Technical Information
No ice with F0121 icemaker fault
On new Installations, remove the toekick/grille and check the electrical
connections to the water valves. The installer may have inadvertently
knocked the Molex connector off one of the valves.
Make sure the icemaker is not physically blocked in any way, check for
packing materials or an improperly installed ice bin. Check for a stuck ice
cube somewhere around the tray.
Reset the power to the unit; the F0121 may have been caused by a
power line transient.
Since there are no user serviceable parts in the icemaker, the last resort
is to replace the icemaker as long as all other conditions are nominal.
F 1471 not dispensing ice
The F 1471 freezer (IWD) will not dispense ice until the 'flushing procedure' is
successfully carried out. See page 24 of the owners' manual for this
procedure.

F 1471 Dispenser Flap
Some customers may notice that the flap on their ice dispenser may open
and close by itself in a seemingly random fashion. This is by design. The
flap will open and close as part of the normal anti-condensation process. This
is an adaptive process, meaning its frequency is based on temperatures and
door usage. This process is ultimately designed to prevent the ice flap from
being stuck in the closed position due to ice formation and/or residue. There
is no reason to set up service because of this behavior.

Icemaker Diagnosis Update
We've published many guidelines for diagnosing a 'No Ice' situation. Recently
it has been discovered that there is a remote possibility that the water line
between the inlet valves and the icemaker could be kinked. It is possible to
carefully cut out the damaged section and re-attach the line to the inlet valve.
If you find that this has occurred, please notify Engineering Services.
