## What Er25 actually means.

On Viking's FNIU515D, ICE, NO WATER and DRAIN lit steady together is Er25, evaporator freezing: the evaporator outlet temperature fell below the set point for 2 minutes during ice making. Viking ties it to low ambient temperature and says to run the unit when the room is over 50°F.

What to do when Er25 shows on the ice maker

### Kind of code Ice making and harvest

The ice maker froze a batch and could not release it, or the harvest never started: the ejector arm or the twisting tray stalled, the mold heater did not loosen the cubes, or the arm that senses a full bin reported the wrong thing. Ice jammed against the arm and a bin pushed in crooked are cleared first; a motor module or a whole ice maker assembly comes after.

### Usually leads to Ice maker assembly replacement

A new ice maker module fitted in the freezer compartment or the door compartment, after the water, the temperature and the bin sensor have been proved good, so the new part is not blamed for an old problem.

### Shows up as Nugget Ice Maker Not Making Nugget Ice

A nugget ice maker not making ice runs and hums but drops nothing, makes wet slush instead of crisp pellets, or stops after a few batches with a light on.

### Make Viking

## Before you book, in this order.

Each step comes from Viking's own guidance for Er25 on its ice makers. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Check where the unit is installed; an unheated garage, basement or porch can be too cold.

02

Warm the space above 50°F, then switch the unit off and back on.

03

If Er25 returns in a warm room, book a visit.

### Still there?

It usually turns into [ice maker assembly replacement](https://icemakerrepair.center/services/ice-maker-assembly-replacement/). Book with the code and the model number.

### What not to do

Er25 is not the three-lamp blink of Er01. Steady lamps mean too cold; blinking lamps mean too warm.

## Questions about Er25.

### Can I clear Er25 myself?

Check where the unit is installed; an unheated garage, basement or porch can be too cold. If it comes back, it needs a visit.

### Why are all the lamps on steady on my Viking nugget ice maker?

That is Er25. The evaporator has run colder than it should, which Viking links to a cold room around the unit.

### What is the lowest room temperature for a Viking nugget ice maker?

The troubleshooting table says to operate it when the ambient temperature is over 50°F.

### Can Er25 happen in a heated kitchen on a Viking?

It should not. If the room is warm and the lamps still come on steady, a sensor or control problem is more likely and needs a technician.
