How to narrow it down

Use the brand, appliance type, and exact code together. A symptom search can point to the right category, but the model number controls the exact manual steps and access points.

Open the matching code page below for aliases, model-family notes, source links, and the safest check order.

Safe first checks

  1. Confirm the refrigerator water supply is open.
  2. Check that the ice bucket is seated correctly.
  3. Clear visible ice from the chute without sharp tools.
  4. Check the water filter status if the display shows H2O or a filter reminder.
  5. Use only the model-approved ice maker reset.

Stop troubleshooting when

  • Water leaks from the dispenser, filter, or rear supply line.
  • The ice-room fan is noisy, frozen, or not moving air.
  • The code returns after visible bucket, chute, and water checks.
