How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: No electrical work required for basic checks; unplug if removing internal panels.
Steps:
- Empty bin: Discard clumped ice and clean the bin with warm water, then dry thoroughly.
- Check door seal: Inspect the door gasket around the ice compartment for gaps, tears, or dirt. Clean and reseat as needed.
- Adjust temperature: Ensure the ice compartment or freezer is set to the recommended temperature (typically around −18 °C).
- Monitor fill: Confirm that the ice level sensor stops production when the bin is full. If it does not, the sensor may need cleaning or replacement.
