Check The Solenoid The water line attaches to solenoid at the back or bottom of refrigerator and then travels to the ice maker. The solenoid may be defective or may not be receiving power. Unplug the refrigerator first. Then you can try removing the sediment screen inside the solenoid flushing it with water to clean it, and at the same time you incept any seal diaphragms to ensure that they are sound.
If your ice maker has frozen up, take the following steps to thaw it out: Unplug the refrigerator or turn off the circuit breaker that supplies power to it. Remove ice bin from the refrigerator or remove any loose ice from the ice maker. Find the fill tube. This is white rubber like hose that delivers water to the ice maker. Pull down the small maker clip off housing that holds the fill tube ( though not all ice maker have this clip).
Warm the hose and surrounding machanism. To do this you can train a hair dryer on ice maker to melt any ice blocking the mechanism. If you don’t wants to use hair dryer, you can sock the supply tubing with hot water, using a turkey baster And catching the overflow in bowl. In some cases it may be easier to remove the ice maker than to thaw out the fill tube with the ice maker in place.
