Possible Causes
Defective door switch, Misaligned door or panel, Broken switch actuator, Disconnected switch wiring
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Unplug the ice maker before inspecting switches.
- Locate door/panel switch: Identify the switch that detects whether the ice compartment door or service panel is closed.
- Check mechanical operation: Press the switch by hand; you should hear a distinct click. If it feels loose or does not click, replace the switch.
- Inspect alignment: Ensure the door or panel fully depresses the switch when closed. Adjust hinges or latches if necessary.
- Test continuity: With a multimeter, test the switch in open and closed positions. Replace if readings are not correct.
- Secure wiring: Confirm the switch wiring is firmly connected and not damaged.
