Possible Causes
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the unit before cleaning or inspecting internal components. Do not attempt to access refrigerant lines.
Step-by-step checks:
- 1. Clean condenser coil: Ensure the condenser coil and fan are clean and unobstructed to maximize cooling efficiency.
- 2. Check ambient temperature: Verify the unit is operating within the recommended room temperature range.
- 3. Observe frost pattern: With panels removed (and power on), a technician would look for an even frost pattern on the evaporator. A partial frost pattern often indicates low refrigerant.
Important: Low refrigerant, compressor weakness, or capillary blockages are sealed-system issues that require specialized tools and must be handled by a certified refrigeration technician.
When to call a technician: If cleaning and ventilation checks do not restore normal ice production, schedule professional service for sealed-system diagnosis.
