How Frigidaire Ice Makers and Freezers Work
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?
On dispenser models the bin uses an auger that can freeze in place when ice melts and refreezes, and a rotated auger has to be realigned in 45-degree steps before the bin will seat. Source: Frigidaire - Refrigerators - No Ice
