Ice maker starts a cycle but stops partway through, leaving water on the evaporator or in the reservoir.

Safety First: Unplug the unit before inspecting internal components.

• Check ventilation: Ensure the condenser coil is clean and the fan is operating to prevent compressor overheating.
• Inspect wiring: Look for loose connections at the control board, compressor, and sensors that could cause intermittent power loss.
• Test thermistors: Measure resistance of evaporator and reservoir thermistors and compare to the Amana chart. Replace any that are out of range.
• Monitor operation: After cleaning and tightening connections, run the unit and observe whether it completes a full freeze and harvest cycle.
• Replace control board: If shutdowns persist with all components testing good, the main control board may be failing mid-cycle and should be replaced.
