Ice Maker Not Working on Samsung Refrigerator - Check these 8 Things to Get it Working Again

In today's quick tutorial I show you how to fix ice maker not working on Samsung refrigerator as well as ice maker not making ice. Now depending on the brand or manufacture of refrigerator you have, some of the things I mention will be located in different locations. Be sure to reference your owners manual for these items.
Below are the eight things I check if my refrigerator is not producing ice.
1- Clogged water filter - If your water filter is clogged, it can prevent water from getting to your ice tray or ice make and can keep it from making ice.
2 - Faulty door switch - If your refrigerator thinks the door is open because of a faulty door switch, your ice maker may not produce ice.
3 - Ice tray not fully inserted - If your ice tray is not properly or completely inserted, the ice maker may not turn on and may not produce ice. Sometimes ice falls behind my tray and prevents it from fully inserting.
4 - Kink or damaged water line - Check the back of your refrigerator and check the water line. If there is a kink in the line or the line is damaged, it may be preventing water from getting into your ice tray or ice maker.
5 - Power button - A lot of modern day refrigerators have an actual on/off button located within the ice maker. Make sure your ice maker is turned on.
6 - Freezer temp - The ideal temperature for your freezer is 0 degrees F. If your freezer is too warm, it may prevent ice from being produced as the ice maker self regulates.
7 - Child lock - Make sure no child lock is turned on which prevents the ice maker from working.
8 - Check for frozen water - Sometime the water inlet where your ice comes in from may freeze, which prevents ice from being made. Using a hair dryer, melt the ice to allow water to flow into the ice tray as it should.
Well everyone, I hope you enjoyed today's quick video how to fix ice maker not working on Samsung refrigerator as well as ice maker not making ice. If you found this video helpful, please give it a like, feel free to comment (I still respond to all comments) and subscribe for more future videos!

Its funny because all guides says that move the fridge and check the water line, but NONE of them says "Hey, try to serve water in a glas, if water is coming from there, your water line is ok, you don't need to move the whole freaking fridge"

@JMGENTERPRISES Жыл бұрын

Well you could still have a leak in your water line. Best to check it once and while.

@ryansickles1983 Жыл бұрын

Also there are usually 2 intake valves, so just because you have water to your dispenser does not mean that your valve to the icemaker is working

@lesliemontagne6797 Жыл бұрын

Thank you for this! My problem was that a part of the water line was frozen. I increased the freezer temp from -2 degrees Fahrenheit to 0 degrees Fahrenheit. Then I used your blow-dryer de-icing method. Worked like a charm!

My father in law moved the fridge couple inches to pant behind the fridge and then my Fridge started throwing and “EP” error code. Everything still works fine , fridge water dispenser except for the ice. There’s a knocking noise then nothing. No ice in the tray either. Since I have warranty the technician didn’t even bother servicing it just wanted to swap out the whole fridge but i don’t want to do that. I tried unplugging it for a minute to reset and it shows the temperature on the inside of the fridge for a bit then goes back to the error code. I don’t know what it could be

I also turned the freezer temp down just to be sure. Thanks so much for the great video!

Hair dryer is a dumb idea, you guys are spreading false information and destroying appliances because the heat warps the plastic, therefore destroying the cavity and making unit unrepairable. I work in appliances and have had to educate customers to use steamer, not a hair dryer or a heat gun of any kind since the steamer doesn't heat the plastic enough to melt it unlike heat guns... Videos like these are why appliance companies void warranty.

Mine worked a month, under warranty they fixed it, I got 2 months on the 2nd one. Finally found a serviceman who knew what he was talking about and he could fix them and give a one year warranty on the service but he told me dollars to donuts 1.5 year and the seal will fail again. They are junk, all. Get a model with the ice maker in the freezer.

Hi. Appreciate the videos VERY much. We have a Samsung that looks very much like the model you're referring to.

It lasts about 10 minutes and then stops until the next time. Any ideas? Thanks very much!

@JMGENTERPRISES Жыл бұрын

So you have changed the filter? Sometimes when my ice gets low I get that whooshing sound you are referring to. However mine usually only last about two minutes. Have you tried unplugging your fridge for a couple minutes then plugging back in? I find a hard reset like that occasionally sometimes helps.

You have the ice maker that looks like mine! My Samsung fridge ice maker does not stop making ice. It makes ice great but doesn't seem to have an off switch. Where is the switch that triggers the ice to quite making ice when the bucket is full? Any help would be appreciated.

@JMGENTERPRISES 2 жыл бұрын

Hmmmm. Sounds like there must be a sensor of some kind. I haven't experienced that problem. Maybe another KZfaq video would have the solution? I also heard Samsung has great customer service on their refrigerators. Maybe try giving them a call?

Mine does the same thing...makes so much ice it jams up. did you ever figure out why yet?

@davidfuerstenau5965 2 жыл бұрын

Same here and the ice cubes freeze up top and cause an ice dam. Which blocks any other ice from coming down. No more Samsung refrigerator/freezers for us! Far tooo aggravating!!!

@2karencraig 2 жыл бұрын

Muy same thoughts. I noticed when it mad ice cubes won't stop making cubes. I started pressing the stop making ice in the front panel of the fridge as soon as I had enough ice. Hope to find out something

Thanks for this. But first question should have been "is the water dispenser working?" If it is then the "kinked water line" and "filter" are not applicable.

I have the same ice maker unit. Water is dispensing just fine. The ice maker is not filling. Is there a way to check if the freezer fill line is blocked with sediment? Since water dispenses with great pressure, I can rule out the filter. And since water dispenses at all, I can rule out the door switch. Right?

@JMGENTERPRISES 2 жыл бұрын

Yeah, I would say you can rule out the door switch and filter. Have you tried using a hair dryer to ensure no ice is blocking the dispenser?

@stephaniebean634 2 жыл бұрын

The reset worked and dumped water into the unit, so no ice blocking :) The compartment for the ice maker is too warm. The bottom freezer is also not as cold as it should be. 10-12 degrees instead of -8 it's set for.

Did you ever figure that out because I’m having the same problem.

@stephaniebean634 Жыл бұрын

Sorry to say it had nothing to do with the ice maker. We had a slow leak in our compressor. The temperature slowly continued to rise. Now we have a new refrigerator (Whirlpool side by side) for about the same cost as a repair. After removing the lower back panel, I could see areas of corrosion on a couple lines. A repairman diagnosed.

I own a Kenmore Elite; ice maker works fine however it is not dumping the ice into the container. It only dumps the ice once I reset the ice maker. Opted to replace the ice maker with a new one, but the same problem persists. Any suggestions? Thank you

Huh, that is interesting. I am unfamiliar with that machine. Have you checked the troubleshooting section in your owners manual?

@darrell5703 29 күн бұрын

My ice doesn’t empty in the bin. I have to do it manually. Not sure why. The arm to detect if the bin is filled seems fine and I can toggle it up and down. There’s no power button inside the freezer though. If there is, I just can’t find it. Maybe that’s the problem. Idk. But once I manually dump the ice. Water pours into the tray and I come back a couple hours later to check. They’re frozen and not dumped. So I press the button.
