valve (GE WR57X10051)on this . The water is working on the door dispenser now. I replaced the ice maker on this with the General Electric WR30X10061 ice maker on this unit which is the current model that is supposed to work on this refrigerator. The ice maker still does not work.The refrigerator a n freezer work fine. I just do not have the ice maker working now on the refrigerator. I am seeking input on this puzzle if someone could tell me what I have not done to make it work just like it used too.
