Title: Ice maker
Post by: Roy Lewis on June 24, 2016, 06:43:12 PM

Good moring, new to the forum and here is my first query. When the uline icemaker cycles and comressor turns off there is a clunking sound. We have a 2002 Marquis Tourmaline. Any ideas?

Hi Roy, I have a 06 Pat and have changed my ice maker two times, the first time I had BCS do it and the last time I did it myself. It's a simple job with good video on U tube. The units are instore stock at Home Depot or Lowes.

Jerry,
He has a stand alone Uline ice maker an it is totally different that the refrigerator mounted unit that you have. In the Uline, the cooling coils are around the try assembly.

Roy,
The only thing that I can think of without a better explanation of the noise is that the fill valve is cycling to refill the tray after it empties. The valve will make a clunk noise in the water lines when it abruptly stops the water flow.

I thought it was "we" that changed out your ice maker!  (Laughing here!)
