Ice Maker Repair in Auburn & Placer County, CA

Ice Maker Problems We Fix

We service in-door and in-freezer refrigerator ice makers, undercounter and outdoor ice machines, and built-in nugget and gourmet ice makers from Whirlpool, GE, KitchenAid, LG, Samsung, Frigidaire, Scotsman, U-Line, and Sub-Zero.

The ice maker problems we see most often include an ice maker that makes no ice at all, small or hollow cubes, ice with a bad taste or odor, cubes that fuse into one solid block, a water inlet valve that has failed or frozen, a clogged or kinked fill tube, a bad ice maker module or optical sensor, a jammed ejector arm, and a leaking water line. Every visit starts with a full diagnostic, so you get an accurate quote instead of a guess — not a parts-cannon guess that costs you money.

Ice makers are the most commonly misdiagnosed part of a refrigerator. Homeowners are often told the whole refrigerator needs to be replaced when the real problem is an inexpensive water inlet valve, a frozen fill tube, or a water filter that is years overdue. We test water pressure, fill volume, and the ice maker module before recommending anything, and in most cases we can rebuild or replace the assembly instead of the appliance.

Frequently Asked Questions — Ice Maker Repair

Why is my refrigerator not making ice?

The most common causes are a frozen fill tube, a failed water inlet valve, a clogged water filter, low water pressure to the line, a bad ice maker module, or a freezer that is not cold enough to trigger the harvest cycle. Each of these is testable and most are inexpensive to fix.

My ice cubes are small or hollow. What causes that?

That is almost always a water supply problem: a partially clogged filter, a restricted or partly frozen fill tube, or a weak inlet valve. Replacing an overdue water filter resolves a surprising number of these calls.

Why does my ice taste bad?

Old water filters, a stale ice bin, or absorbed food odors are the usual culprits. If the taste persists after replacing the filter and emptying the bin, we can check for a contaminated water line or a failing door seal.

Do you repair undercounter and outdoor ice machines?

Yes. We service undercounter, outdoor, and built-in nugget ice makers, including Scotsman, U-Line, and Sub-Zero units, and owner Steven May is EPA 608 certified for sealed system work on them.

Is an ice maker worth repairing?

Almost always. An ice maker repair is a small fraction of the cost of a new refrigerator, and on built-in and premium units the assembly can usually be rebuilt or replaced on its own.
