U-Line Ice Maker Error Code E1
The E1 error code on a U-Line ice maker indicates that the water inlet valve is closed or clogged. This valve is responsible for supplying water to the ice maker, so if it is not working properly, the ice maker will not be able to produce ice.
There are a few possible causes for the E1 error code:
- The water supply to the ice maker is not turned on. Check the water supply to the ice maker and make sure that it is turned on.
- The water inlet valve is closed. Check the water inlet valve to make sure that it is open. If the valve is closed, you can try to open it by hand. If you are unable to open the valve, you may need to replace it.
- The water inlet valve is clogged. The water inlet valve can become clogged with debris, such as minerals or sediment. If the valve is clogged, you can try to clean it with a pipe cleaner or a needle. If you are unable to clean the valve, you may need to replace it.
Here are some troubleshooting steps you can try if you are getting the E1 error code:
- Check the water supply to the ice maker. Make sure that the water supply to the ice maker is turned on.
