Since you did not supply a model number, I can only give you general information. On average and under ideal conditions, it takes approximately 60 minutes to produce a batch of ice cubes after the previous cubes drop into the bucket(approximately 90 minutes from start to start of the cycle) The ice maker only produces 8 cubes at a time. The freezer product(food) temperature should be 0 degrees(+ or-3 degrees) for ideal ice production and food retention. You may want to check your owners manual for a more indepth explanation and diagnosis for a possible problem, since usage has a great effect on customer expectations.

Sorry, but, There are no broken parts(at this point). As I stated before, in general all ice makers used in refrigerators today take 60 to 90 minutes(60 minutes average), to produce a batch of ice cubes(8 cubes). Some brands and models do have selections or options that can increase ice production to as quick as 40 minutes(average). If you wish to test the production: empty the bin and let the ice maker produce ice for a 10 to 12 hour period. at an average of 8 cubes an hour, you should have 80 to 96 cubes. This is the way the ice maker is designed to operate. If there is a major shortage of cubes, then you may have a freezer temperature thats not cold enough(0 degree farenheit). It may be time to replace the water filter in the refrigerator or on the water supply line,it needs to be replaced at least once a year. Poor air flow due to too much food product in either compartment. Poor water flow from the water supply line to the refrigerator itself,wrong water temperature(Make sure water supply line is from a cold water pipe,not accidentally on the hot supply line). I hope this expanded explanation helps.

Thanks Jimmy, Had difficulty with the model number you supplied. but , You need to start by checking the water filter in the refrigerator, it could be clogged or restricted with sediment, and the water inlet valve, it could have a restriction, or a solenoid has failed and will not allow the water into the icemaker. Good Luck and Thanks, :) :) :)
