What Ice maker PCB LED: 4 flashes means

Four flashes of the LED on the ice-making board of Fisher & Paykel ActiveSmart ice and water refrigerators in the E522B series, such as the E522BRXFDU and E522BLXU mean the temperature sensor is too cold or open circuit. The ice maker cannot get a sensible reading, so it may stop making or releasing ice. The LED sits on the board at the rear power module, visible only from the back, and no flashes means no problem.

Common causes of Ice maker PCB LED: 4 flashes

  • Ice maker temperature sensor reading too cold
  • Sensor circuit open
  • Loose sensor connection at the ice maker
✓ One safe check you can try

1. Check that the freezer is not set colder than needed, and the door seal is clean. 2. Unplug the refrigerator for five minutes, plug it back in, and give it a day. 3. Look for frost buildup around the ice maker that you can see without tools. 4. If the LED keeps flashing four times, call us.

! Why to stop there
  • A too-cold or open reading needs the sensor circuit measured
  • The sensor and wiring are part of the ice maker assembly
  • Guessing between a cold freezer and a failed sensor wastes visits
Opening a panel yourself does not automatically cancel a manufacturer warranty, but it can cause accidental damage, and some manufacturers set their own service conditions. Check your warranty terms, or ask us, before deciding.

Ice maker PCB LED: 4 flashesIce maker PCB LED: 4 flashes questions
How is four flashes different from three?

Three flashes mean the sensor reads too hot. Four mean it reads too cold, or the circuit is open, so no usable reading arrives.

Can an open circuit be a loose plug?

Yes, a loose connector can look the same as a failed sensor. A technician checks the connection before replacing parts.

Does it affect food storage?

Not directly. It concerns the ice maker, but get it checked so ice production returns. We quote in writing first.
