Uline Ice Maker - Troublehooting

[JeffreyAC77]

We have the ULN-SP18FCW-03A ice maker in our cockpit. It lights up on the panel but does not produce any ice. Any idea where to start looking for the problem? Boat is a 2015 R31-CB LE.

You did not mention if your ice maker is cooling or not. I have one that cooled but the thermostat was faulty and actually kept the temp too low. I was told the icemaker has about a 4 or 5 degree window in which it will make ice. Changed the thermostat and all was well. Thing I checked along the way were water supply making sure the water valve was opening and supplying water to the ice maker. Put your finger where the ice is made and see if it is wet or if it has very small cubes
check inside temp with thermometer overnight. This is a place to start The mechanical part of the icemeker can be bad as well. Good luck

Thanks for your response. All of these are on schedule for my next visit to the marina. How do I check the thermostat for functionality?

Just put a thermometer inside and monitor it for 24hr. see what temp it holds at throughout the day.
