Possible Causes
Ice basket full, Misaligned ice basket, Faulty bin full switch, Blocked bin sensor
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the unit before reaching into the ice compartment.
Steps to correct:
- Empty basket: Remove excess ice from the basket to ensure it is not overfilled.
- Reseat basket: Make sure the basket is properly seated in its guides and not lifted too high, which can trigger the full sensor.
- Clean sensor: If your model uses a mechanical lever or optical sensor, clean the area to remove frost or debris.
- Test switch: For lever-type sensors, gently move the lever and listen for a click. If no click or if the unit still shows P2 with an empty bin, the switch may be faulty and require replacement.
- Restart: Plug the unit back in and restart the ice-making cycle.
When to call a technician: If P2 persists despite an empty, correctly seated basket, the sensor or control board may need professional service.
