What DI SP
actually means.
On Electrolux models with a door dispenser, DI SP and a tone mean a cube has stayed in the chute too long. Electrolux names two usual causes: cubes that melted and froze together around the auger, and cubes wedged behind the bin, up against the ice maker.

What to do when DI SP shows on the ice makerKind of codeDispenser and auger
The dispenser was asked for ice and could not deliver it: the auger motor stalled against a frozen block, the flap at the bottom of the chute stayed shut, or the paddle switch never told the control it was pressed. Emptying the bin and thawing the chute come before the auger motor, the door flap solenoid or the switch is replaced.
Usually leads toIce dispenser and auger repair
The auger, its motor, the crusher, the chute flap and the paddle switch that move ice from the bin to your glass, or push soft nugget ice up and out, checked and repaired when the ice stops coming.
Shows up asIce Dispenser Not Working
The ice dispenser not working means you press the paddle and nothing comes, or the motor hums without ice, or only a few chips fall while the bin behind the door is full.

Before you book,
in this order.
Each step comes from Electrolux's own guidance for DI SP on its ice makers. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Look into the chute and lift out any cube that is stuck there.
Remove the ice bin, thaw and empty it, wash it with mild detergent, dry it well and slide it back.
Press CLEAR ALERTS or unplug for 30 seconds; if DI SP returns with an empty, dry bin, book a visit.

What not to do
DI SP does not mean the fresh food ice maker has stopped working. It also is not related to the water filter or the water supply.

Electrolux ice maker repair
Door ice maker
The ice maker that feeds the dispenser on the outside of a door: tucked into an insulated box in the left door of a French door model, or at the top of the freezer side of a side-by-side, with a chute and an auger carrying cubes to your glass.
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.
In Electrolux's own words
Indicates there is ice jammed in the shoot. An alarm will sound when a cube is stuck in the shoot too long.
