What to do when ICE, NO WATER and DRAIN flicker in turn shows on the ice machineKind of codeMode, not a failure
Nothing is broken; the control is reporting a state someone chose or a routine it runs: a clean or sanitize reminder counting the hours since the last cycle, a delay of a few minutes after power returns before the pump and compressor start, a bin-full light while the bin control is satisfied, or a standby or off mode someone chose at the keypad. No part is needed; finishing the cycle the light asks for, waiting out the delay or the key sequence from the manual ends it.

What not to do
A sequence of flickers is the reminder; lamps blinking together mean a sensor or cooling signal. It is not an alarm, and the machine does not stop.
