Possible Causes

Partially clogged water inlet valve, Misadjusted ice thickness probe, Low water pressure, Scale buildup on water distribution system

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Turn off water and power before disassembly.

  • Check water pressure and flow: Confirm strong flow at the supply line. Clean the inlet valve screen and replace any clogged external filters.
  • Clean water distribution: Remove and clean the spray bar or water curtain that distributes water over the evaporator. Use descaler to remove mineral deposits.
  • Adjust thickness probe: Slightly increase the target thickness per the service manual so the unit waits longer before harvest.

After adjustments, observe several cycles to confirm cube size has improved.
