KitchenAid Ice and Freezer Features
What Makes KitchenAid Ice Maker Repairs Different

Common KitchenAid Ice Maker and Freezer Problems

- 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
