Open the shutoff valve that feeds the unit fully and look along the line for kinks. If it comes back, it needs a visit. ### What does the blinking NO WATER lamp on my Viking nugget ice maker mean? The level sensor has seen no water for two minutes, which Viking logs as Er15. Start with the shutoff valve and the supply line. ### Will my Viking nugget unit restart by itself after Er15? Yes. Viking's table says the error resets automatically after 5 minutes, so it will try again once water is available. ### Could a new water filter cause Er15 on a Viking nugget ice maker? A filter that is clogged or not seated properly can starve the unit of water. If the lamp started blinking after a filter change, check that the filter is installed correctly. --- **[Read on the site: Viking nugget model: NO WATER lamp blinking (Er15)](https://icemakerrepair.center/error-codes/viking-er15/)** **[Book a visit with IceMakerRepair.center](https://icemakerrepair.center/schedule/)**
