How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety First: Unplug before accessing internal components.

  • Step 1 – Monitor water supply: Check for timed irrigation systems or other appliances that may temporarily reduce water pressure.
  • Step 2 – Check for overheating: Ensure condenser is clean and fan is running; overheating can cause safety devices to trip.
  • Step 3 – Inspect ice level sensor: Clean and secure connections to prevent intermittent readings.

If the problem is sporadic and not tied to water or airflow, a technician may need to monitor control board operation.
