How Samsung Ice Makers and Freezers Work
The fill valve needs at least 20 psi of supply pressure; low pressure shows up as small or shattered cubes, and on dual ice maker models a misplaced scoop holder can block the bucket sensor and halt production. Source: Samsung US - Samsung ice maker is not working
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 leaking. Check that the gasket between the ice chute and the ice bucket sits flush, since a gap melts ice and causes drips. Source: Samsung US - Water leaks in a Samsung refrigerator
- 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.
