How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the ice maker before accessing the compressor compartment.
- 1. Inspect installation surface:
- Ensure the ice maker is on a solid, level surface.
- Avoid hollow cabinets or uneven flooring that can amplify vibration.
- 2. Access compressor area:
- Remove the rear lower panel.
- Observe the compressor while the unit is running (briefly reconnect power if needed).
- 3. Check mounting grommets:
- Look for cracked, flattened, or missing rubber grommets under the compressor feet.
- Replace with Beko-compatible compressor mounting grommets if worn.
- 4. Adjust refrigerant lines:
- Gently bend copper lines away from cabinet walls or each other if they are touching and rattling.
- Do not kink or sharply bend the tubing.
- 5. Tighten brackets:
- Ensure compressor mounting brackets and screws are snug but not over-tightened.
- 6. Evaluate compressor noise:
- If loud knocking or grinding persists, the compressor may be failing internally and should be assessed by a professional.
