Hi,

 

I have a Samsung RSH1FBRS american style fridge. All is working fine except that the ice maker has stopped making ice. The water dispenser is working fine and i have tried the test button in the ice maker unit and it all works ok except for the ice tray which is not being filled with water. Please can you advise what I should do as this does not seem like a mechanical fault?

 

Regards, Barry

Yes thanks, these are all pretty basic things that I have checked. I have also filled the tray manually with water to see if it froze and was ejected from the tray and it all worked fine. The filtered water dispenser is working fine so there is no issue with the water supply. The only thing I can think of is whether the actual water pipe inside the freezer that supplies the tray has somehow been frozen or blocked but I can't see how to test this.....any ideas?

Might need a visit from an approved Samsung engineer to check that.

 

Just to confirm, have you checked that the water filter is properly fitted in?

The Samsung approved repairer didnt even return my call so I had a go myself and it seemed to fix it (or it was just a coincidence). I took the back off and cleaned the area at the bottom and when I took off the water inlet at the top there seemed to be a slight gap in the foil shielding. I wondered whether this was enough for the cold to get in a freeze the pipe so I wrapped a load of kitchen foil around it and replaced it all. Seems to be fine now.
