Why Ice Makers Stop Making Ice

Water filter and pressureA clogged filter or low household pressure slows the flow the ice maker depends on. Filters are a routine replacement, and many ice makers need a minimum pressure to fill properly.
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.
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.

Ice Maker Problems Worth a Service Call

  • Ice maker or ice compartment frozen over
  • Small, hollow or misshapen cubes
  • No ice at all, or only a few cubes a day
  • Ice clumping in the bucket

What an Ice Maker Technician Checks

Dispenser and augerIf ice is made but will not come out, the auger motor, bucket, chute flap and dispenser switch are checked.
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.
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.

If the freezer itself is running warm, fix that first; an ice maker will not harvest until its mold is cold enough. See freezer repair for Fort Wright. Freezer repair in Fort Wright.

Around Fort Wright

Most ice maker calls in Fort Wright come down to the same handful of causes: water supply and pressure, a frozen fill tube, the water inlet valve, freezer temperature and the ice maker assembly itself.

Kentucky has no license category for appliance repair as such; the Department of Housing, Buildings and Construction licenses trades such as HVAC (whose scope covers installing and repairing heating, burner and cooling systems), plumbing and electrical.

In Kentucky, you can check a license with the Department of Housing, Buildings and Construction License Search and Verification or report a problem to the Kentucky Attorney General, Office of Consumer Protection.

Ice Maker Repair FAQs: Fort Wright, KY

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.
Is there a reset button on my ice maker?
Many ice makers have a test or reset button or a sequence in the control panel, and the steps differ by brand and model. Check the use and care guide for yours. If a reset does not restore ice production, a part has usually failed.
Why is my ice maker making tiny cubes?
Small or hollow cubes usually mean the ice maker is not getting enough water: a clogged filter, low household pressure, a partly closed supply valve or a weak water inlet valve. A technician can test the flow and the valve.
Do technicians install ice maker kits?
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.
