How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the unit before tightening any screws or touching moving parts.

  • Level the unit: Use a spirit level and adjust the feet or reposition the ice maker so it sits flat and stable.
  • Check external contact: Ensure the cabinet is not touching walls or other appliances that can amplify vibration.
  • Inspect fan: Remove the rear panel and check that the fan blade is not rubbing against the shroud or wires. Bend the shroud slightly or reposition wires as needed.
  • Tighten hardware: Gently tighten accessible screws around the compressor bracket and internal panels to reduce rattling.
