Hoshizaki ice maker cam and spring repair in Oakland
Problem: This Hoshizaki IM-200BAC ice maker in Oakland couldn’t get through its normal ice-making sequence. The water tank and plate mechanism would rise, drop with a loud noise, then try again. The machine kept repeating that movement instead of getting on with making ice.
Diagnostics: The cam mechanism and its spring needed attention. They are part of the mechanism that moves the water tank and plate. This was the area we worked on to correct the movement.
Solution: We cleaned the cam mechanism and replaced the spring, then checked the movement. A separate error showed up afterward and needs its own check.
Result: For an ice maker that gets stuck during a cycle, describe the movement and the sound when you arrange service. Say whether the noise happens once or repeats, and whether the machine keeps trying to move the same part. Those details help the technician understand the complaint before opening the machine. Here, the cam and spring repair fixed the mechanical dropping problem that brought us to the machine.
