supply gets disconnected or water is left in the tube and not used for 6 to 12 months, it can become discolored. If the water at the other faucets in the house is ok and you have replaced the water filter you may need to replace the water tubing to the ice maker to resolve the issue.

02 - Crosley Refrigerator Ice Maker Assembly
If the icemaker tray has a coating, the coating may be wearing off. If you are getting pieces or chunks of material stuck in the ice, check the ice maker tray. If the coating on the tray is corroded and flaking off, replace the icemaker.
Highly Likely
03 - Dirty Water Supply
A fire hydrant that was flushed or a broken water main can cause dirty water to enter the home. Since the ice maker uses the same water supplied to the kitchen or bathroom faucets, dirty water can discolor the ice. Discard the old ice and run the water for awhile at the kitchen or bathroom faucet until the water clears up before having the ice maker make new ice.
Less Common
04 - Crosley Refrigerator Water Filter
If the ice being dispensed is dirty, it's possible that residue from an old water filter is getting into the water being supplied to the ice maker. Water filters should be replaced every six months for optimum water filtration.
Uncommon But Possible
