Scotsman 500 cm3 ice machine

The bin full light stays on after taking the ice out of it. Then the bin full light stays on and won't let it kick back in to freezing mode.

    For the past couple of weeks, our Machine is dripping water constantly from the ice dispenser side. When I get a cup of ice, the first glass has at least 1/4 cup of water with the ice, but then the second cup right after seems to be fine. Not sure what's going on.

WHY scotsman iec machine shuts down on the refridgeration light ON CM3 CONT

Is the machine producing ice thick enough to come off the evaporator plate? the machine will try to harvest 3 times before it locks out on long harvest. Harvest cycle: The compressor and hot gas valve are both powered during the harvest cycle. The fan and pump are off at this time. The machine stays in the harvest cycle until the evaporator thermistor senses 52 DEG F. If the bin is not full, the unit goes into another freeze cycle. I would check the Thermistor

CME456AS-1C BIN FULL LIGHT ON BIN EMPTY MACHINE RUNS FOR 1 MIN THEN STOPS

clean the ice sensor on either side of the ice platen and just past the water trough. gently pry the sensor on each side out of their plug and work wiring out until you can get to the two led lights and clean scale off. limestone scale builds up and blocks the sensors.

Problem with Scottsman Ice machine. Not sure of model, but about a 600lb. Refrigeration light is on (steady glow, not flashing), not making ice. Air filters on either side have been replaced with new...

wave your hand infront of bin eyes if the bin full light doesnt blink the machine is not reading the ice fall during harvest and will cause it to kick out. basically it thinks its not making ice.

Ice machine will not work. bin full light will not go out! Please help!

there are lens on the bin that shoot a beam across if there is ice it stops the beam and tells it's full. It can also become covered with calcuim and also tells the bin it is full. I would clean these lens gently with a cacium remover. they make products for this. its like an acid that clean off the calcium without damaging your lens.

On our Scotsman cm3 the ice bin full light will not turn off and the machine continues to run even when ice is pushing out the door. What's is the most likely cause off this?

These units have a real problem with the bin controls. I can't begin to tell you how bad. There are two - for lack of a better term - paddles - that are basically just pushed into the left and right side of the drop area that have small lenses in them with a low level beam that when broken indicates a full bin. You have to reach in from under the bin opening and feel to the left and right, pull the paddles toward the middle and there should be enough slack on the wires to get a good hold of them and clean the lenses with a Q-tip soaked in grapefruit juice. Pop them back in and try them - if that doesn't work (and sorry but most of the time it doesn't) then they will have to be replaced.

Where are the bin full sensors located for cme306as-1c bin full light on will not make ice.

It is a set of eyes located in the very back right and left hand side where the ice drops into the bin. Take some ice machine cleaner and wipe down the eyes. You should be able to pull the holders out to get to them better.
