Hello
Why would an ice cube maker suddenly start making only three or four cubes instead of keeping the cube box full?
Thank you
Pete :)

Sound like you dont get the water flow to fill them up. Is what Id check first.

How would I trouble shoot that water flow; Any things that come to mind why it would happen so I could look for the culprit?

Can be lots of things here they are all different. Can try the water valve that fills them .It can be bad . It has a screen in it dirt in it. Lime and calcium build up in the lines and pipe that feed the water to it. lots of ifs ifs ifs with them

I think it will be good to check the line and filter, then make it colder to see if that helps increase the time it takes to make the cubes-I'll let you know when I do..
