icemaker creates a sheet of ice then it drops ice onto wire grid. the ice sheet sits there and melts away. is there a sensor in place that causes the wire grid to warm up and cuts the sheet into smaller cube sections? it looks like there is a couple of wires attached to the grid. what are some probable causes for the grid not cutting the sheet of ice?

no sensors on the wire grid its always heated up, power coming from transformer, so went ice sheets falls on top of it should melt it into cubes right away. Calcium buildup on the wire grid acts like a resistor reducings heat on the wire so ice melts slower, or bad transformer.
