Sub-Zero Repair in Sherwood Forest, Bellevue

Sherwood Forest sits in the East sector of our map. This page is about a Sub-Zero ice maker that has stopped, and why the freezer door is part of the answer.

When the ice maker in a Sherwood Forest Sub-Zero stops, the owner's list in Sub-Zero's guide comes first, then the freezer door. Sub-Zero Appliance Repair Bellevue confirms that the door seals and the freezer holds near 0°F before judging the ice maker itself. Call (425) 696-2636 with the model from the tag.

Sub-Zero’s list for no ice

The Designer guide gives owners a short list when no ice is coming: the ice cube symbol showing on the control, the ice maker switched on for at least a full day, the freezer near 0°F, the ice container properly in place, the shut-off arm down, water reaching the unit, and a water filter changed within the last year and seated properly. Where the house runs a reverse-osmosis system, the guide has the unit’s own filter taken out.

Where the door comes in

Freezer temperature is on that list for a reason, and it is where our part begins. A freezer door that has stopped sealing holds the compartment above its setting, and a warm freezer makes ice poorly with nothing wrong in the ice maker.

Reaching the ice maker behind a panelled door takes some planning. The ice container is reached by pulling a freezer basket open, and on a column freezer whose door is limited to 90 degrees, the guide has the top basket out before a lower one. The same guide asks for the ice maker to be switched off whenever the container is out; a three-minute delay keeps cubes from dropping in the meantime. We follow that order rather than forcing a basket past a door that will not open wider.

When the list is clear

If every item holds and the door seals, the fault is in the water supply to the unit or in the ice maker, and that repair is quoted before it begins, with the $89 service call set against the total. Lake Hills and Robinswood are in the same East sector.

Where this sits

The East sector

Established residential streets toward Lake Sammamish, where a remodel can set an integrated column into an opening first drawn for something else.

In their words

Bellevue kitchens, in the owners’ words

  • Ice cream had gone to soup while the cubes below still looked fine, which is apparently a real clue. The evaporator fan blade was cracked at the hub. Replaced from the van, then watched down to zero.

  • A hum you never used to notice had become audible across the kitchen. The compressor mount bushings had perished and the whole assembly was buzzing against the frame.

  • A puddle under the drawer that kept coming back. The drain hose had been kinked behind the cabinet by whoever installed it. Rerouted, and the leak stopped. Four stars because I chased the confirmation myself.
