How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Ensure hands are dry when operating controls.

  • 1. Check bin position: Remove and firmly reinstall the ice bin to ensure it properly engages any bin-present switch.
  • 2. Verify bin not full: Confirm the bin is empty or at a low level. Clean the bin full sensor and ensure it is not obstructed.
  • 3. Cancel delay/standby: Review the control panel for any delay start or standby indicators and cancel them as per the user manual.
  • 4. Door/panel switches: If your model has a door or service panel switch, ensure the panel is fully closed and the switch is properly depressed. Test the switch for continuity and replace it if faulty.
