Possible Causes
Ice thickness sensor misadjusted, Faulty thickness probe, Harvest cycle not initiating on time, Control board timing fault
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the ice maker before adjusting sensors.
Steps to correct:
- Adjust thickness setting: Reduce the ice thickness setting via the control panel or mechanical adjustment screw, following the user manual.
- Clean thickness sensor: Remove mineral deposits from the probe or sensor to ensure accurate detection.
- Observe harvest timing: Watch a full cycle to see if harvest begins promptly once ice reaches the sensor. If harvest is delayed, the sensor may be faulty and should be replaced.
- Check for firmware reset: Perform a power reset to clear any control glitches.
When to call a technician: If adjustments and sensor replacement do not resolve the issue, the control board may need professional evaluation.
