What Goes Wrong With Ice Machines

Scale and cleaningMinerals in the water coat the freezing plate or grid and the water system, which slows ice production and can stop harvest. Many slow-machine calls start with a cleaning cycle.
Water supply and valveA partly closed supply valve, a kinked line or a failed inlet valve leaves the machine short of water and making thin or no ice.
Controls and sensorsBin sensors, thermistors and the control board decide when to make ice and when the bin is full. A sensor fault can make a machine stop with an empty bin.

Ice Machine Problems Worth a Call

  • Loud noises during harvest or from the pump
  • No ice, or far less ice than it used to make
  • Ice tastes or smells off
  • White scale on the visible water parts

What an Ice Machine Technician Checks

Scale and cleaningThe freezing plate or grid and the water system are inspected for scale. A cleaning or descaling cycle is run with the cleaner the manufacturer specifies.
Condenser and grilleThe condenser behind the front grille is cleaned, since built-in machines rely on front airflow to shed heat.
Harvest and sensorsThe harvest cycle, the bin thermostat or sensor and the water level sensor are checked so the machine makes ice and stops when the bin is full.

Ice Machine Repair FAQs: South Burlington, VT

What does an undercounter ice maker repair cost?
Most companies charge a service call or diagnostic fee that is often applied to the repair if you go ahead. Cleaning and descaling, a water valve, a drain pump or a control are common jobs. Our ice maker repair cost guide lists published ranges.
Why is my undercounter ice maker leaking?
Most leaks come from the drain: a clogged or kinked drain line, a failed drain pump or a drain that is not sloped correctly. Supply line connections are the next place to look.
Why did my ice machine stop making ice?
The usual causes are a closed or restricted water supply, heavy scale on the freezing plate or water system, a drain or pump problem, a dirty condenser, a room that is too hot or too cold for the machine, or a failed control. A technician checks each in order.
Is the helpline a manufacturer?
No. We are an independent directory and are not affiliated with any appliance manufacturer. Our helpline connects you with a participating independent technician. If your machine is still under manufacturer coverage, contact the brand first.
