Symptom
Display works but some buttons do not respond
Keypad / Touch Control Failure
Symptom
Evaporator does not frost at all while compressor is running
No Cooling – Sealed System Failure
Symptom
Evaporator plate freezes into a solid block of ice and does not release
Harvest Failure / Defrost Timing Issue
Symptom
Ice appears cloudy or white instead of clear
Entrained Air / Mineral Content in Ice
Symptom
Ice bin overflows with ice and does not stop production
Bin Full Detection Failure
Symptom
Ice cubes are too large or fused together in sheets
Excessive Water Fill / Delayed Harvest
Symptom
Ice cubes are too small or hollow
Insufficient Water Fill / Premature Harvest
Symptom
Ice has a bad taste or odor
Contaminated Water Path / Biofilm or Odor Absorption
Symptom
Ice maker interior shows heavy scale and slime buildup
Lack of Regular Cleaning / Sanitation
Symptom
Ice maker is leaking water onto the floor
External Water Leak
Symptom
Ice maker is very noisy during operation (grinding, rattling, or buzzing)
Mechanical Noise – Fan, Pump, or Compressor Related
Symptom
Ice maker powers on but will not start a cycle (stuck in standby)
Control Logic / User Interface Lock
Symptom
Ice maker produces ice but shuts off earlier than expected each day
Capacity Limitation / Thermal Protection
Symptom
Ice maker produces ice very slowly compared to normal
Reduced Ice Production – Thermal/Flow Inefficiency
Symptom
Ice maker runs but produces no ice at all
No Ice Production – General Failure
Symptom
Ice maker stops after a few minutes and then restarts repeatedly
Short Cycling – Overheat or Sensor Misread
Symptom
Ice maker vibrates excessively or walks on the counter/floor
Excessive Vibration / Poor Leveling
Symptom
Ice maker will not power on at all (no lights, no sounds)
No Power / Electrical Supply Failure
Symptom
Ice melts quickly or bin temperature seems too warm
Poor Ice Storage Cooling / Insulation Issue
Symptom
Loud knocking or banging sound during harvest
Harvest Mechanism Impact / Ice Tray Misalignment
Symptom
Unit stuck in cleaning mode and will not return to normal ice making
Control Mode Stuck / Software State Error
Symptom
Unit trips the household breaker or GFCI when starting
Electrical Short / Ground Fault
Symptom
Water leaking inside the ice bin or from the evaporator area
Internal Ice Compartment Leak / Poor Drainage
Symptom
Water pump runs but no water reaches the evaporator
Water Circulation Blockage
