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
Before You Call: The KitchenAid Reset
