Samsung Ice and Freezer Designs
Samsung ice makers come in several designs, including in-freezer ice maker, Dual Auto Ice Maker (cubed + Ice Bites), and fridge-compartment (in-door) ice maker, and each one fails in its own way. On the freezer side, Samsung sells top-freezer refrigerator, convertible upright freezer, 4-Door Flex refrigerator, and bottom-freezer refrigerator.

What a Samsung Technician Deals With
The ice maker has its own automatic defrost; Samsung tells owners not to defrost it themselves, and a sheet of ice over the ice maker or a stuck, frozen bucket calls for service. Source: Samsung US - Samsung ice maker is not working
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
What Samsung Says to Check First
- 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
- Freezer not freezing. Set the freezer to 0°F or colder and allow up to 28 hours after a setting change before judging the temperature. Source: Samsung US - Cooling issues with Samsung refrigerator or freezer
Reading a Samsung Error Code
| Code | What it means |
|---|---|
| 8E | Ice maker (freezer) sensor error. Source: Samsung US - Samsung refrigerator error codes |
| 21E | Freezer fan error: the board does not sense the freezer fan turning, usually from a frozen fan or a failed fan motor. Source: Samsung US - Samsung refrigerator error codes |
| 40E / 40C | Ice room fan error. Source: Samsung US - Samsung refrigerator error codes |
Signs Your Samsung Ice Maker Needs a Technician
