This is only done on certain models according to the serial number. If you have a model that the jumper should be cut and you don’t the refrigerator will not run, as it should. Look at the installations instructions to see if you need to cut the wire or not. Refrigerator repair guide GE Refrigerator Repair Guide

I'll try it again when I get home and start cutting wires.. :)

Seems like something you did caused these problems. Maybe a wire has come loose, or a connector unplugged.
