When your Asko refrigerator displays the ER5 error code, it indicates a malfunction in the ice maker system. This error is associated with issues affecting the operation and ice production of the refrigerator’s ice maker. While resolving this error may require professional assistance, here are some DIY solutions you can try to troubleshoot the problem:

1. Check for Ice Obstructions:

   • Inspect the ice maker for any visible obstructions, such as ice cubes that may be stuck or blocking the mechanism.
   • Clear any ice buildup and ensure that the ice maker’s components can move freely.

2. Verify Water Supply:

   • Ensure that the refrigerator is properly connected to the water supply.
   • Check for kinks or blockages in the water line that may be affecting water flow to the ice maker.

3. Temperature Settings:

   • Confirm that the refrigerator is set to the recommended temperature for ice production.
   • Adjust the temperature settings if necessary, as extreme temperatures can impact ice maker performance.

4. Reset the Ice Maker:

   • Locate the reset button on the ice maker, usually located on the front or side.
   • Press and hold the reset button for about 10 seconds to initiate a manual reset.

5. Inspect for Faulty Components:

   • Examine the ice maker components, such as the motor and gears, for any signs of damage or wear.
   • Replace any visibly damaged parts if you have the expertise to do so.

6. Power Cycle the Refrigerator:
