How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the unit before working near electrical parts.
Steps:
- 1. Clean sensor: Wipe the ice level sensor lenses or mechanical arm to remove frost and mineral deposits.
- 2. Check movement: For mechanical arms, ensure free movement and that the arm can fully rise when the bin is full.
- 3. Inspect wiring: Verify the sensor harness is connected firmly at both ends.
- 4. Replace sensor: If the unit ignores a known-good sensor, the main control may be faulty and should be checked by a technician.
