Possible Causes

Faulty evaporator defrost sensor, Stuck ice thickness probe, Control board timing error, Poor water flow causing uneven freezing

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the ice maker. Allow heavy ice buildup to melt naturally; do not chip with sharp tools.

  • Defrost the unit: Leave the cover open and place towels to catch meltwater. Once ice has melted, dry the interior.
  • Inspect sensors: Check the evaporator sensor and ice thickness probe for correct mounting and clean off any scale.
  • Verify water flow: Ensure the circulation pump and spray bar are clean and functioning so ice forms evenly.
  • Reset control: After defrosting and cleaning, plug in and run a test cycle. Monitor ice thickness; if it grows excessively before harvest, the sensor or control board may be faulty.
