Recently technicians at Nebraska Home Appliance began offering appliance repair
suggestions at www.omahaappliancerepair.org with the latest being “How to Defrost an Ice Maker.”
They suggest home owners follow the steps listed below.
1.
Unplug the refrigerator and remove ice from the ice maker and the ice tray. Any
food near the ice maker should be moved to another spot in the freezer or
refrigerator.
2 Locate the water fill tube that runs from the water supply to
the ice maker. Look for a small metal clip that holds the tube in place, if one
is present pull it down and remove it.
3 Use a heat gun on low speed and point it at
the refill tube to defrost. Dry any water with a towel as the frost melts, and
be careful not to melt any plastic parts in the ice maker or freezer. If one doesn't
want to use a heat gun, place the ice tray under the tube to catch the water,
and pour small amounts of hot water over the tube with a small cup or baster.
4 Replace the metal clip and the ice tray before plugging in
the refrigerator.
