These posts were helpful. When I reinspected the arm. I realized that in the back of the ice Maker where the metal rod and search, there is a plastic Actuator that works like And up-and-down door I simply pulled that lever down and reinserted the ice Maker and it worked properly.

Turns out the metal arm sticking out of the back needed to be above the solenoid arm. I reached under the bucket when pushing it in and manually pulled the white solenoid arm down to ensure the metal arm pushed in above it.
Problem solved only took 15 seconds. HTH
Thanks for these videos and parts! The wifie is getting mad at me because I keep fixing her old appliances and she's not getting new ones. :D Thank you for this! It fixed this issue for me

Ewan007: turns out this was our problem as well. We tried to fix it. We now only get ice cubes. I believe we broke it when we were pushing it down with a long metal skewer and pushing the ice back in. Our model is from 2020. It’s ok. We’d rather have cubed than crushed anyway
