What ICE, NO WATER and DRAIN flicker in turn
actually means.
The nugget machine keeps a running total of ice-making time. After six months of it, the three lamps flicker twice each in turn, and they keep doing so until the cleaning cycle has been run. The machine keeps working in the meantime.

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.

Before you book,
in this order.
Each step comes from U-Line's own guidance for ICE, NO WATER and DRAIN flicker in turn on its ice machines. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Get U-Line Ice Machine Cleaner; U-Line says other cleaners can damage the machine.
Follow the cleaning steps in the guide, diluting the cleaner as it directs and switching to the cleaning mode.
Once the cycle is done the flickering should end; book a visit if it carries on.
Cleared?
The light or code is gone, and the machine fills, freezes and drops a full batch of cubes into the bin with no new part. If it returns within a week, or the clean light comes back straight after a cleaning cycle, mention that in the booking.
What not to do
The flicker is a reminder, not a problem, and it does not stop ice production. Lamps that blink together, rather than one after another, are sensor or cooling patterns.
