Possible Causes

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug and close water supply before internal checks.

Steps:

  • Check bin temperature: If the bin is not cold (above freezing), inspect condenser cleanliness and fan operation. Clean coils and ensure fan runs.
  • Verify water supply: Confirm the water valve to the ice maker is open and the inlet hose is not kinked. Run water through the hose into a bucket to confirm flow.
  • Observe cycle: With panels in place and power restored, listen for fill, freeze, and harvest. If the tray never rotates, the tray motor or control may be faulty.

If basic checks do not restore ice production, further diagnosis of the refrigeration system or control electronics is required.
