Possible Causes
Intermittent ice tray motor fault, Pump overheating and cutting out, Loose motor connector, Control PCB logic fault
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug before inspection.
- 1. Observe cycle: Watch the machine during operation to see whether the ice tray is tilting correctly and water is circulating when it stops making ice.
- 2. Check motor and pump temperature: After stopping, carefully feel the tray motor and water pump (they may be warm but not burning hot). Overheating components may be failing.
- 3. Inspect connectors: Reseat the connectors for the tray motor and pump on the main control PCB.
- 4. Replace suspect parts: If either the tray motor or pump stops intermittently, replace the faulty component. If both are fine, the main control PCB may need replacement.
