Is the ice maker making ice? Normal Sounds

This is normal. Your Ice Maker does make different noises while it is producing ice. Below is a list of some of the noise it makes.

Water running from the evaporator plate to the water pan may make a splashing sound.
When you first start the ice maker, you may hear water running continuously. The ice maker is programmed to run a rinse cycle before it begins to make ice.
If the ice maker is connected to a water supply pressure in excess of 60 psi, you may hear a loud sound during water filling associated with the flow of water through the inlet valve. Call a licensed, qualified plumber to determine the best method to reduce the supply water pressure (50 psi is recommended).
