Possible Causes

Water supply turned off, Failed water inlet valve, Severely scaled evaporator plate, Low refrigerant charge

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety First: Unplug the unit and shut off water before disassembly.

Checklist:

  • Confirm water supply: Verify the shutoff valve is open and the supply hose is not kinked.
  • Test water fill: Start a cycle and listen for water entering the reservoir. If silent, test and replace the water inlet valve.
  • Clean scale: Heavy mineral buildup on the evaporator can prevent ice formation. Run a full descaling cycle with Arktic-approved cleaner.
  • Check temperature: If the bin and interior never get cold, the refrigeration system may be weak or empty. This requires professional sealed system service.
