Ice Maker Not Working? Safe Checks for Samsung, LG and Other Fridges

Quick answer

Common causes are the ice maker being switched off, a blocked bail arm or sensor, a clogged or overdue water filter, a frozen fill tube, or a closed water supply valve behind the fridge.

Safety first: unplug the appliance or switch off its breaker before touching anything inside, and shut off the water or gas supply where it applies. If you smell gas, leave the house and call your gas utility from outside.
