Possible Causes

How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: No internal high-voltage work is required for basic checks.
- Enable ice maker: Use the control panel to ensure the ice maker is switched on and not in any energy-saving or vacation mode.
- Prime water line: If possible, run water through the line or dispenser to purge air.
- Power reset: Disconnect power for 5 minutes, then restore to force a fresh initialization.
- Check fill tube: Inspect the fill tube for ice blockage and defrost gently if needed.
Note: Allow several hours for the first batch of ice after reactivation.
