How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the ice maker and turn off the water supply before internal checks.
Steps to troubleshoot:
- Confirm power and settings: Ensure the unit is plugged in, switched on, and not in a cleaning or standby mode.
- Check water supply: Verify the shutoff valve is open and the supply line is not kinked. Test water flow at the inlet by briefly disconnecting the line (with water off first).
- Listen for compressor: After turning the unit on, listen for the compressor starting. If it never starts, inspect the start relay and overload, and test for voltage at the compressor terminals.
- Observe fill and freeze: Watch a cycle: does the tray or evaporator fill with water? If not, test and replace the water inlet valve. If it fills but never freezes, suspect a refrigeration or control issue.
- Check for error codes: Some Haier models log errors even if not displayed continuously. Enter diagnostic mode per the service manual.
When to call a technician: If the compressor does not run despite proper voltage, or if sealed system issues are suspected, contact a licensed technician.
