Possible Causes
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off the ice maker and unplug the refrigerator before handling the ice assembly.
Step-by-step checks:
- 1. Reset ice maker: Turn the ice maker OFF for 5 minutes, then ON again. Some Indesit models have a reset button on the ice module.
- 2. Check for jams: Remove the ice bin and inspect the ice maker for stuck cubes or broken plastic parts. Clear any obstructions.
- 3. Inspect wiring: Ensure the harness to the ice maker is fully connected and not pinched by panels.
- 4. Test fill: After restoring power, listen for the water valve energizing. If no fill occurs but the valve is known good, the ice maker module may be faulty.
When to call a technician: Ice maker module or sensor replacement can be done by a skilled DIYer, but if F14 persists, professional diagnosis of the control logic and water system is recommended.
