Frigidaire Ice and Freezer Features
What a Frigidaire Technician Deals With
Air left in a newly connected water line can cause two or three empty ice cycles, and running the ice maker with no water supply can make the fill valve chatter loudly. Source: Frigidaire - My refrigerator was just installed and the ice maker is not working, how do I fix it?
Frigidaire's convertible chest freezers are manual defrost and drain through drain plugs, and the manual lists an E2 display code as a temperature sensor failure that needs service. Source: Frigidaire - Chest Freezer Use & Care Guide (A31283301en-US)
What Frigidaire Says to Check First
- Freezer not freezing. Allow 24 hours to stabilize after install or an outage, confirm power and settings near 0°F, test the door seal with a dollar bill and remove items blocking the vents. Source: Frigidaire - Freezer - Not Freezing or Not Cooling
- Ice maker making too little ice. Frigidaire says a typical ice maker makes about 2 to 3 pounds a day, so check for a freezer set too warm, an old filter or a kinked supply line. Source: Frigidaire - What should I do if my ice maker is not making enough ice in my refrigerator?

Local Notes for Pella
Most ice maker calls in Pella come down to the same handful of causes: water supply and pressure, a frozen fill tube, the water inlet valve, freezer temperature and the ice maker assembly itself.
Iowa does not issue a general appliance repair technician license; the Plumbing and Mechanical Systems Board licenses plumbing, HVAC, refrigeration and hydronic work, and state law carves out a special restricted license only for utility employees who repair appliances.

In Iowa, you can check a license with the Iowa DIAL Find a Record or License (Plumbing & Mechanical Systems Board public search) or report a problem to the Iowa Attorney General Consumer Protection Division.
