Possible Causes

Blocked infrared ice level sensor, Failed optical emitter/receiver, Misaligned bin sensor, Faulty mechanical bin switch

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Disconnect power before cleaning or adjusting sensors.

  • Locate ice level sensor: Many Asko ice makers use an infrared sensor pair near the bin opening. Identify the emitter and receiver windows.
  • Clean sensor windows: Use a soft, lint-free cloth slightly dampened with water to wipe the sensor lenses. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
  • Check bin position: Ensure the ice bin is fully seated and not warped or cracked in a way that blocks the sensor beam.
  • Inspect wiring: Verify the sensor harness is connected firmly to the control board and not damaged.
  • Test with bin removed: Some models allow testing with the bin removed; consult the user guide. If E09 persists after cleaning and reseating, the ice level sensor module likely needs replacement.
