I have no clue. I assume you have ice maker in fridge. Mine quit working a few days after warranty expired. After a little research, I find that many have problems with this ice maker. Frigidaire response, "TOUGH". I did find ice in the fan. No idea why. Used a hair dryer to melt it. I do not use the ice maker anymore.

You can fix the fan yourself. This user posted a video showing how to do it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EjRDjOL8nCY My penguin model started to develop a whirr, so I followed the instructions in the video and it's now back to quiet. If your fan is totally dead and you're out of warranty, it's easy to replace. It's just a standard 2-pin 80 mm computer fan. They run about $5 on eBay. Unscrew four to six screws on the bottom of the basin, lift off the top or bottom section, unscrew four screws holding the fan, disconnect the fan connector (it's not soldered, just attaches to a pair of pins on the control board,) plug in the new fan and replace the screws. Seriously, a monkey could do it.

The one i got stopped working and so did the replacement after a few usea. It would work olay, but its kindof noisy and the fan is pretty small you have to sit right in front of it for it to work.

Ice machine will shut off. My ice machine lasted only six months before it stopped making ice. Customer service is poor at best.

Check the manual here for the troubleshooting section: http://www.soleusair.com/Manuals/2011%20Manual/SG-DEH-30M%2045%2070-1A%20Soleus%20Manual%203-31-2011.pdfSometimes I think it's just the fan kicking up a speed every once in a while.

Mine is doing the same thing. I finally just stopped using the ice machine unless I need it for a one time use. Was awesome while it lasted :/

I do not know the model of my refiigerator, but it is a 4dr w/ice maker. This one worked. Good luck!

The coil shuts down and when it is cooled off the fan shut off. Hope that helps

The cooling and freezing components have restarted for me. HOWEVER this machine has the absolute WORST ice maker I have had the misfortune to own. I am on a first name basis with the repairman due to several new circuitboards, firmware updates, factory ordered modifications and others. Several times a year! My extended warrenty has expired and the thing gets junked the next time it quits. I'd suggest you buy something else!

The internal fan is broken, same with mine. Opened it up and its a cheap computer fan. I replaced it for 4 dollars at a computer store and it works. If you're under warranty, send it back or take the risk and replace the fan.Good luck

Mine is still working just fine, with light to medium use throughout the week. When the ice maker starts it makes a soft motor sound, which is caused by its pump, and once the ice tray is filled this noise stops. Sometimes, you can also hear a louder sound, made by a cooling fan. This unit is not the most silent on the planet but mine still works. Hope this helps.

Sorry to hear that. Contact the seller and send it back, especially if the fan doesn't come on. good luck

DA97-00258C This is based on looking at some appliance parts web sites. But to be sure, i would look at the picture of this unit on Amazon plus check the part number on your actual ice maker.

Take out the filter and look at the "evaporator". It will probably be covered with ice. I believe this means the unit is low on freon. I had the same problem and have not been able to find anyone to repair it. Mine lasted two seasons.

Yes, it will run a frig with icemaker very well. Fan is loud. Just never counted on and off cycles.

I have not had a problem with the actual cooler for the two years of use. However, I did need to replace the power supply due to a faulty/poor wiring job in its contruction. You will most likely find that this is the problem. If the fan is nonfuctional on the cooler, check the power supply and replace.
