Possible Causes
Low water level in reservoir, partially clogged water inlet valve, misadjusted ice thickness sensor, scaled water distribution tube
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Disconnect power and water before disassembly.
- Check water level: Inspect the reservoir during operation. If low, clean the water level float and ensure proper operation.
- Clean distribution tube: Remove and clean the water distribution tube or spray bar to ensure even water flow over the evaporator.
- Adjust thickness: If your Maytag model allows, slightly increase the ice thickness setting per the manual.
- Inspect inlet valve: Clean the inlet screen and replace the valve if flow remains weak.
