Ice maker stopped producing? We fix water lines, valves, and modules. Same-day service, 90-day warranty. Average repair cost: $100–$300. Some causes are DIY-fixable — see below.
Ice Maker not making ice repair typically costs $100 to $300. Some causes are DIY-fixable, but professional diagnosis is recommended if the problem persists. Most repairs are completed in 1-1.5 hours with a free diagnostic visit.
Frozen water line
Faulty water inlet valve
Failed ice maker module
Thermostat set wrong
Clogged water filter
The thin water line feeding the ice maker freezes when freezer temperature is set too low or the line runs through an extremely cold zone. In older Bay Area homes with extended plumbing routes, the exposed line section between the wall and refrigerator is vulnerable during cold spells in unheated spaces.
Cost: $80–$150 | Time: 30-60 minutes
The inlet valve opens to fill the ice mold. It requires minimum 20 PSI water pressure to function. In Bay Area homes with long plumbing runs or shared water lines, pressure at the valve drops below this threshold. The valve may also fail electrically from age or PG&E power fluctuations.
Cost: $100–$220 | Time: 45-75 minutes
Water filters reduce flow rate as they fill with contaminants. Bay Area municipal water carries minerals and sediment that clog filters faster than rated — a 6-month filter may need replacement at 3-4 months. Once flow drops below the ice maker minimum, production stops entirely.
Cost: $40–$100 | Time: 15-30 minutes
The ice maker module (motor and control unit) cycles through fill, freeze, harvest, and dump. When the motor or thermostat inside fails, the cycle stops at one stage. Bay Area homes with frequent power interruptions during winter storms can corrupt the module's cycle position.
Cost: $150–$300 | Time: 1-1.5 hours

Verified reviews from homeowners across San Francisco and Bay Area
“My exprience with Easy Bear was absolutely superior from the beginning. I had a Subzero decide to quit. Daniel assessed the issue immediately, ordered the required new " motherboard" and had it installed within three days. My prior replacement of said part took 5 months during Covid. Daniel is smart, professional, clearly knows his trade . I most definitely will use Easy Bear in the future.”

“Daniel the technician came to diagnose what's causing our washing machine water overflowing. He didn't actually have to do anything to solve the issue, because as soon as he turned it back on, it began to work properly, but explained what the probable cause was. He was sincere and clear on the matter related to the situation. I wasn't charged for his visit as I was told ahead of time. Stanislav was also cordial arranging for all of the process. I will call them next time I need an appliance service without hesitation.”
