Common Ice Maker Problems Mr. Appliance Can Service
Every ice maker problem has several potential causes, so the most efficient way to diagnose and fix the appliance is to reach out to your local Mr. Appliance.
Here are the most common issues we address with our ice maker repair services:
- Ice maker isn’t making ice: If your ice maker is stuck and won’t make ice, it could be caused by water line problems, a failed control board, a malfunctioning door switch, a faulty thermostat, or a bad ice mold heater.
- Ice maker water pressure is low: Water pressure lower than 20 psi restricts the water supply to your ice maker. Mr. Appliance can determine if this is an appliance problem or a plumbing system problem.
- Ice maker won’t stop making ice: If this is happening, you likely have a faulty ice level arm or control board. Our team can let you know if a repair or full replacement is the most cost-effective choice.
- Ice cubes are small or oddly shaped: This may be caused by low water pressure, a clogged water line, or supply line issues — all of which contribute to oddly-formed ice cubes.
- Ice maker is leaking water: A leaky inlet valve may be at fault, but there may be other underlying problems as well.

FAQs About Ice Maker Repair
Is It Worth Fixing an Ice Maker?
Deciding to fix an ice maker depends on the age of the appliance, the repair cost, and the ice maker problem. For a newer ice maker with a minor issue, a repair is likely worth it. If your ice maker or fridge is old and the repair is expensive, replacing the ice maker or even the whole fridge might be the best option. Consult with an appliance repair professional before making a final decision.
How Do You Repair an Ice Maker Water Line?
Locate the water supply line and inspect it for visible damage, like cracks. While some might try to tape over holes or cracks, this isn’t recommended; contact Mr. Appliance to replace the line for the best fix.
How Do You Reset an Ice Maker?
To reset an ice maker, press firmly on the metal feeler arm (if one is present) and turn the unit on and off. If this doesn’t resolve anything, look for a reset button on your ice maker and hold it down for at least 10 seconds. Finally, try unplugging the appliance and plugging it back in.
What Is the Life Expectancy of an Ice Maker?
The life expectancy of an ice maker can vary from five to 15 years, depending on the brand, usage, and maintenance. Regularly cleaning an ice machine can help prevent mineral buildup and extend its lifespan. Schedule service with an appliance repair expert to diagnose the issue.
Why Would My Ice Maker Suddenly Stop Making Ice?
There are several reasons why your ice maker might stop making ice. Common culprits include a clogged water filter, a full ice bin that triggers an automatic shut-off, or a malfunctioning ice maker part.
