A not working ice maker is a common problem for refrigerators with ice makers. After buying a refrigerator, the ice maker works without interruption, but suddenly you don't get ice. The ice maker examination reveals ice freezing on the elements of the ice maker or sticking together into a single mass of ice cubes. If the ice maker appears to not be making any or enough ice, low water pressure or a faulty water filter may be to blame. When the ice maker makes small, cloudy, or clumped ice, it could be something as simple as a dirty water filter, low water pressure, or high mineral deposits in your water. In the event of a frozen ice bucket, some troubleshooting may be needed, and service may be required. Although the ice maker is capable of making 10 pounds of ice a day, it's only capable of holding 2 pounds of ice at a time. Once the ice bucket is full, the ice maker will stop. Additionally, if ice is not dispensed regularly, it will pile up underneath the ice maker and prevent ice production. Shifting the ice forward will fix this problem. If a significant amount of ice is needed, periodically empty the extra ice into bags and keep them in the freezer, so the bucket can make additional batches of ice. Check the water pressure. Your water line should have enough pressure to fill 6 ounces (3/4 cup) in less than 10 seconds. Just dispense water into a measuring cup. If no water dispenses at all, verify that the water line is connected. Check if your water filter needs replacing. If your model has a dispenser, remove the water filter and try the water pressure test again. If the dispenser failed the water pressure test at first but now it passes, then you need to replace the filter. Use only Samsung brand filters. If your dispenser only passes the water pressure test when the filter is removed, but it's a new filter, then your water pressure is too low. If your model doesn't have a dispenser, then you need to judge for yourself if it's time for a filter replacement. Water filters are rated for 300 gallons of usage, which in an average household, represents about 6 months of usage. If it's been a while since the last time you replaced the filter, try removing it and checking if the ice production issue is resolved. If that fixes the ice production issue, then you need to replace the filter. Use only Samsung brand filters. Professional assistants will help to order and replace necessary parts.
