Frequently Asked Questions

How do I manually cycle the ice maker?

Locate the test button on the ice maker module (usually on the bottom or side). Press and hold the test button for 3-5 seconds until the ice maker begins to cycle. Observe the operation for any issues.

What should the water pressure be for the ice maker?

The water pressure should be between 20 and 120 PSI. Insufficient water pressure can cause ice maker malfunction.

How do I test the water inlet valve?

Disconnect the water supply and remove the valve. Use a multimeter to check for continuity across the solenoid terminals. If there is no continuity, the valve is likely defective. You can also apply 120V AC to the terminals to see if the valve opens. Use extreme caution when working with electricity.
