Possible Causes

Low water pressure, Partially clogged water filter, Restricted water inlet valve screen, Incorrect freezer temperature

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off the ice maker before working on water supply components.

Steps to improve ice quality:

  • 1. Check water pressure: Dispense water at the door; a weak stream indicates low pressure. Ensure the supply valve is fully open and the line is not kinked.
  • 2. Replace water filter: Install a new water filter and flush thoroughly.
  • 3. Inspect inlet valve screen: Shut off water, disconnect the supply line at the water inlet valve, and inspect the screen for debris. Clean or replace the valve if clogged.
  • 4. Adjust freezer temperature: Set to around 0°F. Too cold or too warm can affect ice formation.
