Water quality can cause ice makers to fail
or produce unacceptable cubes. If mineral
content or sand is a problem, the screen in
the fill valve can restrict. A particle of sand
can keep the valve from seating properly.
Results will be small crescents (or no ice)
or flooding of the ice container if the water
valve does not close.
Mineral content can also lime up the mold
causing wicking of water over the mold and
poor cube release. Silicone is applied at the
upper edges, around the fill cup and
stripper.

frozen when these temperatures are
achieved, but cycling time will be slowed if
the freezer temperature is not cold enough
to achieve these mold temperatures easily.

If the thermostat is diagnosed as defective,
it can be removed and replaced easily. Re-
move the module from the mold by taking
out two Phillips screws.
Using needle nose pliers, grasp one of the
thermostat clips and pull out. Press in new
thermostat, making sure that pins are prop-
erly indexed. Using this procedure, it is not
necessary to remove the electrical assem-
bly. If you are replacing the module, trans-
fer the clips to the new mold support. (Use
new thermal bonding material.)
Pull the module free of the mold and you
will see the thermostat on the mold side.
