Ice bin overflows with ice and does not stop production
Advertisements
Possible Causes
Blocked or failed bin full sensor, Disconnected sensor harness, Stuck mechanical bin arm, Faulty main PCB input
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Unplug before working in the bin area.
- Clean sensor: For IR sensors, clean the emitter and receiver windows. For mechanical arms, remove ice buildup and ensure free movement.
- Check harness: Verify the bin sensor wiring is connected securely to the control board.
- Test function: Manually block the sensor or lift the arm (with power on) to see if the unit responds by stopping ice production.
- Replace sensor: If there is no response, replace the bin full sensor assembly. If the new sensor does not work, the control board may be defective.
