Overfill or Warm Bin Condition
Ice cubes are too large, fused together, or wet and slushy
Advertisements
Possible Causes
Stuck water level float, misadjusted fill time, poor bin ventilation, high bin temperature
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the ice maker before adjusting internal components.
- Check water level control: Inspect the float or level sensor in the reservoir. Ensure it moves freely and is not stuck in the high position. Clean scale and debris.
- Verify bin temperature: Make sure the bin door closes fully and the gasket seals. Warm air entering the bin can partially melt ice, causing clumping.
- Run cleaning cycle: Mineral buildup can affect water distribution and cause uneven freezing. Descale the system per the manual.
- Control adjustment: If your model allows fill-time adjustment via service mode, reduce the fill time slightly to prevent overlarge cubes.
