Possible Causes

Loose compressor mounting, Vibrating panels or tubing, Worn circulation pump bearings, Obstructed condenser fan blades

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the unit before touching moving parts or internal components.

  • Level the appliance: Use a spirit level to ensure the Amica ice maker is level front-to-back and side-to-side. Adjust feet as needed.
  • Tighten panels: Check all external panels and screws. Tighten any loose fasteners that may cause rattling.
  • Inspect fan and pump: Access the rear and bottom to inspect the condenser fan and circulation pump. Remove any debris from the fan and ensure it spins freely. Replace noisy fan or pump motors.
  • Secure tubing: Look for refrigerant or water lines that touch each other or the cabinet and vibrate. Add foam sleeves or clips to prevent contact.
