Ice maker will not start at all; display is on but no cycle begins when pressing start.

Safety: No internal work is needed initially; keep the unit plugged in for control checks.

• Check control lock: Some Indesit models have a child lock. Hold the lock/unlock key combination for several seconds to disable it (see user manual).
• Verify door and bin: Ensure the door is fully closed and the ice bin is correctly positioned to engage any safety switches.
• Try alternate keys: If the start button is unresponsive but other keys work, the start key contact may be faulty; the UI panel may need replacement.
• Power reset: Unplug for 5 minutes, then reconnect and attempt to start a cycle again.
