The customer called us to solve the issue with the ice maker in the LG refrigerator which is not working. Upon arriving on-site, our technician promptly conducted a thorough diagnostic, which ultimately revealed the root cause of the problem. In fact, LG refrigerators typically have ice makers built into the left door of the fridge. These ice makers, utilize the cold air from the freezer section to produce ice. In addition to the main freezer fan, there is another fan installed inside the freezer, specifically for the ice maker. Two channels for air circulation are set up between this fan and the ice maker inside the left wall of the refrigerator.

In this case, it was discovered that the freezer door was not sealing properly for some reason. Warm room air was infiltrating into the freezer. Consequently, during circulation, this warm air rapidly condensed near the ice maker’s fan. Without the circulation of cold air, the ice maker couldn’t freeze the water and ceased working.

How we fixed a not working ice maker in the LG refrigerator

Our technician defrosted the ice around the fan, ensuring that air circulation was restored, and the repair was complete. The customer didn’t have to spend a dime on replacing any parts and was satisfied with our service.

Sometimes, this problem is accompanied by issues with the water dispenser, where the water either flows very slowly or stops after a few seconds. The main issue here is a restriction in water flow. The Whirlpool refrigerator’s ice maker dispenses water based on time (usually around 6 seconds for this refrigerator model), and if there is a restriction in water pressure, it may not fill up the ice mold properly. There can be several potential sources of the problem:

1. Low water pressure in the line connected to the refrigerator.

2. An old or clogged water filter.

3. A malfunctioning filter housing.

4. A faulty main inlet water valve or ice maker water valve (if not part of an assembly).

If the issue lies with the valves or filter housing, replacing them is usually the solution. If it’s the water filter, you can simply replace it with a new one. However, if the problem is related to low water pressure in the line (normal range is 70 to 130 psi), you may need to call a plumber to address issues with the water line leading to the refrigerator or replace the valve (commonly located under the sink).

In some cases, you can try adjusting the adjustment screw on the ice maker, which controls the duration of water fill. By increasing the fill time, you can ensure that the ice maker receives an adequate amount of water.

If your Samsung refrigerator’s ice maker isn’t working, don’t worry, we know how to fix it. That is the most common issue with Samsung refrigerators, without exaggeration. In most cases, the problem isn’t with the ice maker itself but with the design. No other manufacturer has such an issue!

Samsung Refrigerator Ice Maker: A Long History of Design Flaws

If you look on YouTube, you’ll find tons of videos with this problem and various solutions. We first encountered this problematic design probably about 15 years ago, and for all those years, Samsung has been creating repair kits to address the issue with varying degrees of success.

At first, they tried to modify the air duct channel for the fan inside the ice room. Then they released special Y-clips. Next, they modified the ice makers. Now they offer an expensive repair kit (two versions for the large 9-cube and small 6-cube ice makers) that includes a new ice maker, Y-clips kit, a larger diameter drain tube with a heater, and a new refrigerator control board. Imagine how bad it is if they invest so much in a repair kit! We won’t delve too deeply into the theory of why this happens, but the main problem is the gap between the refrigerator’s wall and the attached ice room with the ice maker. Over time, a gap appears in the ice maker cover. Over time, this gap allows warm, moist air from the refrigerator section to enter the ice room, causing heavy frost to accumulate and ultimately leading to the Samsung refrigerator ice maker not working.

Samsung Ice Maker Not Working: How We Fix It

We typically resolve this problem when the Samsung refrigerator ice maker is not working by correctly sealing the gap using a special silicone provided by Samsung, part number DA81-05595A. Instead of installing an expensive repair kit that costs around $260, we simply eliminate the gap. As a result, the ice maker resumes ice production.

And most importantly, please do not attempt to defrost the ice maker with a heat gun or a hairdryer; you’ll likely heat the plastic to the point where it starts melting.
