A KitchenAid ice maker shares its basic needs with every other ice maker, cold air, water and a working mechanism, but where it sits, how it is reset and the codes it shows are specific to the brand and model. We flag companies whose listing or website mentions KitchenAid and fill in with nearby appliance repair companies so you always have options.

What a KitchenAid Technician Deals With

Common KitchenAid Ice Maker and Freezer Problems
- 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
- Frost buildup in freezer. KitchenAid ties frost to air getting in, so it says to check that the door seals close fully and that the refrigerator is level. Source: KitchenAid - Troubleshoot Your Refrigerator's Possible Problems
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

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
