Kevin for Model Number KUIC18NNTS1

My ice maker is not making ice of proper thickness. Sensors were replaced and problem persisted. I disconnected unit to see if it would reset itself. I then plugged back in and problem continued. When the unit is turned on, water fills reservoir and then flows over area where ice forms. But it seems like the unit cycles too soon -- water flowing over ice maker shuts off prematurely, the thin ice sheet slides off and it is then cut, but it is very thin ice. Is this a control board issue or an issue with another part?

Answer

Kevin,

The average time that the water should flow and form on the evaporator would be about 25 minutes. If the evaporator coil is not getting cold enough then this will cause the issue. You will want to check the condenser fan during the cycle to see if it is blowing and make sure that the condenser coils under the unit is not impacted with dust. These would be the most common causes for the issue.
