I have 2 questions

1. We had a water leak and it appears that the cause was that the water feeder tube to the ice tray froze up. Why would that happen??

2. I am attempt to replace all of the parts for this issue and i am having some difficulty. The water feeder tube is pretty standard with the exception that one end should be constructed with a fitting/Rib/lip to allow a plastic nut to connect the tube the water source. I believe the part number is: AP4125845. Problem is that I ordered this 2x from Maytag and the tube does not have a fitting. I believe the model number for the corresponding nut is: AP3084160. Does anybody have any idea what part number I need or where I can get a similar tube with a fitting for the nut?

The water inlet valve on the back of the unit where the water supply comes in can have a slow leak and will cause ice to buildup and block the fill tube. Disconnect the ice maker line from the valve and watch to see if it has a slow drip. It doesn’t take much to eventually block the fill tube.
The valve can leak because of sediment in the water preventing it from closing or low water pressure.
