Safety first: Unplug the ice maker before working near moving parts.

Remove bin: Take out the ice bin to expose the harvest mechanism.
Inspect for debris: Look for broken ice pieces, plastic fragments, or other objects caught in the sweep arm or grid. Remove carefully.
Check sweep arm: Ensure the arm is firmly attached to its shaft and not rubbing against the bin or housing.
Observe gears: If accessible, inspect the harvest motor gearbox for broken teeth or excessive play. Replace the harvest motor assembly if gears are worn.
