Water to the icemaker froze in the tube that brings
it into the box.

Turned off water and elec. to box and removed
icemaker to get at frozen tube.

Cleared that problem,replaced the icemaker and
returned the water and elec.

Nothing happens. What do I have to do to get it
making ice again? The "lifting fingers" did move
for a short distance toward the parked position.

Thanks, Charlie A homeowner

Hi criecke,
Are the ejectors(fingers) up , down or ?

If the fingers are not pointing down inside the mold, you can add water to the mold, there is a thermostat inside the icemaker it will make it cycle in most cases or your micro switches inside the i/m is stuck and that is why the extra water has froze up.
