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
An electric water valve feeds the ice maker and dispenser, and it buzzes if the ice maker is switched on without a water supply connected. Source: KitchenAid Product Help - Refrigerator Normal Sounds and Noises
KitchenAid Symptoms and First Checks
- 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 not making ice. Check that the water line is connected, the valve is fully open and the line is not kinked, confirm the freezer is at 0 to 5°F, then reset the ice maker. Source: KitchenAid Product Help - Ice Maker Not Working - Troubleshooting
The KitchenAid Ice Maker Test

KitchenAid Freezer Problems Worth a Service Call
