What a Frigidaire Technician Deals With
An electric water valve opens to fill the ice maker, and a solenoid opens and closes the ice chute door during dispensing. Source: Frigidaire - Refrigerators Noise Guide
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?
What Frigidaire Says to Check First
- Freezer alarm sounding. The buzzer means the inside has warmed past 20°F, so check that the freezer is level and the door closes and seals, and keep it shut while it recovers. Source: Frigidaire - What does the alarm or "buzzer sound" mean?
- 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
