What Makes Samsung Ice Maker Repairs Different
A fridge-compartment ice maker harvests a tray roughly every 45 to 65 minutes and a freezer ice maker about every 85 minutes, and the bucket holds only about 2 pounds before the bucket-full sensing stops production. Source: Samsung US - Samsung ice maker is not working
Common Samsung Ice Maker and Freezer Problems
- Ice dispenser not working. Check that the bucket has loose ice rather than clumps, Child Lock is off, the chute is clear and the bucket clicks into place. Source: Samsung US - Issues with Samsung refrigerator ice dispensers
- Ice maker frozen / ice buildup. Samsung says not to defrost the ice maker yourself, and a frozen-over ice maker or a bucket that will not pull out needs service. 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.
