My kitchen aid ice maker kuia15nlhs11 is making ice too much ice and will not stop.
Kitchenaid ice maker making too much ice. If the ice bin is not in the correct place the shutoff arm will not work properly and the ice maker will continue to produce ice. The sensor will automatically stop ice production if the storage bin is full if the door is open or the storage bin is removed. Thanks for any and all help with why it is making too much ice and what i might need to do to fix it. If you have removed the shelf from the freezer there will be too much space between the ice maker and the ice bin.
The ice maker is located on the left hand side of the refrigerator compartment ceiling. If the sensor is blocked or dirty it could cause the ice maker to stop ice production or make too much ice. Clean the ice tray if the ice has a strange flavor. There may be some buildup or debris in the tray so wash with a solution of liquid dish soap and water.
Be sure to rinse thoroughly with clean water. Make sure the ice bin is directly below the ice maker. Select the accelerated ice production feature when you have an upcoming need for a large amount of ice and the ice bin is low or empty. Inspect the ice maker s shutoff arm if the unit is making too much ice.
The arm detects the amount of ice and shuts down production when it. This is the first problem i have had with this unit so i am feeling kind of lucky. I think it might be the ice bin thermostat any thoughts. Ice cubes are ejected into the ice storage bin located on the left hand refrigerator door.
Max ice fast ice or accelerated ice mode will produce a greater quantity of ice in a 24 hour period.
