Possible Causes
Low water level in reservoir, misadjusted ice thickness control, scaled ice thickness sensor, high freezer/evaporator temperature
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety First: Unplug the unit before adjusting internal controls or cleaning sensors.
- Check water level: Verify the reservoir is filling to the proper level. Clean the water level sensor or float if it is shutting off fill too early.
- Adjust ice thickness: Locate the ice thickness adjustment (screw or control setting) and set it slightly thicker per the Amana tech sheet.
- Clean evaporator and sensor: Use a manufacturer-approved cleaner to descale the evaporator plate and ice thickness sensor. Rinse thoroughly.
- Check condenser and airflow: Clean the condenser coil and ensure the fan is working to maintain proper evaporator temperature.
