    Older Crystal Tips Ice Machine problem?

    The Crystal Tips Ice machine I have is 1997 MODEL. It has run perfect until last week, I noticed it seems to run non-stop? It will not stop making ice? Does anyone know what would cause this? Thanks,

    Do you happen to know where the sensor is located and can I repair this or do I need to replace it? Thanks for your help.

    Look at the top of the bin for a torpedo shaped probe.

    There is a tube that runs down the left side othe machine and the ice had almost reached that level, SO I just pushed the ice up next to the tube on the left side and the machine went off. That must be the sensor probe. What do you think? And thanks so much the help and info.

    Sounds right but why did the machine not shut down before ? Could be a intermittent switch. You will have to keep a eye on it.
