Guide · RefrigeratorConfirm the freezer or ice room is cold enough, the ice maker is on and the bucket isn't fooling the full sensor, then run the ice maker test. If the test runs but no water arrives, look at water pressure, the filter, a frozen fill tube or the inlet valve.
Guide · RefrigeratorCheck settings, vent placement, room temperature and the ice-maker-without-water condition first. If those are fine, suspect a damper stuck open or a sensor reading warm.
Guide · RefrigeratorOverflow usually means water entering when it should not: an inlet valve that seeps closed because of low pressure or debris, a fill tube that froze and diverts water, or a cracked fill tube. A tray that is not level or a misreading ice maker can also overfill.
