On Fisher & Paykel ActiveSmart Ice & Water refrigerators like the E522BLXU, Code 43 means the ice maker fill tube heater draws low current, or its element is open. That nozzle heater keeps the fill area free of ice. The code appears in a technician's data readout, so the owner often notices a frozen fill tube and small or missing ice. Ice may be small or missing.
1. Unplug the refrigerator for five minutes and restart. 2. Look for ice around the fill area; do not chip it. 3. Check the water line is not kinked. 4. If ice returns, call us. Wipe up any water on the floor. Also avoid chipping at the fill tube, since it is easy to crack.
If the nozzle heater is open, the fill tube can freeze and stop water from entering the tray. The tube freezes because the heater stays cold. Ask us.
It is the opposite. Code 42 means too much heater current. Code 43 means too little, an open element. Ice cubes may be small or missing while the element stays open.
