Possible Causes

Ice maker module failure, Jammed ejector arm, Ice level sensor fault, Ice tray not filling due to blocked fill tube

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off the ice maker and unplug before handling the ice assembly.

Step-by-step checks:

  • 1. Check ice maker switch: Ensure the ice maker is turned ON and not in 'off' or 'clean' mode.
  • 2. Inspect for jams: Remove the ice bin and look for clumped ice blocking the mechanism. Clear any obstructions.
  • 3. Check fill tube: Inspect the plastic tube that feeds water into the ice tray for ice blockage. Thaw gently with warm air.
  • 4. Reset module: Some Indesit ice makers have a reset button; press and hold as per the user manual.

When to call a technician: If the tray never fills or cycles, the ice maker module or control board may need replacement.
