Hisense ice maker makes loud grinding or rattling noises during operation.

Safety: Unplug the unit before touching moving parts.

• Identify noise source: Remove panels and run the unit briefly (with caution) to locate whether the noise comes from the pump, fan, or compressor area.
• Check for ice interference: Inspect the evaporator fan and surrounding area for ice buildup or loose wiring rubbing the blades. Defrost and reposition as needed.
• Tighten mounts: Tighten screws on compressor brackets, fan housings, and cabinet panels. Add foam or rubber pads where tubing vibrates against metal.
• Replace noisy pump or fan: If the pump or fan motor is the clear source of grinding or squealing, replace the assembly with a Hisense-compatible part.
