will not make Ice, keeps saying to add water which has been done. Did turn off the unit unplugged it and started over still having the same issue.

Are you filling it to the max fill line? It usually takes a couple of minutes for the water signal to reset. Mine did that and I lightly banged the sides and it started working. If that's not the problem then you may have to call Edge Star for help.

The new ice maker should not do that, I installed one and it worked perfectly and cranked tons of ice. You do need to make sure it is plugged in properly and there is no damage to the power cable or connectors. I think I left my old cable and reconnected it to the unit and it worked fine.

no! You have to return the chill unit to the freezer for at least a few hours. If it hasn't defrosted too much, 1 hour might do it, but it works better when the chill tank is hard frozen. You can buy an extra one which will solve your problem.

Did you make sure the temp +/- is set to the temp you want? Every time my power goes off or o unplug it, it resets itself and I have to reset the temp to blow cooler. Also, there is a setting to blow just room air around. Make sure you aren't accidentally on that. Download a booklet and see where the settings should be to blow cool. These things don't have freon, do they??? If so, it could need coolant. When you cleaned it, could you have a loose connection inside somewhere? I've never had trouble with mine, like others seem to. But usually it is because people aren't draining theirs, but trying to use it with it plugged up. And even though they say they'll work that way, they don't. The water must drain. I really love this thing, but using it is complicated.

This unit isn't worth buying as far as i am concerned. the temps are very low. i never could get it to boil water.

Yes. One hand to dial your phone to call customer service and another to write down the phone number of the authorized service center. Tomorrow I will be getting the ice maker replaced for the third or fourth time. The service man has been here so many times to fix this refrigerator I can't remember the exact number. My sister has the same refrigerator and has had it fixed four or five times. There was a class action suit against LG for this refrigerator. When the ice maker is working and the water is dispensing all you need is one hand to get water. When the ice maker is broken it does not dispense any water so you don't need any hands at all.

Mine did the same and they told me to put warm water init so I did that and it still didn't work so I sent it back and they sent me a new one and it runs for most of the night now.

Good Luck, the 1st cooler we bought from Haier it didn't heat up. So they shipped us a 2nd one and that one didn't get cold. The 3rd one was cracked. After that we just went elsewhere. I would check to see if the thermostat is up? There might be a switch to activate the coldness

Make sure you turn the water on first then pull the spout down. If that does not work I have the slightest idea.

and just a note...DO NOT follow the instructions of person that says plug it in and pour water. you have to let freon? settle in machine before adding water.

I had a similar one (same brand) snap off in a freeze...I forgot to turn the water off and disconnect it. Otherwise, no problems.

Mirtha, I contacted Cuisinart (call them toll free: 800-726-0190) and customer service stated their PATENTED 'blue ice' formula does stop freezing, (go bad) and the cause is unknown. If you have used it for 2 years, you still have a year warranty remaining (they come with 3 year warranty) so call & give them the serial # & model # and they will replace it - free.

You are overheating your mixer, it will break! Too much ice along with frozen mushy fruits will clog the motor. You probably dont have enough liquid and should start small and then add more once the first portion is started. Read the manual.

We bought one for the garage. We have a defective unit. It doesn't heat up like they said, puts out little heat. If you get one that doesn't work, have fun getting it replaced. We are still trying. $161 down the drain so far. They will only replace if you return it within 7 days. Then there is a 15% restock fee too. Didn't learn that till we tried to return it.

If your problemis that the unit doesn not maintain the desired temperature, my unit's temp did the same thing after a month or so. having nowhere to turn, I solved the problem by putting one of those frozen containers that come with plastic beverage and food coolers on the top shelve of the left compartment. I then kept entering the desired temp several times for both compartments. It took two shots with the frozen pack, but it worked. Both sides now hold their set temp.Goog luck.bluefox803@aol.com

Ours didn't work either. I even bought a different one at the local grocery store and need up returning it because it didn't work either. I gave up and figured you had to get something more expensive to actually get a slushing or snow cone.

The unit only keeps the small opening in the center ice free, not around the outer part of the unit. Did you put in water or on top of ice? It will not melt ice, in fact once the temperature gets to about 5 degrees for any length of time, the hole will freeze up.
