Possible Causes

Failed touch control panel, Moisture intrusion behind keypad, Loose ribbon cable between UI and main board, Cracked control overlay

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the ice maker before removing the control panel.

  • Dry the panel: If the panel recently got wet, allow it to dry completely for several hours with the unit unplugged.
  • Inspect ribbon cable: Remove the front bezel to access the user interface board. Reseat the ribbon cable connecting the UI to the main control board.
  • Check for damage: Look for cracks in the overlay, corrosion on connectors, or burn marks on the UI PCB.
  • Test buttons: With power restored, test each button. If some or all buttons are unresponsive and E15 persists, the UI panel is likely defective.
  • Replace UI assembly: Install a new Magic Chef control panel or keypad assembly. Transfer any decorative trim as needed and reconnect the ribbon cable securely.
