Viking Refrigerator Ice Maker Not Dispensing Ice
A Viking refrigerator ice maker that produces ice but will not dispense through the door chute has a different fault than one that stops producing ice. Common causes include an ice bridge (clumped ice blocking the dispenser chute), a failed auger motor that drives ice from the bin to the chute, or a failed dispenser door flapper.
What Causes the Ice Dispenser Fault Error?
Ice cubes have clumped together in the ice bin, forming a solid mass that blocks the auger. Break up the ice bridge manually.
The motor that drives the ice auger from the storage bin to the dispenser chute has failed.
The flapper at the end of the dispenser chute that opens to release ice has become stuck or broken.
Basic Steps Before Calling a Technician
-
01Break Up Ice Bridge
Remove the ice bin and check for clumped ice. Break up any ice bridge manually and return the bin. Allow 24 hours for ice production to resume.
When to Call a Technician
If breaking up the ice bridge does not restore dispensing, the auger motor or dispenser flapper requires professional replacement.
