Possible Causes

Stalled ice maker motor, Jammed ice cubes in mold, Broken ice maker gears, Faulty ice maker module

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the refrigerator and turn off the ice maker (switch or control setting) before working on it.

Clear jams:

  • Remove the ice bin and inspect the ice maker for stuck or oversized cubes.
  • Gently remove any jammed ice with a plastic utensil; do not use metal tools that can damage the mold.

Reset the ice maker:

  • Some Blomberg models have a test or reset button on the ice maker module. Press and hold as specified in the user manual to initiate a test cycle.
  • Restore power and observe if the ice maker completes a full cycle without error.

Inspect wiring:

  • Check the harness between the ice maker and the cabinet for loose connections or damage.

Note: If EA returns after clearing jams and resetting, the ice maker assembly or its motor is likely defective and should be replaced as a complete unit.
