🧊 GE refrigerator ice maker not making ice (no water to ice maker)
Step-by-step troubleshooting guide — 5 steps, Fridge.
🔧 Troubleshooting Steps
- Verify the water supply line is connected and the shut-off valve is fully open
✓ Expected: Water flows
- Check the water inlet valve at the back of the refrigerator. Listen for the solenoid clicking when the ice maker calls for water
✓ Expected: Solenoid clicks, water flows
- If no water flows, check the inlet valve for 120V during the fill cycle. No voltage = control board issue
✓ Expected: 120V at valve
- Check the ice maker's water fill cup — it can freeze solid, blocking the fill
✓ Expected: Fill cup not blocked
- If the ice maker has an auger motor: if ice is made but not dispensing, the auger motor or gear train may be seized. Check the drive gear on the auger shaft
✓ Expected: Auger rotates freely
