W

ater or ice is

on the ice tray

The ice-maker gear box may be defective, cooling may be poor or ice cubes may be full in the server.

3.Check if the temperature of the freezer com-

partment is cool enough.

(It takes longer to make ice during summer

time or if the door is frequently opened.)

2.Measure the resistance of ice tray thermistor

circuit.

1.Check inside of the ice server.

The water saucer may be defective, or the ice tray may get cracked.

4. Check the water pipe between the refrigerator

compartment and freezer compartment for dirt,
and foreign objects.

5.Check the condition of ice tray.

6.Disassemble the water pump and check the

inside of the pipe.

7.Tank pipe is clogged , has a hole or is not

properly installed.

8.Check the motor coil resistance.

9.Check if there are any dirt or foreign object

which are difficult to remove in the water tank.

Also, check if there is any crack or deformation

on the tank.
