Possible Causes
Dirty or blocked ice full sensor, Misaligned infrared sensor pair, Faulty ice full sensor PCB, Reflective object in sensor path
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Unplug the ice maker before cleaning sensor components.
Steps:
- Empty and reposition basket: Remove the ice basket, empty it completely, and reinstall it correctly in its guides.
- Clean sensor windows: Locate the small sensor windows on each side of the ice basket area. Clean them gently with a soft, dry cloth.
- Remove reflective items: Ensure there are no shiny or reflective objects (foil, metal tools) inside the basket area that could reflect the IR beam.
- Check alignment: Verify that both sensor modules are firmly mounted and directly facing each other. Tighten any loose screws.
- Test operation: Plug in and start a cycle. If 'ICE FULL' appears immediately, the sensor may be faulty.
- Replace sensor assembly: Install a new OBH Nordica-compatible ice full sensor/IR board if cleaning and alignment do not resolve the issue.
