Possible Causes

Corrupted control PCB firmware, Loose display-to-main-board connector, Power surge damage to microcontroller, Oxidized PCB connectors

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the unit before accessing the control panel.

Steps:

  • Hard reset: Disconnect the ice maker from power for at least 10 minutes. Press and hold the power button (if accessible) for 10 seconds while unplugged to discharge residual power, then reconnect.
  • Check control connections: If you can safely remove the top/control cover, inspect the ribbon cable and connectors between the display board and main PCB. Reseat them firmly.
  • Surge protection: After reset, plug the unit into a properly grounded outlet, preferably via a surge protector.

If E7 returns immediately after a hard reset and connector check, the control PCB is likely defective and should be replaced as a complete module.
