The Usual Ice Maker Culprits in Oak Brook

Water inlet valveThe valve on the back of the refrigerator opens to fill the ice maker. A valve that fails or loses pressure leaves the ice maker dry or makes small, hollow cubes.
Freezer temperatureIce makers will not harvest until the mold is cold enough. A freezer running warm stops ice production long before the food starts to soften.
Ice maker assemblyThe ice maker itself has a motor, a mold heater, a sensor or feeler arm and a control. When it fails, the whole assembly is usually replaced as a unit.

When to Call About Your Ice Maker

  • Ice maker clicks or hums but does not fill
  • Small, hollow or misshapen cubes
  • No ice at all, or only a few cubes a day
  • Ice tastes or smells off

Inside an Ice Maker Repair Visit

Water supplyThe supply valve, the line behind the refrigerator and the household pressure are checked. A kinked line or a nearly closed valve is a common, simple fix.
Freezer temperatureThe technician confirms the freezer is cold enough for the ice maker to harvest. A warm freezer is a freezer problem first and an ice maker problem second.
Fill tubeA frozen fill tube is thawed and the reason it froze, often a slow valve or low pressure, is tracked down so it does not happen again.

An ice maker is only as good as the freezer around it. When food is soft too, the repair is a freezer repair. Freezer repair in Oak Brook.

Ice Maker Repair FAQs: Oak Brook, IL

Why is my ice maker leaking?
Leaks often come from the water supply line, a loose connection at the inlet valve, a cracked fill tube, an ice maker that overfills, or a refrigerator that is not level. Shut off the water to the refrigerator and call a technician if you cannot see the source.
Can you install an ice maker or hook up a water line?
Many appliance repair companies install ice maker kits on refrigerators built to accept one and connect the water supply line. Ask when you call, and have the refrigerator model number ready so they can confirm which kit fits.
Why did my ice maker stop working?
The usual causes are a freezer that is not cold enough, a clogged water filter or low water pressure, a frozen fill tube, a failed water inlet valve, the ice maker switched off, or a failed ice maker assembly. Check the freezer temperature and the water dispenser first.
Why is there ice built up around my ice maker?
Ice buildup usually comes from a door or ice bucket that is not sealing, warm air reaching the ice compartment, a fill valve that lets too much water through or a failed heater or fan in the ice maker. A technician can find which one and clear it without damaging the parts.
