Possible Causes
Stuck or failed start button on control panel, Faulty user interface board, Main control board logic failure, Ice full or add water sensor stuck active
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the unit before removing the control panel.
Steps to troubleshoot:
- Check indicators: Ensure that "Add Water" or "Ice Full" indicators are not lit. If they are, resolve those conditions first.
- Reset unit: Unplug for 5–10 minutes, then plug back in and attempt to start a cycle.
- Test buttons: Press each button firmly. If one feels stuck or does not click, the control panel / keypad may be faulty.
- Inspect UI board: Remove the front panel and check the user interface board for corrosion or loose ribbon cables.
- Replace UI or main board: If the display works but the unit will not start, replace the user interface board. If that does not help, the main control board may need replacement.
