What do these codes on the ice maker mean?

Apr 28,2026

The ice maker is a mechanical device that automatically produces ice cubes by cooling water through an evaporator in a refrigeration system. It is widely used in homes, restaurants, bars, hotels, hospitals, and food processing industries. Different types of ice makers produce ice cubes of varying shapes and hardness, suitable for different applications.

E 05

High temperature fault (the condensing temperature sensor exceeds 68°C for 3 consecutive seconds)

1. Ambient temperature is too high

2. Cooling fan is damaged

3. Condenser is too dirty

Check related parts

E 06

System high pressure fault (pressure switch disconnected)

1. Condenser temperature is too high

2. Refrigeration system is clogged

3. Pressure switch is faulty

1. Check the refrigeration system pressure

2. Check the condensing and cooling system

E 07

Ice full shutdown
