GE Ice and Freezer Features
What Makes GE Ice Maker Repairs Different
GE says the icemaker mold has to get down to about 16°F before a cycle will start, so a warm freezer slows or stops ice production. Source: GE Appliances - Refrigerator - Icemaker Not Producing Ice
Depending on the model, the ice maker can sit in the freezer, in the fresh food section or in the fresh food door, and daily output runs roughly 3 to 4.5 pounds by style. Source: GE Appliances - How much ice should I get in a day?
Common GE Ice Maker and Freezer Problems
- Freezer warm on the outside. GE says chest freezers shed heat through the cabinet and uprights have case heaters to stop sweating, so a warm exterior is normal if clearance is adequate. Source: GE Appliances - Warm Freezer Exterior
- Ice maker leaking. Unplug the refrigerator, then check the water line fittings, water valve, fill tube extension and defrost drain, and make sure the unit is level. Source: GE Appliances - Why is my ice maker leaking and dripping water?
