Error Code Explained
What Does the Viking Ice Maker No Production Error Code Mean?
A Viking refrigerator ice maker that stops producing ice is one of the most common service calls. The automatic ice maker assembly produces ice through a fill-freeze-harvest cycle controlled by a thermostat and motor. Common causes include a failed water inlet valve, a frozen water supply line, a failed ice maker thermostat, or a failed ice maker module.
