Beko ice maker displays E08 and the unit shuts down after a short run time

Safety first: Unplug the unit before cleaning or accessing internal components.

• 1. Verify ambient conditions:
  • Check that the ice maker is not installed in a room exceeding the maximum ambient temperature specified by Beko (often around 32–38°C).
  • Avoid placing the unit next to ovens, radiators, or direct sunlight.
• 2. Clean condenser and ensure ventilation:
  • Remove rear panel and vacuum dust from condenser coils.
  • Confirm that ventilation grilles are not blocked by walls or cabinets.
• 3. Check condenser fan operation:
  • With power restored, observe whether the fan runs when the compressor is on.
  • If not, follow the E05 procedure to diagnose the fan motor.
• 4. Inspect high-temperature sensor:
  • Locate the thermal sensor or thermal fuse attached to the condenser or compressor area.
  • Check wiring and connectors for heat damage or looseness.
• 5. Replace faulty sensor/fuse:
  • If the thermal fuse is open or the sensor is out of spec, replace with the correct Beko high-temperature sensor or thermal cut-out.
• 6. Reset error:
  • Allow the unit to cool fully, then reset via the control panel to clear E08.
