Sometimes, a simple switch can make all the difference. Here&#8217;s what you need to do:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Fully remove the ice bucket.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Locate the small power button on the right side of the ice maker.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ensure that the power button is ON. An LED should light up, indicating that your ice maker has power.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, confirm that the ice maker is getting power by checking for LED indicators or messages on the control panel. If you don&#8217;t see any <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Light-emitting_diode\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">LED light<\/a> or hear any sound of water filling the ice tray, it may be an issue with power supply or the ice maker itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Temperature_Check\"><\/span>Temperature Check&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The temperature of your freezer plays a significant role in the performance of your ice maker. If the temperature is too high, your ice maker may not produce ice efficiently. Follow these steps to check and adjust the temperature:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Open the refrigerator door and locate the control panel.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Look for the temperature controls for the freezer.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Check the current temperature setting for the freezer; it should be between 0 and 5 degrees Fahrenheit (-18 to -15 degrees Celsius).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Adjust the temperature controls if necessary and wait for the temperature to stabilize.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Water_Supply_Inspection\"><\/span>Water Supply Inspection&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>An adequate water supply is crucial for your ice maker to function correctly. If there are issues with the water supply, your ice maker may not produce ice or do so at a slower rate. Follow these steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Check the incoming water supply line to the refrigerator for kinks or blockages.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ensure the water pressure at your holding tank is above 20 PSI.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Inspect the water line for any kinks or obstructions.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Check the water filter for clogs and replace it if necessary.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If the water dispenser is still not working, use a multimeter to test the water inlet valve for continuity.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Check_Water_Inlet_Valve\"><\/span>Check Water Inlet Valve<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The water inlet valve regulates the flow of water from your home supply to your refrigerator&#8217;s ice maker. If it&#8217;s defective, it can disrupt ice production. Here&#8217;s how to check it:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Confirm that the incoming water supply line is free from kinks and fully open.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Test the valve coils for continuity using a multimeter.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If there&#8217;s no continuity, the valve is electrically failed and should be replaced.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If there is continuity, the valve may still be mechanically failed, which you can test using a water inlet valve test.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Checking_the_Ice_Maker_Switch\"><\/span>Checking the Ice Maker Switch&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometimes, the ice maker switch can accidentally be turned off. Ensure it&#8217;s in the right position with these steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Open the freezer compartment and locate the ice maker.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Look for the on\/off switch, which might be hidden behind the ice bucket.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Turn on the switch if it&#8217;s off and wait for several hours for the ice maker to start producing ice.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Inspecting_the_Ice_Maker_Assembly\"><\/span>Inspecting the Ice Maker Assembly&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If all else fails, and your water supply and switch are in good working order, the issue might be with the ice maker assembly itself. This could require professional assistance as some parts are not sold separately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Maintaining_the_Water_Filter\"><\/span>Maintaining the Water Filter<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bosch-home.com\/us\/productslist\/refrigerators\/fridge-freezers\/freestanding-fridge-freezers-with-freezer-at-bottom\/B36CT80SNS#\/Togglebox=accessories\/Togglebox=manuals\/Togglebox=accessoriesOthers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bosch B36CT80SNS refrigerator<\/a> has a water filter, here&#8217;s how to remove and replace it:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Open the refrigerator door and locate the water filter panel.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pull the panel towards you to unlock it.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Open the door to reveal the water filter.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Rotate the old water filter counterclockwise to remove it.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Discard the old water filter.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Clean the filter housing if necessary.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Remove the protective cap from the new water filter.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Insert the new water filter into the filter housing.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Rotate the new water filter clockwise to lock it into place.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Close the water filter door and ensure it&#8217;s securely latched.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>After replacing the water filter, run the water dispenser until 3 gallons have been dispensed to purge air from the lines and condition the new water filter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Other_Bosch_B36CT80SNS_Ice_Maker_Issues\"><\/span>Other Bosch B36CT80SNS Ice Maker Issues<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are experiencing issues with the ice maker in your Bosch B36CT80SNS refrigerator, here are some common problems and potential solutions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Ice_maker_light_flashing\"><\/span>Ice maker light flashing&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If the ice maker <a href=\"https:\/\/7xhouse.com\/igloo-ice-maker-all-lights-flashing\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"598\">light is flashing<\/a>, it could indicate that the water reservoir is empty and needs to be refilled.

Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that may damage the surfaces.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Clean the door seals: Wipe the door seals with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or debris. Ensure that the seals are clean and free from any obstructions to maintain a proper seal.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Clean the exterior: Use a soft cloth or sponge with mild detergent and warm water to clean the exterior surfaces of the refrigerator. Dry the surfaces thoroughly to prevent water spots or streaks.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Clean the condenser coils: The condenser coils are usually located at the back or bottom of the refrigerator. Use a vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment or a coil cleaning brush to remove dust and debris from the coils. This helps to maintain proper cooling efficiency.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion\"><\/span>Conclusion<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In conclusion, the Bosch B36CT80SNS refrigerator ice maker not working can be a frustrating issue for users.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From a faulty water valve to a hidden On\/Off switch, there are various factors that can contribute to this problem.
