How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off water supply before disconnecting any water lines. Unplug the freezer before accessing the ice maker.
- Check ice maker switch: Ensure the ice maker is turned on via the control panel or mechanical switch.
- Verify water supply: Confirm the household water valve to the freezer is open and the line is not kinked.
