# Bertazzoni French door ice maker showing EE

EE on a 36-inch Bertazzoni French door model points at the sensor that belongs to the ice maker.

## What EE actually means.

EE on a 36-inch Bertazzoni French door model points at the sensor that belongs to the ice maker. Bertazzoni keeps it apart from the freezer's own sensor, and the unit goes on cooling while it shows, though ice may be affected until the sensor is checked.

What to do when EE shows on the ice maker

### Kind of code Temperature sensors

The control lost track of how cold the ice mold or the ice compartment is, because a thermistor reads nonsense or its wire lost contact. Without that reading the ice maker cannot tell when a batch is frozen, so it stops or harvests at the wrong time. Frost packed around the sensor and a loose plug are checked before the sensor itself is changed.

### Usually leads to Ice maker control and sensor repair

The control board, the thermistors, the bin sensor and the wiring that decide when an ice maker fills, freezes and stops, tested and repaired when a light flashes, a code shows, a breaker trips or the ice never stops coming.

### Shows up as No Ice Coming From the Ice Maker

The mold sits empty or holds one frozen batch that never drops, the bin stays bare for days, and the dispenser gives water as usual: an ice maker not making ice while the rest of the appliance carries on normally.

## Before you book, in this order.

Each step comes from Bertazzoni's own guidance for EE on its ice makers. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Leave the freezer drawer closed for a few hours so the ice maker area can settle at freezer temperature.

02

Switch the unit off at the breaker for a minute and back on to see whether EE clears.

03

If EE returns, book a visit; the sensor or its connection needs testing.

### Still there?

It usually turns into [ice maker control and sensor repair](https://icemakerrepair.center/services/ice-maker-control-and-sensor-repair/). Book with the code and the model number.

### What not to do

EE is not the freezer compartment sensor, which Bertazzoni lists separately as E2. A reading problem at the ice maker leaves the freezer's own temperature control untouched.

## What you may notice with it.

### Freezer ice maker

The ice maker that sits inside the freezer compartment itself, a tray that twists or a mold with a heater and an ejector, dropping cubes into a bin or drawer you open by hand, with no dispenser on the door.

## Questions about EE.

### Can I clear EE myself?

Leave the freezer drawer closed for a few hours so the ice maker area can settle at freezer temperature. If it comes back, it needs a visit.

### Is EE on a Bertazzoni the same as a freezer temperature problem?

No. Bertazzoni gives the freezer compartment sensor its own code, E2, and EE belongs to the ice maker's sensor. Your frozen food is not what the code is about.

### Why would a sensor code slow my Bertazzoni ice maker down?

Ice makers generally rely on a sensor reading to decide when a batch is frozen and ready to drop. Bertazzoni gives no more detail than the code itself, so a technician reads the sensor before blaming the rest of the ice maker.

### Can I replace the EE sensor on a Bertazzoni French door model myself?

Bertazzoni gives owners no repair steps for EE, only a request to call for service. The sensor is inside the ice maker area of the freezer and has to be tested before it is changed, so book a visit.
