Water does not come into the water tray for the ice maker, but does come out of the water dispenser. All of function work. Any help?

Make sure the water feeding tube into the ice maker is not frozen or blocked. Locate the water inlet valve on the back of the refrigerator (#6 on the diagram) and swap the wires on the dispenser and ice maker solenoids.

Depress the water dispenser lever for a few seconds and then check if there is water in the ice maker.

If there is no water then replace the water inlet valve.

If there is water then the ice maker itself is the culprit.

- The ice maker Part number: AP4360346
