Samsung Ice and Freezer Features
What Makes Samsung Ice Maker Repairs Different
The gasket between the ice compartment and the ice bucket must sit flush, because a gap lets warm air in and causes frost, slushy ice and dripping. Source: Samsung US - Frost forms in the Samsung freezer, refrigerator, or ice bucket
What Samsung Says to Check First
- Ice maker not making ice. Confirm the freezer is at 0°F or colder, the Ice Off light is not on, the bucket is fully seated and holds only ice, then run the ice maker reset test. Source: Samsung US - Samsung ice maker is not working
- Small or hollow cubes. Small or shattered cubes point to low water pressure, so check that the supply valve is fully open, the line is not kinked and the filter is not restricting flow. Source: Samsung US - Samsung ice maker is not working
Testing or Resetting a Samsung Ice Maker
With the ice bucket removed on most models, press and hold the Test button on the ice maker until it chimes (up to about 10 seconds); one chime means it passed, several chimes mean it needs service, and no chime or movement calls for cutting power for 2 minutes and trying again.

Florida's construction licensing guidance says that paid work such as installing a dishwasher connected to drinking water or replacing a water heater requires a licensed contractor, and that a local business tax receipt or certificate of competency may also apply; it does not describe a separate state appliance repair license.

In Florida, you can check a license with the DBPR Verify a License (MyFloridaLicense.com) or report a problem to the Florida Attorney General, Office of Citizen Services / Consumer Protection.
