Viking Refrigerator Ice Maker Not Working? Pound Ridge Solutions
Troubleshooting Your Viking Ice Maker
Viking refrigerators are built to perform, but ice makers can be temperamental. Before calling for service, here are some troubleshooting steps our Pound Ridge technicians recommend.
Quick Checks First
1. Is the Ice Maker Turned On?
It sounds simple, but the ice maker arm or switch may have been accidentally turned off. Check the on/off switch or lift arm position.
2. Check the Water Supply
Ensure the water supply valve behind the refrigerator is fully open. A kinked or frozen water line can also restrict flow.
3. Freezer Temperature
The freezer should be at 0°F (-18°C) for optimal ice production. If it's too warm, ice won't form properly.
