Possible Causes

Freezer temperature above ice-making threshold, Failed freezer evaporator fan, Door gasket leak near ice maker, Blocked air ducts to ice compartment

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Avoid leaving doors open for extended periods; this can damage the compressor.

  • Check actual temperature: Place a thermometer in the freezer and verify it reaches at least -15°C to -18°C. If not, address general cooling issues first.
  • Inspect door gasket: Run your hand around the gasket near the ice maker area to feel for cold air leaks. Replace damaged gaskets.
  • Check for obstructions: Ensure food packages are not blocking air vents leading to the ice maker compartment.
  • Allow recovery: After heavy use or warm loading, allow the unit several hours to stabilize. The ice maker will resume once temperature is adequate.
  • If E9 persists in normal conditions: The ice maker temperature sensor or control logic may be faulty and require professional diagnosis.
