How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety First: Disconnect power before accessing the ice room fan or sensor.
Steps:
- Check ice bucket and chute: Remove the ice bucket and clear any clumped ice blocking the chute or vents.
- Inspect door seal around ice area: Ensure the ice compartment door or flap closes fully and the gasket is intact.
- Verify ice room fan: With the unit powered and calling for ice production, listen for the small fan in the ice room. If silent, the fan or its wiring may be faulty.
- Inspect and replace components: Access the ice room fan and thermistor behind the ice maker cover. Replace any failed Midea ice room fan motor or thermistor.
- Test: Restore power and allow 24 hours for ice production to normalize and the H3 code to clear.
