Ice Maker Not Working on Samsung Refrigerator - Check these 8 Things to Get it Working Again

[@dannyfloyd896]

This was a nice, educational, and to the point video. Thanks for NOT gunking it up with back ground music.

[@JMGENTERPRISES]

You bet Danny! Yeah, I cannot stand back ground music like so many other tutorials. Lol

[@elizabethletourneau1511]

Lol! Thanks for saving me a ton of work. I was prepared to take everything apart to figure out why no ice was being made. You saved me a bunch of time in just turning my ice maker back on.

[@JMGENTERPRISES]

Happy to hear it Elizabeth! Have a great weekend!

[@simpsoneverton2018]

​@@JMGENTERPRISES My parents have the same fridge and the place they bought it from charged them 200 to fix the ice maker then broke shortly after... then they charged them another 500 to fix it again then broke again shortly after. Is there any way to get back that money or sue them as I think it's outrageous to charge 700 dollars to not fix the ice make?

[@reginasingleton2566]

Thanks so much. I was 20 seconds into your video and realized my ice was turned off. It must have happened when I was cleaning the panel. I don’t know if I even realize that button was there. You are the bomb. Thank you so much.

[@JMGENTERPRISES]

Yay! Glad it was an easy fix for you!

[@krisbaker3349]

You rock! I had resigned myself to not having ice this summer - just heard the first cubes dropping! I had no idea there was a separate ice maker power button - the indicator inside the fridge said the ice maker was on but when I held the little blue button on the ice maker itself for 3 seconds I felt a humming begin. I also turned the freezer temp down just to be sure. Thanks so much for the great video!

[@JMGENTERPRISES]

Awesome! Yeah I didn't know ice makers had their own separate power button either. Glad it's back up and running for you!

[@JustAnAcre]

Thanks for the 3-second info. I heard a sound after the 3 seconds and then felt a motion. It didn't last long, but hoping it was it.

[@tarunthomas396]

Your video was spot on. I just went step by step and it solved the problem. My refrigerator model is very similar to the one in the video. It had ice all over the mechanism and I used a hair dryer (great idea) to de-ice it. Then the on button needed to be pressed for 3 secs and now I can hear the sweet sound of falling ice. Thanks very much

[@JMGENTERPRISES]

Excellent! Happy to hear it helped!

[@carloz1536]

Hair dryer is a dumb idea, you guys are spreading false information and destroying appliances because the heat warps the plastic, therefore destroying the cavity and making unit unrepairable. I work in appliances and have had to educate customers to use steamer, not a hair dryer or a heat gun of any kind since the steamer doesn't heat the plastic enough to melt it unlike heat guns... Videos like these are why appliance companies void warranty.

[@howardlaunius7484]

Thanks for an informative vid. My Samsung had stopped making ice so I found your video on the 8 tips... I never knew about the little switch on the side of the ice maker. Found my switch and felt it "click" and heard a shame from the fridge. Put the ice tray back in and went to bed. This morning... A Tray Full of Ice!! Thanks again!

Its funny because all guides says that move the fridge and check the water line, but NONE of them says "Hey, try to serve water in a glas, if water is coming from there, your water line is ok, you don't need to move the whole freaking fridge"

[@JMGENTERPRISES]

Well you could still have a leak in your water line. Best to check it once and while.

[@ryansickles1983]

Also there are usually 2 intake valves, so just because you have water to your dispenser does not mean that your valve to the icemaker is working

[@lesliemontagne6797]

Thank you for this! My problem was that a part of the water line was frozen. I increased the freezer temp from -2 degrees Fahrenheit to 0 degrees Fahrenheit. Then I used your blow-dryer de-icing method. Worked like a charm!

[@hakim8688]

My father in law moved the fridge couple inches to pant behind the fridge and then my Fridge started throwing and “EP” error code. Everything still works fine , fridge water dispenser except for the ice. There’s a knocking noise then nothing. No ice in the tray either. Since I have warranty the technician didn’t even bother servicing it just wanted to swap out the whole fridge but i don’t want to do that. I tried unplugging it for a minute to reset and it shows the temperature on the inside of the fridge for a bit then goes back to the error code. I don’t know what it could be

[@richardcobb2852]

Thanks for the info. Turns out my problem was dirty filter and ice buildup behind the ice bucket. While clearing the ice out, I noticed a switch behind the bucket housing that has to engage fully to work, I guess that’s to keep it from pouring water into it when it isn’t freezing properly. 👍👍

Great video for explanations. My problem with this and models like it. The ice maker is in the fridge, these style of units, ice makers leak warm air inside and it freezes up. Mine worked a month, under warranty they fixed it, I got 2 months on the 2nd one. Finally found a serviceman who knew what he was talking about and he could fix them and give a one year warranty on the service but he told me dollars to donuts 1.5 year and the seal will fail again. They are junk, all. Get a model with the ice maker in the freezer.

Hi. Appreciate the videos VERY much. We have a Samsung that looks very much like the model you're referring to. The ice maker works fine; however, every six hours or so, it makes this weird, repetitive "whooshing" sound like it's having trouble breathing. It lasts about 10 minutes and then stops until the next time. Any ideas? Thanks very much!

[@JMGENTERPRISES]

So you have changed the filter? Sometimes when my ice gets low I get that whooshing sound you are referring to. However mine usually only last about two minutes. Have you tried unplugging your fridge for a couple minutes then plugging back in? I find a hard reset like that occasionally sometimes helps. Not just fridges but my computer, roomba robots, cell phone and other things 😄

Happy I could help!

We have a Samsung french door fridge. It has both upper and lower ice maker. Will the bottom freezer still work if you remove the ice maker?

[@JMGENTERPRISES]

That is a good question. I honestly do not know. Do you have an owners manual?

My samsung is just like yours. I can not remove the ice tray like you did in the video. It seems to be hung up on something. Help Please

It's probably frozen shut. Try using a hairdryer around the opening. Just don't hold it too close.
