Possible Causes

Jammed ice mold, failed ice maker side of inlet valve, stuck ice level sensor, frozen fill tube

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off the ice maker and unplug the refrigerator before handling the ice maker assembly.

Steps:

  • 1. Check ice bucket: Ensure the bucket is properly seated and not overfilled or jammed.
  • 2. Inspect mold: Remove the ice maker cover and look for jammed cubes or scale buildup. Clear obstructions with warm water.
  • 3. Test fill: In service mode (if available), run an ice maker fill test. If no water enters the mold but the dispenser works, the ice maker side of the inlet valve may be faulty and require replacement.
  • 4. Check ice level sensor: Ensure the sensor arm or optical sensor is not stuck in the 'full' position.
