Possible Causes
Low water level in reservoir, Partially clogged water pump inlet, Misadjusted ice thickness sensor, Scale buildup on evaporator
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Unplug the ice maker before cleaning internal components.
Steps:
- 1. Check water level: Fill the reservoir to the MAX line with clean, preferably filtered water. Ensure the tank is seated correctly.
- 2. Clean pump inlet and tray: Remove the reservoir and clean the pump intake screen and the ice-making tray with warm water and vinegar to remove mineral deposits.
- 3. Clean evaporator: Wipe the evaporator plate gently with a soft cloth and descaling solution to remove scale that can cause early ice release.
- 4. Inspect thickness sensor: Ensure the ice thickness sensor probe is correctly positioned and free of scale. Clean and realign if necessary.
Tip: Using filtered or distilled water reduces scale buildup and improves ice quality.
