Possible Causes
Unit not level, Loose compressor mounting, Fan blade imbalance, Internal components contacting cabinet
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the unit before adjustments.
- Level the cabinet: Adjust the leveling feet so the ice maker is stable and does not rock when pushed.
- Check compressor mounts: Inspect rubber grommets and mounting bolts. Replace worn grommets and tighten loose fasteners.
- Inspect fan blades: Ensure the condenser fan blade is not bent or missing pieces. Replace if damaged.
- Reposition internal parts: Make sure tubing, wiring, and panels are not touching the compressor or other vibrating components.
- Re-test: Plug in and observe operation. Minor vibration is normal; loud banging or walking is not.
