How KitchenAid Ice Makers and Freezers Work
The units run a defrost cycle with a defrost heater, and meltwater flows to a drain pan, which explains sizzling or gurgling sounds. Source: KitchenAid Product Help - Refrigerator Normal Sounds and Noises
What KitchenAid Says to Check First
- Small or hollow cubes. Keep the water filter current and check that the line behind the refrigerator is not kinked and the correct supply valve is installed, since low pressure causes small, hollow cubes. Source: KitchenAid - Refrigerator Ice Maker Troubleshooting
- Ice maker leaking. Break up ice blockages gently with a plastic or wooden handle and check that the fill cup sits directly under the fill valve spigot. Source: KitchenAid - Refrigerator Ice Maker Troubleshooting
Before You Call: The KitchenAid Reset
If the ice maker has a reset button, press and hold it for a few seconds; if not, unplug the refrigerator for 1 minute and plug it back in. Source: KitchenAid Product Help - How to Turn the Ice Maker On and Off
Signs Your KitchenAid Ice Maker Needs a Technician
- No ice at all, or only a few cubes a day

Keeping a KitchenAid Ice Maker and Freezer Running
- Run the undercounter ice maker's clean cycle (about 70 minutes) with one 16-ounce bottle of ice machine cleaner when the clean light turns red or about every 9 months, or every 6 months with hard water. Source: KitchenAid Product Help - Cleaning the Ice Maker
- Vacuum the undercounter ice maker's condenser fins behind the lower access panel with the unit unplugged, since a clogged condenser reduces ice output. Source: KitchenAid Product Help - Cleaning the Ice Maker

Freezer and Ice Maker Notes for Centerville, IA
Most ice maker calls in Centerville 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.
Iowa does not issue a general appliance repair technician license; the Plumbing and Mechanical Systems Board licenses plumbing, HVAC, refrigeration and hydronic work, and state law carves out a special restricted license only for utility employees who repair appliances.

In Iowa, you can check a license with the Iowa DIAL Find a Record or License (Plumbing & Mechanical Systems Board public search) or report a problem to the Iowa Attorney General Consumer Protection Division.
