4. ICE MAKER DOES NOT PRODUCE ENOUGH ICE
• V
erify freezer temperature is 5°F or colder
, and that the airflow is not blocked.
• Make sure that the ice maker is receiving the proper amount of water (8 cubes = 4.4 oz
. (130 cc) of water).
• Look for high ice usage by customer
.
• At 0°F
, 80 to 106 cubes of ice in a 24-hour period is normal.
Initiate a forced harvest
(see ice maker tech sheet).
Unplug refrigerator

• V
erify freezer temperature is 5°F or colder
. Ice production will be slow from 10°F to 15°F
, and will stop at around 18°F
.
• Ice maker should be in the “park” (2:00) position.
* V
oltage will be present on the tan wire of the ice maker for 7 to 8 seconds during harvest
just before it reaches the “park”
position. This
voltage is in series with the mold heater
, and will be between 80 and 105 volts ac. The voltage on the t
an wire signals the val
ve to fill the ice
maker
. Line voltage must alway
s be present across the BK & WH wires at the valve. 14 vdc must
always be present across the RD/Y
L
and
BK/YL
wires on the valves.

ART
Check the IDI
optics (see ice maker
tech sheet). Did the
optics test pass
?
Check for ice in
ice maker mold. Is ice
present?
Check the water
dispenser operation.
Does it operate normally

Check
water line
between smart valve
and ice maker for kinks or
blockage. Fill tube is
clear?
Check
for normal
conditions, as shown in
the footnote*. Are conditions normal?
