How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Disconnect power before working on controls. Do not leave a malfunctioning ice maker running unattended.
- Step 1 – Confirm settings: Verify the ice function is set to OFF in the Fisher & Paykel user interface.
- Step 2 – Power reset: Unplug the unit for 10 minutes, then restore power and recheck behavior.
- Step 3 – Inspect switch: If your model has a physical ice maker switch, test it for continuity in ON and OFF positions. Replace if it does not open the circuit when OFF.
- Step 4 – Replace module: If the ice maker still runs with the switch off, replace the ice maker control module.
If the problem persists, the main control board may be at fault and should be serviced by a technician.
