What E06
actually means.
The dispenser uses a temperature sensor to watch for overheating. When that sensor reads open or shorted, the board cannot trust it and stops with E06.

What to do when E06 shows on the ice machineKind of codeSensors and bin control
A sensor is telling the board something that is not true: a bin control that reads full on an empty bin, or empty while ice spills over the top, a curtain switch stuck open, a temperature sensor out of range, or an eye on a dispenser that no longer sees the cup. Scale and slime on a probe or an ultrasonic sensor cause much of it. Clearing ice piled against the bin control is a safe first step; testing and replacing a sensor is a technician's.
Usually leads toIce machine bin control repair
The thermostat bulb, paddle, curtain switch or electronic eye that senses a full bin, adjusted or replaced so the machine stops and restarts on time.

An ice machine error code may show as a number on a small display, a pattern of blinking lights on the control board, a colored light on the front, or a machine that stops with one indicator flashing.

What not to do
E06 is not the compressor actually overheating; that is E02, with the Ice button blinking once a second instead of twice. It is also not the bin full sensor, E11.

A booking with a code goes further when it carries the light or code copied as it appeared, the model and serial off the data plate, and a word on whether cubes still fall into the bin. With those three in hand, our office can match the probable part to your machine the same afternoon.
