How do I reset my ice maker?

Resetting an automatic residential refrigerator ice maker to clear internal microchip freezes, sensor errors, or stuck harvest cycles involves a simple power cycle or manual reset procedure. For electronic ice makers, you can perform a reset by pressing and holding the diagnostic test button on the front face of the unit for five seconds until it initiates a harvest cycle. Alternatively, you can perform a full electrical hard reset of the entire refrigerator by unplugging the power cord from the wall outlet for five to ten minutes, which allows the main control board to reboot. You can troubleshoot control freezes easily. You can verify that your reset procedure was successful when the ice maker motor engages, cycles its mechanical arm, and begins filling the mold tray with fresh water.
