Common Ice Machine Repairs
We’ve seen almost every type of appliance breakdown you can imagine. Throughout the years, however, we have managed to identify some of the most common ice machine repairs, how to solve them, and how to prevent them in the first place.
The unit will not turn on - A unit that will not turn on is usually a sign of a defective freezer switch or a switch that has accidentally been shut off. Our experts can either replace your switch or easily flip it back on.
Cubes are stuck within the mold - An efficient ice machine is supposed to eject the cubes after production. A failure in the mold can lead to blockages and misshapen ice. If you notice either of these symptoms, cleaning your bin can solve the problem. Pouring warm water over the mold can also help. It will allow the cubes to melt, creating a clean, empty mold.
There is a leak within the unit - Puddles will begin to form outside the unit’s base if your system has a leak. If you notice pools of water outside your ice machine, call Mr. Appliance. Our experts will repair your water lines or broken seals.
No cubes are being produced - Cubes failing to be produced can also be a symptom of a faulty mold. Ice stuck within a mold can block production, which must be solved immediately. Follow the same steps as recommended for ice stuck within a mold.
The cubes are half melted - Cubes that are half melted indicate your ice machine isn’t cold enough. In this case, your thermostat must be examined and potentially reset or replaced.
The water pressure is too low - Water pressure less than 20 psi will restrict future water supply. Our technicians can find a solution in no time, providing legendary ice machine repair you can trust.
