Defrost / Ice Release Timeout
E9
E9 error appears and the unit beeps; no ice is produced.
Low Refrigerant / Cooling System Protection
ICE_FULL
Display shows 'ICE FULL' or ice bucket icon even when the basket is empty; unit will not start a new cycle.
False Ice Bin Full Detection
Symptom
Buttons are unresponsive or require very hard pressing.
Worn or Contaminated Keypad
Symptom
Condensation forms heavily on the outside of the cabinet.
Excessive External Condensation
Symptom
Display is dim, flickering, or segments are missing.
Display Module / Power Regulation Issue
Symptom
Fan runs but compressor does not start; no cooling.
Compressor Start Failure
Symptom
Grinding or clicking noise when ice is being released.
Ice Shovel Gearbox Wear or Obstruction
Symptom
Ice cubes are too large and stick together in the basket.
Oversized Ice Production / Overfreezing
Symptom
Ice has a bad taste or odor.
Contaminated Water Circuit
Symptom
Ice maker does not power on at all; no lights or display when plugged in.
No Power / Main Supply Failure
Symptom
Ice maker produces ice, but cubes are very small or hollow.
Insufficient Water Flow to Evaporator
Symptom
Ice maker runs but produces no ice; evaporator does not get cold.
Loss of Cooling / Refrigeration Failure
Symptom
Ice melts quickly in the basket and storage area feels warm.
Poor Ice Storage Insulation / Fan Circulation Issue
Symptom
Ice production is very slow compared to normal.
Reduced Cooling Efficiency
Symptom
Ice sticks to the evaporator and does not drop into the basket.
Ice Sticking / Poor Release
Symptom
Unit emits a burning smell during operation.
Overheating Electrical Component
Symptom
Unit frequently stops with 'ICE FULL' even though the basket is only half full.
Premature Ice Bin Full Detection
Symptom
Unit makes loud rattling or vibrating noises during operation.
Excessive Vibration / Mechanical Noise
Symptom
Unit operates normally but occasionally freezes solid blocks of ice instead of cubes.
Ice Thickness Control Instability
Symptom
Unit powers on but does not start ice-making when START button is pressed.
Start Circuit / User Interface Fault
Symptom
Unit stops mid-cycle and all lights turn off, then comes back on later.
Thermal Overload / Overheating Protection
Symptom
Unit trips the household circuit breaker or blows fuses when turned on.
Electrical Short Circuit or Overload
Symptom
Water accumulates inside the cabinet or under the ice basket but not outside the unit.
Internal Condensate / Overflow Leak
Symptom
Water leaking from the bottom of the ice maker onto the countertop.
External Water Leak
Symptom
Water pump is very noisy or makes a buzzing sound but little water flows.
Water Pump Cavitation or Impeller Wear
