Know Your Samsung Ice Maker
What Makes Samsung Ice Maker Repairs Different
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
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
- Frost buildup in freezer or ice bucket. Look for doors that do not close fully, overstuffed shelves, hot food and blocked vents, and on door ice makers check that the bucket gasket sits flush. Source: Samsung US - Frost forms in the Samsung freezer, refrigerator, or ice bucket
The Samsung Ice Maker Test
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.
