Error code P1
Appliance Ice Maker
Quick answer

P1 means pump circuit open. It covers clear ice machines, nugget and outdoor models, and older CLR2160 and CLRCO2175 units with a P60 pump.

Model compatibility: U-Line reuses codes across series and model years, so P1 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

Pump circuit open, with a drain pump or drain line problem on models that use one.

P1 means the pump circuit is open. What it points to depends on the machine, so find your series below.

UHCP115, UACP115 and URCC115 clear ice machines

The manual lists P1 as pump circuit open, and only for a unit that has a drain pump.

UHNB315 nugget and UOCP115 outdoor clear ice machines

On these two, P1 also produces a service notice in the app. The notice points to a restricted drain line or a failed drain pump.

Older CLR2160 and CLRCO2175 with a P60 pump

This is a legacy series. The manual says P1 detects a drain problem and advises consulting a plumber. When no P60 pump is installed, the jumper wire may be missing, so check that it is in place.
