Intermittent power issues with Sub-zero 695 water dispenser?

maybe ice formed around chute from leaky air seal??? warm area with hair dryer blowing hot air up into chute for 10 minutes. check for water and wipe all off. unplug refg and plug in after 3 minutes to reset electronics


if helpful please rate me. if not please tell me more.

Does this model have a light button? (I know the 685 and the 695 do.) If it does, press and hold the Light button until all the LEDs light up once. This takes about 5 seconds. (Repeating the process will reenable the lock.)

I hope this helps.

You might want to check out this forum. Your water controls on both the ice maker AND the door water are out? Could be a power supply issue or perhaps your unit only uses one water flow solenoid. Either way, head to this website and look for a forum for your unit.

If it is one with the compressor on top . Check the coils up top . You may find that they need cleaning because it sound like it's unable to cool enough to satisfy the thermostat therefore it runs all the time trying to.

There are a couple of possible problems. If you mean load motor noise as in the compressor then you likely have a sealed system problem. Either a bad internal valve is making it noisy and you are loosing presure within the system. You will need a new compressor if this is the problem. A technician could tell you if this is the problem just by checking the internal low side presures. A few things that I would check before calling a technician is 1. Make sure the condenser fan in the upper unit is running. 2. Check to see that the internal fan in the freezer is operating as well. 3. Check to see that the freezer light is going off when you close the door. If all of these things are working I would suggest call a technician.

you have inadvertently activated the button lock- keep children and other hooligans from playing with the buttons. :)

Hold down the light button until the red key is no longer lit.

check voltage to water control valve.

try this... the water valve in your sub. is located in the upper part. ( close to the condenser fan motor. yes the new one.) tell your TECH to test the water dispenser and by pass the ice maker. the leak is on top part . running all the way dow. good luck.............................LEAVE YOUR COMMENT IF IT WAS GOOD FOR YOU.... THANKS

No seal or gasket on the water line... you do have a water valve that maybe sticking open .... and/or the switch in the water dispenser is stayng open...hope it helps let me know..

Sammy, I am having the same problem with my 695. I have a call into subzero service and will let you know what I find out.

Thanks for your help as it fixed my problem as well, albeit temporarily.
