Here are quick and easy ice maker repair troubleshooting tips that you should always remember before seeking the help of a company specializing in appliance repair in Lee County:

1. Check the bail wire. It is seen on the upper side of the ice tray. Make sure it is in a downward position. Bail wire in upper position shuts off the ice maker. Bail wire automatically shuts off when the ice bin is filled with ice the ice raises the bail wire, shutting off the ice maker.

2. Check the water supply. It is seen behind or beneath the ice maker. Check if the arm is swinging into motion and there is a buzzing sound if it does then the water supply is not supplying enough water. Make sure that the water supply is not stuck and is supplying water smoothly.

3. Check the tube line that fills the ice tray. Make sure it is not frozen. Frozen tube lines stop the flow of water. If tube line is frozen, defrost the using dryer. You can use hair dryer since it is safe to use and does not burn the tube.

4. Check the ice ejector arm. The ejector's arm ejects the ice cubes from the mold and into the ice collection bin. Make sure that the ejector arm motor is working well. If not, you can buy a new motor or contact an ice maker repair professional.

5. Check the tap valve. Tap valve is a device and is usually a small valve. It connects the ice maker water supply tube to the water pipe. Replace the tap valve with new one if it is no longer usable.

6. Check your water pressure. The pressure of water plays a vital role in making ice. If it is not strong enough, it hinders the machine to work properly.

7. Check the solenoid. Make sure it is not defective and is receiving power. If it is defective, turn off your refrigerator first. Unplug it and then remove the sediment screen inside the solenoid and flush it with water until it is clean. Check if there are any seals or diaphragm to be sure that they do work properly.
