KitchenAid KUID308HPS00 freestanding icemaker Parts

For KitchenAid model KUID308HPS00 (a freestanding ice maker), the most reliable “reset” is a power reset: turn the unit OFF, disconnect power for about 5 minutes, then restore power and turn it back ON. This restarts the control and normal ice-making cycle (including Max Ice behavior).

Follow these steps from the KUID308HPS00 owner’s manual and KUID308HPS00 installation guide workflow (OFF, power disconnect, then restart):

• Push the selector switch to OFF.
• Unplug the ice maker (or disconnect power at the breaker).
• Wait about 5 minutes.
• Restore power.
• Turn the selector switch back ON.
• Allow time for the unit to resume cycling and producing ice.

These checks address the most common “won’t run after reset” causes for this KitchenAid freestanding ice maker:

• Confirm it is plugged into a grounded 3-prong outlet.
• Verify the control is turned ON (not in OFF).
• Check the home circuit breaker or fuse.
• Make sure room temperature is above 45°F (7°C).
• If water is sitting in the bin on drain-pump models, check the drain hose for kinks or pinches.

A power reset clears a “stuck” control state and forces the ice maker to reinitialize its operating cycle. If the underlying issue is power, temperature, water supply, or drainage, the reset will not fix it until that condition is corrected.

If your KitchenAid freestanding ice maker KUID308HPS00 runs but makes no ice, the most common causes are the control being off, the water supply being off or restricted, or a drain issue that empties the water pan. Start with power, control settings, and water supply checks from the KUID308HPS00 owner’s manual.

• Confirm the unit is plugged into a grounded 3-prong outlet.
• Make sure the control is turned ON.
• Verify the water supply line is connected and the shutoff valve is fully open.
• Check for a kinked or pinched water line behind the cabinet.
• If your model uses a drain pump, make sure the drain hose is not kinked or pinched.

The KUID308HPS00 needs the right water conditions and room temperature to produce ice consistently.

If the control is on and water is available, focus on water movement and draining.

• Tighten the drain cap if it is loose.
• Clean the drain tube and confirm the drain line is not kinked.
• If water is not circulating over the evaporator plate, a failed recirculating pump can stop ice formation; see the pump, recirculating (includes sensor) W11542867.
• If the unit is not filling with water at all, a failed inlet valve can be the cause; see the valve W10897719.

Ice makers depend on a steady fill, proper recirculation, and correct draining. A small restriction (kinked line, loose drain cap, blocked drain tube) can prevent the water pan from holding water long enough to freeze, resulting in no ice.

For the KitchenAid freestanding ice maker model KUID308HPS00, the model number is located on the inside of the ice maker. Open the door and look on the interior wall for the model and serial tag; match it exactly when ordering parts or checking documentation in the owner's manual.

• Open the ice maker door fully
• Check the inside wall of the cabinet (not the exterior panel)
• Look for a rating label with Model and Serial fields
• Wipe dust or condensation off the label so the characters are readable
• Write the model number exactly as shown (including any zeros)

KitchenAid ice maker parts can look similar across model families, but wiring, control boards, and water system components can differ. Using the exact model number helps us match the correct diagrams and parts for your specific ice maker.
