How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Turn off water supply (if plumbed) and unplug the unit before servicing the inlet valve.

Verify water supply: For models with a direct water line, ensure the shutoff valve is fully open and the supply hose is not kinked.
Clean inlet screen: Disconnect the water line from the back of the ice maker and remove any small filter screen inside the inlet fitting. Rinse to remove sediment and reinstall.
Check for leaks: Inspect the inlet hose and fittings for leaks or cracks. Replace damaged hoses.
Test valve (advanced): With the unit unplugged, measure resistance across the inlet valve coil. A reading of open circuit indicates a failed coil that must be replaced.
Inspect wiring: Confirm the valve connector is firmly attached and wires are not damaged.
Replace inlet valve: If the valve does not open when energized or is leaking internally, install a new Kismile-compatible water inlet valve.

E9 error; unit may continuously fill or fail to fill with water, sometimes accompanied by beeping.
