KitchenAid Ice and Freezer Features
What Makes KitchenAid Ice Maker Repairs Different
The undercounter ice makers need 30 to 120 psi of water pressure, and a dirty air-cooled condenser can cut output to little or no ice and overheat parts. Source: KitchenAid Product Help - Thin, Cloudy or Clumpy Ice - Freestanding Ice Maker
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 dispenser not working. If ice is lodged in the dispenser, set a towel and dish under the chute and let the ice thaw on its own. Source: KitchenAid - Refrigerator Ice Maker Troubleshooting
Testing or Resetting a KitchenAid Ice Maker
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

Care KitchenAid Recommends
- 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
- Replace the refrigerator water filter about every six months or when the indicator comes on, since a clogged or loose filter cuts flow to the ice maker. Source: KitchenAid Product Help - Ice Maker Not Working - Troubleshooting

Around Winthrop
Most ice maker calls in Winthrop 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.
Massachusetts does not issue a separate appliance repair license; running fuel gas piping to appliances and installing their vent piping is gas fitting work that requires a license from the Board of State Examiners of Plumbers and Gas Fitters.

In Massachusetts, you can check a license with the Massachusetts Division of Occupational Licensure eLIPSE license verification portal or report a problem to the Massachusetts Attorney General's Office, Consumer Advocacy and Response Division.
