No ice at all
Why did it stop with the bin half empty?
Nothing in the cabinet weighs the ice. It senses only whether something is in the way, so a heap of cubes under the arm, or a bin standing proud of its rails, reads exactly like a full one. Denver Sub-Zero Repair Experts levels the bin, clears the path and watches a cycle through before anything electrical is opened up.
Pattern
What we usually find
- Cubes heaped under the shut-off arm. An arm that should drop into clear space comes to rest on ice instead, and the cycle politely stops.
- A bin off its seat. Sub-Zero asks for it level, seated in place and the rails pushed all the way in before anything else is considered.
- A cube wedged between the mould and the bin, which halts the sweep long before the storage space is anywhere near used up.
- Ice welded into one block after weeks of slow turnover, so it no longer settles flat and holds the arm permanently raised.
Most often first. Order comes from what the visits keep turning up, not from a count.
Why a misplaced bin costs a day
Sub-Zero notes that a bin out of position can hold ice production back by as much as twenty-four hours, so reseating it and looking again ten minutes later proves nothing at all. Reseat it, then judge it the next morning.
Full and blocked look identical
A machine resting under a genuinely full bin is behaving correctly and needs no attention. The same stillness under a half-empty one means the sensing path is lying to it, and that is the arm, the bin, or a cube somewhere it should not be.
Before you call
Two minutes, before anyone comes out
- Lift the bin out, break up any welded block, and level the cubes before it goes back.
- Push the bin in until the rails stop, then check it is sitting square in the opening.
- Leave it several hours and see whether a fresh batch arrives on its own.
Stop there. If that has not settled it by the next morning, call Denver Sub-Zero Repair Experts on (720) 903-2603 and the rest of the water path gets traced with a meter.
