# JennAir undercounter ice maker Service light

The Service light on a JennAir freestanding ice maker is the control's request for service.

## What Service light actually means.

The Service light on a JennAir freestanding ice maker is the control's request for service. JennAir asks you to turn the unit off and on once before booking.

What to do when Service light shows on the ice maker

### Kind of code Control board and communication

The boards that run the ice maker stopped hearing each other, or one of them failed: the main control lost contact with the dispenser panel or the ice maker module, or a board reported an electrical problem of its own. Water that dripped onto a connector and a loose harness are checked before a board is ordered by model number. If the ice maker keeps tripping the breaker, leave it off until the visit.

### 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.

### Make JennAir

JennAir ice maker visits, from a quiet dispenser to cubes that come out cloudy.

## Questions about Service light.

### Can I clear Service light myself?

Turn the ice maker off and on. If it comes back, it needs a visit.

### What should I try before a visit for the JennAir Service light?

Turn the ice maker off and back on once.

### Does the JennAir Service light mean the drain pump failed?

It does not say which part. Drain pump models are checked along with the rest.

### Is the JennAir Service light safe to ignore for a while?

The unit may keep running, but JennAir's instruction when it returns is service.
