Possible Causes

Vibrating compressor mounting, Loose condenser fan shroud, Unit not level, Internal tubing touching cabinet

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the unit before touching internal components.

  • Level the appliance: Use a spirit level and adjust the feet so the Indesit ice maker is stable and does not rock.
  • Check compressor mounts: Access the rear and inspect rubber grommets under the compressor. Replace any perished mounts and ensure mounting bolts are snug but not overtightened.
  • Secure fan shrouds and panels: Tighten any loose screws on the condenser fan housing and external panels that may vibrate.
  • Inspect refrigerant lines: Gently bend any copper lines that are touching the cabinet to create a small clearance, avoiding kinks.
