Ice Maker Repair
Clear-ice module, inlet valve, fill-tube and drain work on Sub-Zero ice makers.
How this gets described on the phone
- “No ice at all for about a week, and the bin is empty”
- “Cubes come out hollow, small, or white and cloudy”
- “Water dripping down inside the freezer and freezing on the floor of it”
- “Ice tastes and smells like whatever is in the freezer”
What the visit involves
The unit is read before it is opened: cabinet and evaporator temperatures logged, the defrost circuit forced and timed, condenser and fans checked, door seals tested against the cabinet. Where the readings point at the sealed system it goes under gauges — that is EPA 608 work and it is not guessed at.
You get the measurements and a firm parts-and-labour number before anything is dismantled. Integrated and panel-ready Sub-Zero units are pulled on protection and reset on their original shims, so the door line matches the cabinet run when we leave.
What this repair costs
The bands below are the whole published register for Sub-Zero built-in work in Bothell — this repair will fall inside one of them, and which one is settled by the diagnosis rather than guessed at over the phone.
Flat $89 service call covering the visit and full diagnosis, credited against the repair once you approve it.
- Door gasket or seal replacement $270–$620
- Evaporator or condenser fan motor $320–$720
- Defrost heater, thermostat or sensor $290–$640
- Ice maker, water valve or supply line $290–$820
- Electronic control board $390–$970
- Compressor or sealed-system repair $1,360–$3,150
For comparison a comparable built-in replacement, before installation and cabinetry work $11,830–$23,360
Each line is a range because the part your model takes, and how far the cabinet has to come apart to reach it, decide where inside it a job lands. You get one firm parts-and-labour figure in writing on site and you agree it before a screw is turned; it does not move after that without your say-so. The $89 service call comes off that figure as soon as you approve the work, and if the repair stops making sense against the replacement number above, you will be told that instead of sold the job.

Ice tasted of everything else in the freezer and the cubes were sticking into one lump. A slow drip down the fill tube plus a tired filter, both dealt with in one visit. I did wait most of the afternoon.

Water was dripping inside and freezing into a small rink on the compartment floor. He traced a cracked fill tube, replaced it, then checked the drain with the panel off. He vacuumed up the ice chips too.

Called about a dead ice maker and got useful advice on the wine side too. The fault was the module control. Replaced, and tested through two harvest cycles before he left.
