What Lo t2
actually means.
On True's 15-inch clear ice models, Lo alternating with t2 means the ambient temperature is too cold. True says to wait for the temperature to rise and to winterize the appliance to prevent damage; an outdoor unit left running near freezing can split lines or parts.

What to do when Lo t2 shows on the ice makerKind of codeMode, not a failure
Something the ice maker was switched into, often without anyone noticing, rather than something that broke: ice turned off from the panel or by the wire arm lifted while reaching into the bin, a control lock, a Sabbath setting, a cleaning cycle still running, a reminder that the water filter is due. No part has worn out, and the ice maker's own buttons or arm put it right.
Usually leads toNo repair
Let the space warm up before restarting the unit.
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.

Let the space warm up before restarting the unit.
For an outdoor unit in cold months, follow True's winterizing steps to drain the water.
If Lo t2 shows in a warm room, book a visit.
Cleared?
The ice maker is filling and dropping cubes again and no part was needed. If the same code returns during the next harvest, or water shows up on the floor again, book it as a new problem.
What not to do

Book with the code or the blink pattern written exactly as the ice maker shows it, the full model number, and whether there is any water on the floor — when there is a code, that is where the diagnosis starts.
