What Er gF
actually means.
Er gF on a Kenmore 795 is a flow meter code. The flow meter measures water entering the refrigerator for the ice maker and dispenser, and Sears asks for water pressure and flow to be checked first.

What to do when Er gF shows on the ice makerKind of codeWater supply and fill
The ice maker asked for water and got too little, too slowly or none at all, or water kept arriving after the fill should have ended. A closed shutoff, a kinked line, a clogged filter and low house pressure are ruled out before the water inlet valve is replaced or the fill tube is thawed. If water is on the floor, close the supply valve before reading anything on the display.
Usually leads toIce maker water inlet valve repair
The electric valve that lets water into the ice maker, tested and replaced when it will not open, opens only partway, or keeps dripping after it should have closed.
Shows up asNo 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 Kenmore's own guidance for Er gF on its ice makers. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Make sure the supply valve behind the refrigerator is fully open.
Look for a kinked line when the refrigerator was last moved.
Replace a filter that is old or clogged.
If Er gF stays with good pressure, book a visit.

What not to do
Er gF does not mean the ice maker itself has failed. It is about water arriving, so a low-pressure home or a closed valve can trigger it.

Water supply and fill on other makes
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.
