How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Unplug the unit before inspection.

- Inspect wiring: Check the sensor harness for damage and ensure connectors are fully seated.
- Replace sensor: Install a new ice-full sensor assembly if wiring is intact but the sensor does not respond.
- Control board: If a new sensor does not fix the issue, the main control board may need replacement.
