      Hollow ice cubes can be caused by several factors: low water in the mold due to a thermostat short cycle (replace the ice maker thermostat), the unit or ice maker not being level (level the ice maker or unit), obstructions in the fill tube (remove obstructions), or low water pressure (replace the filter).
