KitchenAid KUIX505E Ice Maker Repair

KitchenAid ice maker

Most common issues on this model

  1. Scale on the evaporator giving cloudy cubes
  2. Restricted water inlet valve or supply line
  3. Drain line blockage or failing drain pump
  4. Dirty condenser causing long run times and little ice

Homes with a KUIX505E tend to put it in a pantry cabinet or a game-room bar, where warm air and dust are the main enemies. The KUIX505E is a 15-inch automatic ice maker, and it is also sold as the KUIX505EBS and KUIX505ESS.

We take its history into account. If the machine has been quiet for a while, we first confirm it has power and water, and then check the control by reading the cycle at the start. Many calls end with a valve screen full of sediment or a coil that has not been cleaned since installation.

When those are clear, we test the freeze plate, the harvest and the drain pump in order. Nothing is replaced without a reason we can show you. Your price is written before the repair, and our 30-day workmanship warranty follows it.

KUIX505EKUIX505E questions
My KUIX505E has power but makes no ice. What is the first check?

We confirm the water is reaching the machine, since a closed valve or clogged screen is the simplest cause. Then we watch the control start a cycle and follow the freeze and harvest steps.

Are the BS and SS versions identical inside?

They share the same base model, so the ice-making system is the same. Only the finish differs. We use the rating plate to match any trim or panel parts.

Why does the coil need cleaning if the unit is behind a cabinet door?

Room dust still gets drawn through the grille. Over time it forms a mat on the coil that traps heat, so the compressor runs longer for less ice. A visit clears it quickly.
