Why is my Westinghouse Refrigerator ice maker not making enough ice?
- B
  Bryan GrahamAug 18, 2025
  If the ice maker in your Westinghouse refrigerator isn't making enough ice, it could be because the ice maker is designed to produce approximately 2–3 kilograms of ice every 24 hours. Other possible reasons include the freezer not being cold enough, the household water line valve not being fully open, or the water dispenser dispensing water slower than normal, which may require replacing the water filter cartridge.

  If your Westinghouse refrigerator's ice maker isn't producing ice, ensure the ice maker is switched to the 'ON' position. Also, check that the household water line valve is open. If the freezer isn't cold enough, consult the troubleshooting section regarding temperature issues. Lastly, if the water dispenser isn't dispensing water, the ice and water filter cartridge might be clogged and require replacement.

Why won't the ice dispenser on my Westinghouse Refrigerator dispense ice?

  If your Westinghouse refrigerator's dispenser won't dispense ice, it could be due to several reasons. The ice storage container might be empty; the dispenser should work once the first supply of ice drops in. The freezer temperature might be set too warm; adjust it to a colder setting to make ice. Ensure the household water line valve is open and allow enough time for ice to be made. Also, check that the freezer door is completely closed. Lastly, if the ice dispensing arm has been held in for more than 4-5 minutes, the motor might be overloaded; the overload protector will reset in about 3 minutes, after which ice can be dispensed.

  If your Westinghouse refrigerator has a temperature that is too warm, ensure there is enough clearance at the sides, back, and top, referring to the installation instructions. You may have kept the door open too long or too frequently, or food containers/packaging may be obstructing the door.

  Willie JohnsonAug 30, 2025
  If you find water dripping on the floor from your Westinghouse refrigerator, the defrost water tray (located at the back or underneath) may not be correctly positioned, or the drain tube may not be properly directing water into the tray. You might need to move the refrigerator to check the tray and tube.

What to do if the ice dispenser is jammed in my Westinghouse FJ302 Refrigerator?
- J
  James CarrilloSep 1, 2025
  If your Westinghouse refrigerator's ice dispenser is jammed, it might be due to several reasons. Ice may have melted and refrozen around the auger because of infrequent use, temperature changes, or power outages; in this case, remove the ice container, empty it, clean and dry it, and then put it back. Alternatively, ice cubes might be stuck between the ice maker and the back of the ice container; remove them. If the ice cubes are frozen together, use the dispenser more often to prevent this. Also, if the ice cubes are hollow or smaller than normal, the water filter cartridge may be clogged and needs replacing.

Why does the ice from my Westinghouse Refrigerator have a bad odour and taste?
- G
  Gary SkinnerSep 3, 2025
  If the ice from your Westinghouse refrigerator has a bad odour and taste, it might have absorbed odours or flavors from strongly flavored foods stored in the refrigerator or freezer. Make sure to cover foods tightly and discard any stale ice to allow the ice maker to produce a fresh supply. Another reason could be poor taste or color of the water running into the ice maker; consider adding a filter to the water supply line or consulting a water purifying company. Also, infrequent use of the ice maker can cause this issue, so discard stale ice regularly.

Why are the ice cubes from my Westinghouse FJ302 Refrigerator hollow or smaller than normal?
- S
  Shannon GrahamSep 6, 2025
  If the ice cubes from your Westinghouse refrigerator are hollow or smaller than normal, it's likely due to restricted water flow to the ice maker. Try replacing the filter cartridge, as it may be clogged.

How to troubleshoot a Westinghouse FJ302 that is not operating?

  If your Westinghouse refrigerator is not operating, check that the power cord is properly plugged into the outlet and switched 'ON'. Try another appliance in the same outlet to rule out a blown fuse or tripped circuit. Also, adjust the temperature control to a slightly 'colder' setting. Note that the freezer fan may not operate during the automatic defrost cycle or shortly after the appliance is turned on.
