What to do if “Ice Full” and “Add Water” lights are on together in my Frigidaire EFIC117-SS?
- R
  Richard OlsonAug 20, 2025
  If the “ADD WATER” and “Ice Full” indicators light up simultaneously on your Frigidaire Ice Maker, it could be due to an electrical power surge, air in the lines, blocked lines, or the water tank's inability to detect the water level. To resolve this, turn off the ice maker, unplug it, add water if needed, plug it back in, and restart the unit. If that doesn't work, inspect the parts, remove the drain cap on the back, drain a small amount of water, replace the cap, and try again. Also, check for ice blocking the ice pusher; if so, turn off the unit, let the ice melt, and then restart it.

  If your Frigidaire Ice Maker isn't operating, ensure it's plugged into a standard 110/120 Volt, 60 Hertz power source. Also, the unit may not operate if the ambient or water temperature is too high. Try running the ice maker in temperatures below 90°F and using colder water in the reservoir.

  If the “Ice Full” indicator light is on, it means the ice basket is full. Remove ice from the ice storage basket of your Frigidaire Ice Maker to make more.
