Frigidaire Ice and Freezer Features
What Makes Frigidaire Ice Maker Repairs Different
Frigidaire refrigerators run a defrost cycle where a defrost heater melts frost off the evaporator and the water drips to a drain pan. Source: Frigidaire - Refrigerators Noise Guide
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
What Frigidaire Says to Check First
- Ice dispenser not working. Check that the display lock is off, both doors are fully closed and the auger is not frozen, and remove the bin to clear any ice jammed between the ice maker and bin. Source: Frigidaire - Refrigerators - No Ice
- Ice maker not making ice. On a new install, confirm the ice maker is turned on and the water line is primed, and allow up to 24 hours after the unit cools before expecting ice. Source: Frigidaire - My refrigerator was just installed and the ice maker is not working, how do I fix it?
