How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Always unplug the unit before inspecting its wiring.
- Use dedicated outlet: Plug the Amica ice maker directly into a dedicated wall outlet without extension cords or power strips.
- Check circuit rating: Ensure the circuit amperage meets the ice maker's requirements.
- Inspect plug and cord: Look for heat damage or discoloration. Replace if necessary.
- Monitor compressor start: If lights dim severely or the breaker trips when the compressor starts, the compressor or start components may be faulty and require service.
