What ICE and NO WATER lamps blinking
actually means.
On Viking's FNIU515D, ICE and NO WATER blinking together is the evaporator temperature sensor error. The sensor at the evaporator outlet is disconnected or shorted, so the control cannot manage the freezing process.

What to do when ICE and NO WATER lamps blinking shows on the ice makerKind of codeTemperature sensors
The control lost track of how cold the ice mold or the ice compartment is, because a thermistor reads nonsense or its wire lost contact. Without that reading the ice maker cannot tell when a batch is frozen, so it stops or harvests at the wrong time. Frost packed around the sensor and a loose plug are checked before the sensor itself is changed.

The control board, the thermistors, the bin sensor and the wiring that decide when an ice maker fills, freezes and stops, tested and repaired when a light flashes, a code shows, a breaker trips or the ice never stops coming.
