E1
Ice maker stops shortly after start, the compressor does not run, the fan may run briefly, and E1 is shown on the display.
Evaporator Temperature Sensor Failure
E2
The unit powers on, the fan may run, but the compressor does not start, and E2 appears on the display.
Compressor Overload or Start Circuit Fault
E3
The ice maker runs briefly, then stops with E3 displayed; the ice shovel or ice tray does not move correctly.
Ice Shovel / Agitator Motor Position Error
E4
The display shows E4 and the unit stops; the water level in the reservoir is normal, but the machine will not start an ice cycle.
Water Level Sensor / Float Switch Error
E5
E5 appears on the display; the unit may start but stops quickly. Ice size is inconsistent, or no ice is produced.
Ice Thickness / Harvest Sensor Fault
E6
E6 is displayed; the fan does not run or runs erratically. The unit overheats or shuts down quickly.
Condenser Fan Motor Fault
E7
An E7 error appears; the unit may beep continuously, and the ice basket full indicator behaves erratically.
Ice Bin Full Sensor / Infrared Sensor Fault
E8
E8 is displayed; the unit does not start the ice cycle. The water pump does not run or runs dry.
Water Pump Circuit Fault
E9
An E9 error occurs; the unit powers on, but no functions respond correctly. There may be random beeping or a frozen display.
Control PCB Communication or Memory Error
FULL
The display shows 'FULL' or an ice full icon; the unit stops making ice even when the ice basket is not full.
False Ice Bin Full Detection
H1
H1 or 'HI' is displayed; the unit stops making ice. The fan may run, but the compressor cycles off quickly.
High Temperature / Overheat Protection
LO
The display shows 'LO' or a low water icon, accompanied by beeping. The unit will not start an ice cycle even though the reservoir appears to have water.
Low Water Detection Fault
Symptom
Display lights up but buttons do not respond or respond intermittently.
Keypad / Touch Control Failure
Symptom
Display segments are missing or unreadable, but unit still seems to operate.
Partial Display Failure
Symptom
Evaporator plate ices up excessively and does not release ice during harvest; ice remains stuck to plate.
Harvest Cycle Failure
Symptom
Fan runs but compressor never starts; no cooling, no error code displayed.
Compressor Start Circuit Failure (Silent)
Symptom
Ice cubes have an unusual taste or odor, even when fresh.
Contaminated Water Path
Symptom
Ice cubes stick together in large clumps in the basket.
Ice Clumping Due to Melt and Refreeze
Symptom
Ice maker does not power on at all; no lights, no display, no sound.
No Power / Primary Power Supply Failure
Symptom
Ice maker frequently pauses with beeping but resumes after lid is opened and closed.
Lid / Door Switch or Sensor Issue
Symptom
Ice maker frequently trips the household circuit breaker or blows fuses.
Electrical Overload or Short Circuit
Symptom
Ice maker overfills the ice basket; ice continues to be produced even when basket is full.
Ice Level Detection Failure (No Shutoff)
Symptom
Ice maker produces ice very slowly; takes much longer than specified to fill the basket.
Reduced Cooling Efficiency
Symptom
Ice maker produces very small, hollow, or soft ice cubes even after long operation.
Insufficient Cooling Capacity or Short Freeze Cycle
Symptom
Ice maker runs but makes loud rattling or vibrating noises during operation.
Mechanical Vibration or Loose Component
Symptom
Ice maker runs but water does not flow over the evaporator; no water sound, no ice formation.
Water Circulation Failure
Symptom
Ice maker runs continuously without cycling properly; ice size does not change and machine does not enter harvest mode.
Control Logic or Sensor Input Stuck
Symptom
Ice maker starts a cycle then shuts off unexpectedly after a few minutes without any error code.
Intermittent Power or Thermal Protection Trip
Symptom
Loud grinding or clicking noise when the ice shovel or tray moves; sometimes ice jams and cycle stops.
Ice Shovel Gearbox or Mechanism Damage
Symptom
The ice maker runs but produces no ice at all. The compressor may run, the fan may run, but the evaporator plate does not get cold.
Refrigerant Loss or Sealed System Failure
Symptom
Unit emits a burning smell or visible smoke during operation.
Overheating Electrical Component
Symptom
Unit is excessively hot to the touch on the sides or top during operation.
Overheating Cabinet Due to Poor Heat Rejection
Symptom
Visible white or greenish scale buildup on evaporator plate and in water reservoir; ice production reduced.
Limescale and Mineral Deposit Accumulation
Symptom
Water drips continuously into the ice basket, causing ice to melt and refreeze into a solid block.
Water Distribution Tray Overflow or Misalignment
Symptom
Water leaks from the bottom of the Severin ice maker onto the countertop or floor.
Internal Water Leak
