Kenmore Ice Maker E4 Error Code — Temperature Sensor Fault

Kenmore Ice Maker

High Severity
Warning: If your Kenmore appliance displays the E4 error code and you are unsure how to proceed, turn off the appliance and contact a qualified technician. Some errors require professional repair to avoid further damage or safety risks.

The E4 error code on a Kenmore ice maker indicates the thermistor responsible for monitoring ice mold temperature has failed. Without accurate temperature data, the ice maker cannot time freeze or harvest cycles correctly.

Causes

  • Failed ice mold thermistor
  • Wiring damage to thermistor connector
  • Frost accumulation over the thermistor disrupting readings

What To Do

  1. Defrost the ice maker area and check if E4 clears on restart.
  2. If E4 returns, the thermistor requires professional replacement.
