Possible Causes

Faulty ice maker fill valve control,Fill tube not positioned correctly,Freezer temperature set too warm,Ice level sensor not stopping production

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off the ice maker function and unplug the refrigerator before adjustments.

Steps:

  • 1. Check freezer temperature: Ensure the freezer is set to around -18°C. Too warm can cause ice to fuse together.
  • 2. Inspect fill tube: Make sure the water fill tube is correctly aligned over the ice tray and not splashing water outside.
  • 3. Examine ice level sensor: Some V-ZUG models use an optical sensor or mechanical arm. Ensure it moves freely and is not blocked by ice.
  • 4. Replace ice maker assembly: If the unit continues to overfill despite correct settings, replace the complete V-ZUG ice maker module.

Warning: Remove large ice clumps carefully to avoid damaging the bin or auger.
