Appliance Refrigerator
Quick answer

i5 Lo / i5 Hi: ice maker temperature sensor failure on Kenmore Trio bottom-freezer refrigerators with 111-prefix model numbers.

Model compatibility

Kenmore reuses codes across series and model years, so i5 Lo/Hi may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.

Plain language

What this code means

Ice maker temperature sensor failure (low or high reading).

i5 Lo and i5 Hi at a glance

  • Applies to: Kenmore bottom-freezer Trio refrigerators, model numbers starting 111
  • Meaning: ice maker temperature sensor failure, low or high
  • Part listed: ice maker

How the manual handles it

Disconnect the refrigerator from power first. Look at the wiring that links the ice maker temperature sensor to the control board, and repair broken wires. When the wiring turns out to be fine, the manual calls for a new ice maker, since the sensor is built into it and cannot be bought alone.

Other sensor failures to compare

See iD Lo/Hi (ice room sensor), FD Lo/Hi (freezer defrost sensor) and F3 (freezer defrost heater failure).
