Possible Causes

Loose ice full sensor connector, Intermittent infrared sensor failure, Vibration causing misalignment, Control board input instability

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the unit before adjusting sensors.

Steps to stabilize ice level detection:

  • Secure connectors: Access the ice full sensor wiring and ensure the connector is firmly seated on the control board.
  • Reinforce mounting: Tighten any loose screws holding the sensor brackets. Add a small piece of foam or tape if needed to prevent vibration.
  • Clean lenses: Wipe the sensor windows to ensure a clear beam path.
  • Test with movement: Run the unit and gently tap the cabinet near the sensor. If ICE FULL triggers, the sensor may be failing.
  • Replace sensor: Install a new ice full infrared sensor assembly if intermittent faults continue.

When to call a professional: If a new sensor does not resolve the issue, the control board may need replacement.
