Confirm the 111 prefix and bottom-freezer layout before going by this chart. If it comes back, it needs a visit. ### Is iD on my Kenmore Trio the ice maker sensor? No, iD watches the ice room, the compartment where ice is made and stored. The ice maker's own sensor reports as i5. ### What should I tell the technician about iD Lo or iD Hi? Pass on the code and the state of the stored ice, such as softened or clumped cubes. The sensor wiring and its resistance, 1,000 to 40,000 ohms, are then checked. --- **[Read on the site: Kenmore refrigerator showing iD Lo or iD Hi](https://refrigeratorrepair.center/error-codes/kenmore-id-111/)** **[Book a visit with RefrigeratorRepair.center](https://refrigeratorrepair.center/schedule/)**
