CORRECTION 

AUTOMATIC ICE MAKER (CONTINUED) 

Ice maker is not making 
enough ice. 

 

Ice maker is producing less ice 
than you expect. 

 
 
 
 

 

Freezer is not cold enough. 

 

 

Household water line valve is 
not completely open. 

 

Check to see if water 
dispenser is dispensing slower 
than normal. 

 

Side mounted ice maker should produce 4 to 4.5 
pounds (approximately 4 quarts) of ice every 24 
hours. A rear mounted ice maker should produce 3 
to 4 pounds (approximately 3½ quarts) of ice every 
24 hours. 

Extra Ice

 option should produce 25% to 

50% more ice every 24 hours. 

 

See 

PROBLEM

 section 

TEMPERATURES ARE 

TOO WARM.

 

 

Turn on household water line valve. 

 

 

If it is, replace the ice & water filter cartridge. 

Ice maker will not stop 
making ice. 

 

Ice maker wire signal arm is 
being held down by some item 
in the freezer. 

 

Move item and release wire signal arm. Remove 
any ice cubes that are frozen together over the wire 
signal arm. 

Ice cubes are freezing 
together. 

 

Ice cubes are not being used 
frequently enough. 

 

Ice cubes are hollow (partially 
frozen cubes with water 
inside). 

 

Freezer control is set too 
warm. 

 

Very little food in freezer. 

 

Remove ice container and discard ice from 
container. Ice maker will produce fresh supply. 

 

The ice & water filter cartridge may be clogged. 
Replace filter cartridge. 

 

 

Set freezer control to colder setting. Allow 24 hours 
for temperature to stabilize. 

 

Add more food to freezer. 

Ice has bad odor and 
taste. 

 

Ice has picked up odor or 
flavor from strong food stored 
in refrigerator or freezer. 

 

Water running to ice maker 
has poor taste or odor. 

 

Ice not used frequently enough. 

 

Cover foods tightly. Discard stale ice. Ice maker will 
produce fresh supply. 

 

 

Add filter to water supply line. Consult a water 
purifying company. 

 

Discard stale ice. 

ICE DISPENSER 

Dispenser will not 
dispense ice. 

 

Ice storage container is empty. 

 

 

Freezer temperature is set too 
warm. 

 

 

Household water line valve is 
not open. 

 

 

Freezer door is not closed. 

 

Ice dispensing arm has been 
held in for more than 4-5 
minutes. 

 

When the first supply of ice is dropped into the 
container, the dispenser should operate. 

 

Turn freezer control to a higher setting so that ice 
cubes will be made. When first supply of ice is 
made, dispenser should operate. 

 

Open household water line valve. Allow sufficient 
time for the ice to be made. When ice is made, the 
dispenser should operate. 

 

Ensure freezer door is closed. 

 

Motor is overloaded. Motor overload protector will 
reset in approximately 3 minutes. Ice can then be 
dispensed. 

Ice dispenser is 
jammed. 

 

Ice has melted and frozen 
around auger due to infrequent 
use, temperature fluctuations, 
and/or power outages. 

 

Ice cubes are jammed 
between ice maker and back 
of ice container. 

 

Ice cubes are frozen together. 

 

 

Ice cubes are hollow     
(partially frozen cubes with 
water inside). 

 

Remove ice container, thaw, and empty the 
contents. Clean container, wipe dry, and replace in 
proper position. When new ice is made, dispenser 
should operate. 

 

Remove ice cubes that are jamming the dispenser. 

 
 

 

Use the dispenser often so that cubes do not freeze 
together. 

 

The ice & water filter cartridge could be clogged. 
Replace the filter cartridge. Dispensing system 
operates best at 30 – 100 psi water pressure. Well 
water pressures should fall within this range.
