How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the ice maker before cleaning sensors.
- Clean sensors: Wipe the ice full sensor lenses with a soft, damp cloth. Dry thoroughly to prevent false readings.
- Remove obstructions: Ensure no plastic bags, labels, or reflective surfaces are hanging into the bin area.
- Check bracket: Confirm the sensor bracket is not bent and that the emitter and receiver face each other directly.
- Test with basket removed: Plug in and power on with the basket removed. If the ICE FULL indication remains, the sensor assembly is likely faulty and should be replaced.
