# Liebherr IceMaker lamp blinking above the On/Off button

On Liebherr's CS 1640, the IceMaker draws its water from a removable tank instead of a house line.

## What IceMaker ON/OFF lamp flashing actually means.

On Liebherr's CS 1640, the IceMaker draws its water from a removable tank instead of a house line. When the lamp above the IceMaker's On/Off button blinks, the troubleshooting table's two answers are that the tank needs more water or is not inserted correctly.

What to do when IceMaker ON/OFF lamp flashing shows on the ice maker

### Kind of code Water 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 to Ice 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 as Ice Maker Light Flashing

An ice maker light flashing where it used to glow steadily: a blinking power or ice light, a flashing clean or descale symbol, an add-water light, or a status light on the ice maker itself.

### What not to do

The blinking lamp does not point at a supply line, filter or valve, because this IceMaker has none. It concerns the tank only.

## Questions about IceMaker ON/OFF lamp flashing.

### Can I clear IceMaker ON/OFF lamp flashing myself?

Slide the tank out, fill it with fresh drinking water and slide it back until it stops. If it comes back, it needs a visit.

### Why is the light over my Liebherr IceMaker button blinking?

On tank-fed models it means the tank is low or sitting a little forward of its stop. Refill it and push it all the way back.

### My Liebherr tank is full but the IceMaker lamp still blinks. Why?

The tank may not be all the way in; the manual stresses sliding it right to the back. If it is seated and the lamp still blinks, the ice maker needs a technician.

### Does a Liebherr IceMaker with a tank need a water line?

No. On the CS 1640 the IceMaker takes its water from the tank, so there is no line, valve or filter to check for this signal.
