Dear Bryne Grammer,

For parts we may have to get numbers off the defective part, photos or I can run it through research for you.
Please recheck your model along with providing the manufacture number staring with the letter P so we can thoroughly research it.

In general to you question first be sure the temperature in the freezer is stable at 12 degrees F or below.
If its not the thermostat in the icemaker wont close and allow power to the valve.
Check all wiring and the plug to the icemaker.
Check the tube where the water comes in to see that its not frozen not allowing water to come into the icemaker cup.
If you have an ohm meter, take the harness off the coil that supplies the water to the icemaker. With the meter set at RX10 it should read between 200-500 ohms of resistance. If it doesnt read between those two it is defective.
The thermostat in the icemaker head can be tested for continuity. It should have continuity at its coldest. ( frozen )
