# True clear ice maker showing LnG FiL

On True's 15-inch clear ice models, LnG alternating with FiL is the long fill code: the unit could not fill its reservoir within the allotted time.

## What LnG FiL actually means.

On True's 15-inch clear ice models, LnG alternating with FiL is the long fill code: the unit could not fill its reservoir within the allotted time. True's first checks are that the water filter is installed and the water supply is turned on.

What to do when LnG FiL 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 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.

## Questions about LnG FiL.

### Can I clear LnG FiL myself?

Check that the water filter is installed correctly; the unit needs it in place to pass water. If it comes back, it needs a visit.

### Why does my True ice maker show LnG and FiL?

The reservoir took too long to fill. Start with the filter and the water supply valve, as True's quick reference sheet suggests.

### Can a new filter cause LnG FiL on a True clear ice maker?

A filter that is not fully seated or is clogged can slow the fill. Reseat it and check that water is reaching the unit.

### Is LnG FiL on a True the same as LnG ICE?

No. LnG FiL is about filling the reservoir; LnG ICE means a freeze cycle ran too long.
