My Electrolux Ice Maker is Not Working

If your Electrolux ice maker is not working, the most likely culprits are a faulty main control board, improper freezer temperature, or a bad water inlet valve, followed by a worn ice maker assembly, a defective dispenser solenoid, or a frozen or damaged fill hose. Start by checking whether the control board is sending voltage to the ice maker, then confirm the freezer is cold enough — aim for 0 to 5°F (about -18 to -15°C) and note that production falls off above 10°F. Next verify water pressure and test the water inlet valve for power and continuity; the valve needs about 20 psi to fill the tray. If those checks pass, inspect the ice maker assembly and dispenser solenoid for continuity and free movement, and thaw or replace the fill tube if it’s iced over. These steps cover the common causes of ice maker not making ice and will point you to the right ice maker repair part. Enter your model number on RepairClinic.com to find the exact replacement part for your refrigerator.

01 - Electrolux Refrigerator Main Control Board

The refrigerator's main control board controls the voltage being sent to the ice maker. If the control board is defective, the ice maker may not work at all. You can inspect the board for signs of damage or a shorted component. You can also use a multimeter to determine if voltage is reaching the ice maker after reviewing the refrigerator's wiring diagram.

02 - Freezer Temperature is Above 10 Degrees F (-12C)

If the freezer temperature is above 10 degrees Fahrenheit (-12 Celsius), the ice maker will not produce ice cubes efficiently. The freezer temperature should be set between 0 and 5 degrees Fahrenheit (-18 to -15 Celsius) for the ice maker to work properly.

03 - Electrolux Refrigerator Water Inlet Valve

The water inlet valve is an electrically-controlled valve that opens to supply water to the dispenser and ice maker. If the water inlet valve is defective, or if it has insufficient pressure, it won’t allow water to flow through. As a result, the ice maker won’t make ice. The valve requires at least 20 psi to function properly. Make sure that the water pressure to the valve is at least 20 psi. If the water pressure is sufficient, use a multimeter to check for power to the water inlet valve. If the water inlet valve has sufficient pressure and is getting power, but the ice maker won’t fill with water to make ice, replace th...e water inlet valve.

04 - Electrolux Refrigerator Ice Maker Assembly

One component of the ice maker assembly might be defective. Since many of the ice maker components are not sold separately, you may need to purchase and replace the entire ice maker assembly. Before replacing the ice maker assembly, check the water inlet valve, water line, and fan. If none of these parts are at fault, and the freezer temperature is at least 15 degrees Fahrenheit, replace the ice maker assembly.

05 - Electrolux Refrigerator Dispenser Solenoid

The dispenser solenoid opens a door flap to release the ice and then closes the door flap once the dispenser finishes dispensing ice. If the dispenser solenoid is defective, the dispenser door won't open. To determine if the dispenser door solenoid is defective, use a multimeter to test it for continuity. In addition, check the dispenser actuator pin to ensure that it moves freely. If the dispenser door solenoid does not have continuity, or if the actuator pin does not move freely, replace the dispenser solenoid.

06 - Electrolux Refrigerator Fill Hose

If there is low water pressure coming into the refrigerator, or the water inlet valve is defective, the ice maker's fill tube can become clogged with ice and prevent water from entering the ice maker tray. You can use a hair dryer to thaw out the frozen fill tube, but you should confirm the home has sufficient water pressure and the water inlet valve is functioning properly. If the fill tube appears damaged, you should replace it with a new fill tube.
