Refrigerator ice maker not working — Chicago, Illinois
An ice maker that stops producing ice is one of the most common refrigerator complaints. The cause is usually a frozen fill tube, a faulty water inlet valve, a stuck ejector arm, a failed ice-maker module, or insufficient water pressure from the household supply. An appliance repair technician tests the water supply line, checks the fill-tube heater, inspects the mold thermostat, and replaces the specific part that failed — getting ice production back within a single service call in most cases.
