Why is my ice maker not working but water does?
If the water inlet valve is defective, or if it has insufficient pressure, it won’t allow water to flow through. As a result, the ice maker won’t make ice. The valve requires at least 20 psi to function properly. Make sure that the water pressure to the valve is at least 20 psi.

Why is my Sub-Zero ice maker freezing up?
A lack of ice can also be due to a Sub-Zero ice maker freezing up from ice jams. As an ice maker produces ice, there may be small amounts of water or slush that are not completely frozen as the ice is harvested. This slush can freeze on the ice maker and block new ice from falling into the ice bucket.
How long does it take for a Sub-Zero to make ice?
Answer: All Sub-Zero in-unit ice makers produce eight cubes of ice every 2-3 hours on average. The ice bucket may take 1-2 days to fill completely. Ice production for Built-In and Designer (Formerly Integrated) models may be temporarily increased by initiating the Max Ice feature.
