Possible Causes

Blocked or failed ice-full sensor, Disconnected sensor wiring, Faulty control board ignoring sensor input

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the Klarstein ice maker before working near the sensor or bin.

  • Clean sensor: If equipped with an infrared sensor, clean both sides of the sensor windows with a soft cloth.
  • Check bin position: Ensure the ice basket is correctly installed and not bypassing the sensor beam.
  • Inspect wiring: Access the sensor module and verify that its connector is firmly attached to the harness and PCB.
  • Test sensor (advanced): With a multimeter or by entering diagnostic mode (if available), verify that the sensor output changes when blocked/unblocked.

If the sensor is working but the unit still does not stop, the main control PCB may need replacement.
