SERVICE DIAGNOSIS: Condition - No Ice Being Produced

STATUS:

NOTHING OPERATES

A. Check: Voltage to the unit, restore it if there is none. Compare to the nameplate.

B. Check: The master switch, switch ON if off.

C. Check: The reset switch, (on the circuit board): depress and release the switch. If the still does
not start, check: the spout switch.

D. Check the spout switch. It opens from excess pressure of ice inside the ice chute: this should only
happen when the machine does not shut off when the ice storage bin is full. This switch will reset
when the ice melts, but the machine will not resart until the reset switch on the circuit board is pressed.

E. Check the water level in the reservoir. The machine will not run if there is not enough water in the
reservoir.

1. Restore/adjust water level. See the next step.
