Any beeping? beeping says what problem it is having.
Reset it while energyzed by pushing the button way back of the control board in the control panel section.
The switch needs to be set to run and valve to normal position, full ice bin sensor may be stuck to full position, exercise the sensor flap.
Post what you tried to remedy the situation for better help ideas. Trouble shooting instruction are included on the machine cover doors.

Check float valve sounds as though it is stuck or not operating.

SOURCE: i have a hoshizaki km 255bah compressor start then quits

Is the compressor overheating when this happens? Feel the top of the compressor when this is happening and tell me if the top of the compressor becomes extremely hot to the point that you cannot keep your hand on the compressor. Reason I ask you to do this is that it is possible that the compressor is short cycling because of a defective start relay and/or run capacitor. Let me know if the compressor is overheating of simply turning itself off. I will post a service manual if interested but would like to e-mail you the service manual for your Hoshizaki KM-255BAH because of copyright issues. You may contact me HERE if you like. Thanks Sea Breeze

I worked on a hoshizaki km-500mae when i turn it on the first cycle it makes good ice but after the first cycle it makes little pieces. why?

time the cycle. if it is only running about 5 minutes and going into harvest, look for sump loosing water. Look at where the unit drains (like a floor drain) while the unit is running to see how much, if any water is draining. does not take much to make an early harvest. also, sump may not be filling up completely but with just enough water to satisfy the float.

Hoshizaki km-650 mah keep dumping water nothing at all running.

really sounds like the board needs replacing. after 1 minute, if the float is doing it's job, the compressor is to come on provided the water level is correct and the float is doing what it was designed to do.

Water leaking onto ice and outside panel on Hoshizaki KM-500MAE

Remove the cover where the persons finger is and check to make sure that it is not covered with ice. Sounds like your machine iced oup and you will need to clean the coils and possibly replace the thermostat

Km 500 kae hoshizaki 3 beeps every 4 second compressor not coming on

put an amp probe on common wire at compressor and see what amps are when it tries to start. 40 to 60 is mechancially locked up compressor. kill power and test start and run capacitors. there is an thermal temp over load on the compressor that opens when comp gets hot from trying to start. gently remove and look for cracks or burned looking. . i saw one this week doing exact same and i have ordered the oem compressor start cap realy and run cap and drier and will put in all new gas. be sure to allow sufficient time when switched to ice for it to get to ref cycle, it may take 5 minutes starting with water purge, then fill, etc. good luck, call hoshizaki dist they are usually pretty helpful if you need a auth service rep in you area. i think they are three years warrantied!
