What Does Monogram Refrigerator Error Code 8 Mean?

Error code 8 on a Monogram refrigerator indicates an ice maker fault. The ice maker assembly has reported an error — this can range from a temperature problem in the ice maker compartment to a mechanical failure in the ice production mechanism.

Common Causes

  • Ice maker turned off – The ice maker arm or control switch is in the off position.
  • Frozen water supply line – The water line feeding the ice maker has frozen inside the freezer door or back panel.
  • Failed ice maker assembly – The ice maker module (motor, thermostat, or mold heater) has failed.
  • Water inlet valve failure – The dual solenoid water inlet valve’s ice maker side has failed, preventing water delivery.
  • Ice maker temperature too warm – The freezer is not cold enough for the ice maker to complete its cycle.

How to Troubleshoot

  1. Verify ice maker is on – Check that the ice maker’s on/off arm is in the down (on) position.
  2. Check freezer temperature – The freezer should be set to 0°F (-18°C) for reliable ice production.
  3. Test water supply – Dispense water through the door dispenser. If no water flows, the inlet valve or water line has an issue.
  4. Reset the ice maker – Press and hold the ice maker test/reset button for 3 seconds.
