I’ll admit we don’t know how to DJ, but we do know how to appliance repair/service

Hello, this particular model does not have the option for a filter. You can always add an in-line filter on the back. Between the machine and water supply line.

Sorry for the delay, when you remove the wire cutting grid and the water channel in front of the evaporator plate you can reach pretty easily. Put some nickel safe icemaker cleaner on a sponge and scrub away, maybe even hold the sponge directly on the build up for a bit so it can start breaking it down. Most models you can access somewhat from the top, two screws on the back of machine to move the top to the side a little. Be careful for the main wire harness.

Yes would definitely be a good idea to do at least a good rinse and sanitize wipe down. I’m sorry it’s not more of a “how to” video it was originally intended for a new customer that wasn’t home at the time of service and just decided I would make this video to send to him so he can see the work being done. I just might look into starting some “how to” or “helpful tips” videos. Glad you enjoyed, cleaning ice makers can be very satisfying to me.

@@wolfappliancerepairservice3086 It may have taken me 2.5 hours to descale and deep clean most of the parts but it looks incredible now! Most parts are back to nearly brand new. How did you descale the silver plate and longer tubes? Those were my biggest issues to clean and they still aren't as perfect as I would like. I appreciate even more now. Now to find another afresh bottle to run one last cleaning cycle once it is all back together and get her started back up.

Could be carbon from a newly installed or old water filter, could be that you just need to do a few more rinses of the recirculating system. If you just installed a new filter it’s probably that and water will need to flushed through the filter a few times. You can try running the clean cycle again with no cleaner just water, that should flush out a new filter and rinse the recirculating system pretty good.

I believe this machine was roughly 10-15 years old

@@wolfappliancerepairservice3086 Same age as mine! Must only wash mens clothes. =) Bobby pin rust has stained mine. Every couple of months I'm fishing out dozens! Great vid. Thanks for posting.

I suppose it may be ridiculous to you, but valuable information to others. ;)

William Penn jr. you might have not started the clean cycle properly, or it may have started but not completed. When you run and COMPLETE the clean cycle is the only way to clear the “cleaning needed” light. When your going to run a clean cycle, drain water from the reservoir first, then add your cleaning product (Nickel safe) then add water. After that, then start your cleaning cycle . If you don’t add enough water the “add water/cleaner” light will appear til the water level sensor senses the appropriate amount of water has been added. Then it should begin the cleaning cycle to complete. It should not make ice during this time, just circulates the water through the system and does a few drains and refills to rinse out any residual cleaner.

@@wolfappliancerepairservice3086 I filled the reservior all the way with cleaner and water and pressed the cleaning cycle button. What else is there? why was it still making ice and saying to add cleaner? I followed the directions exactly as it says on the machine.

William Penn jr. It’s very possible you might be having a water level sensor error or control error. Depending on the model you have your water sensor will be an individual part or built into the recirculating pump. Might be time to have it serviced/diagnosed by an experienced technician.
