Arktic Bin Level Control Failure

Unit runs continuously and never cycles off, even when bin is full of ice

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Failed bin level sensor, Stuck mechanical shutoff arm, Control board not responding to bin full signal, Misaligned IR sensor

Safety First: Unplug before working on sensors.

Steps:

Check bin sensor: Clean and realign IR sensors or free any stuck mechanical arms.
Test sensor: Block the IR beam or lift the arm to simulate a full bin. If the unit does not stop, replace the bin level sensor or arm switch.
Control board: If a new sensor does not correct the issue, the main control PCB may not be processing the signal and should be replaced.
