tell me what its doing I routinely fix mine. let me know I will save you money. no charge! OKAY here goes.....Take the icecube tray out. Then get you a phillips (star) screwdriver turn off the fridge. Take the screws out of the icemaker that hold it onto the freezer wall ther should be 2. Then take the plastic back shield in the back that covers the fan off. you will then see a tube about 1/2 inch that feeds the water to the icemaker. look in there to see if there is ice build up use a flashlight to check. I usually put a chopstick in the tube to see if the ice is far down.
Take your hair dryer and and let it blow on the tube on low heat for approx 1/2 hour. check with the chopstick and youcan usually break up the ice. let me know when you get to this point, I will be here. close the door on your freezer with your hair dryer in there make sure it is not sitting on any water or that any water or ice can get on it. I prop it up with a towel. Let's finish this tomorrow...I will walk you through it step by step...its really easy and cheap it just takes some of your time you my IM me any time tomorrow afternoon and I will answer NEW: AFTER YOU GET THE ICE OUT YOU REPLACE ALL THE PARTS YOU TOOK OFF..INCLUDING THE ICE TRAY (THE ONE THAT HOLDS THE ICE CUBES. THEN YOU POUR 3/4 WATER IN THE MAKER TO PRIME THE WORKS. YOU SHOULD HEAR THE MAKER DROP THE NEW CUBES IN ABOUT 1/2 HOUR THEN THE MAKER SHOULD "CALL" FOR WATER....CHECK TO MAKE SURE THE BAR IS DOWN AND WATER IS FILLING IN THE CUBE MAKER...IF IT IS NOT THEN THERE IS STILL ICE IN THE FILLING TUBE...START OVER AGAIN... BUT IF YOU DEFROST THE TUBE RIGHT THE FIRST TIME YOU SHOULD BE OKAY.....GOOD LUCK LET ME KNOW HOW IT WORKS.

i does not do away with the nonworking icemaker as this would go away holes for condensation to get into. only go away it disconnected and cap off the supply hose carry a thermometer to the keep and confirm the freezer and refrigerator can actual get all the way down to suitable temperatures, a minimum of 0F and 40F. do not positioned the thermometer the place the air comes into the container as that air will continuously be chillier.

The store where you bought the refrigerator. Ask if the
installer does the repairs or what is the procedure to replace it.
