The FGNI515 produces soft, chewable nugget ice rather than the clear ice cubes the FGIM515 makes, which means it uses an auger mechanism to form and extrude ice rather than a freeze plate and harvest cycle. That auger is the part most specific to this machine’s repair profile, distinct from the freeze-plate diagnostics that apply to Viking’s clear-ice models.
