13-2 ICE MAKER FUNCTIONS
13-2-1 Icemaking Mode
1. Icemaking Mode begins right after the ice tray fills with water.
2. Icemaker waits until water becomes ice in the ice tray.
Ice-detecting sensor checks if the ice bin is full every 2min.
13-2-2 Harvest Mode
At least in 110min, since icemaker begun icemaking mode, Icemaker starts to twist the ice tray to drop ices into the Ice bin.
(After installation, at least 1day is needed to make ices)
If the icemaker never drop ices to the ice bin though water becomes ices in the ice tray, check the real temperature of
compartment. (not temperature on display)
Icemaker needs below 0°F to drop ices to ice bin.
13-3 Trouble Shooting Ice & Water system Issues
13-3-1 Icemaker not making ice or not making enough ice (Environmental Diagnosis)
Icemaker can’t make ices itself. Basically, water, temperature and time are needed.
- Water : If no Water, then no Ice.
- Temperature : The compartment, where the icemaker is located, has to be at least 1°F so that icemaker dumps ices to
the bin.
- Time : At least 80 minutes must be passed to make one series of ices after water comes into icemaker.
Test Mode should not be carried out before checking below.
13-2-3 Fill/Park Position
Once the normal harvest mode has been completed, the water solenoid will be activated.
Not making ice
Water
Yes
Yes
No
No
No
Temperature
Time
Is the icemaker's tray
filled with water or Ice?
Is the temperature
below 10 degrees F
in the icemaker
compartment.
Advise the customer on
how long it takes to
make ice.
1. Check to see if the house water supply is 40 and 120 psi.
2. Is the icemaker fill tube frozen?
Check the fill tube heater s electrical
resistance.
3. Check all water line connections. Including the ones to the water valve.
4. Check for Kinked water lines.
5. Check the filter in the refrigerator to make sure it isn’t plugged.
If it is plugged change the filter.
1. Does cold air come out from air vent normally?
Check if Icing fan is working.
Check if multi duct is blocked.
2. Check the temperature in the Fresh Food and Freezer sections.
3. Does icemaker compartment door close tightly?
1. Depending on the temperature settings, door openings and ambient temperatures
it will tak betwee 90 and 120 minutes to make 1 batch of ice (12 cubes).
2. I take approximately 24 hours to fill the ice container.
If the issue haven’t resolved yet, though you have checked all the items above, go to next step.
