Water supply turned off, Clogged external water filter, Failed water inlet valve, Frozen water line inside cabinet

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Turn off water supply and unplug the unit before disconnecting any water lines.

  • Verify water supply: Confirm the shutoff valve feeding the Hotpoint ice maker is fully open. Test water flow by disconnecting the line at the unit and briefly opening the valve into a bucket.
  • Check filter: If your model uses an external or inline filter, replace it if it is older than the recommended interval or appears clogged.
  • Inspect for frozen lines: Feel along the water line inside the cabinet (if accessible). If frozen, unplug the unit and allow it to thaw. Improve room temperature or insulation to prevent recurrence.
  • Test water inlet valve: Listen for a humming sound when the unit should be filling. If silent and no water enters, test and replace the water inlet valve as needed.

After restoring water flow, allow several hours for the unit to complete a full ice-making cycle.
