Pull the cover on the ice maker back off and in the center of the gear there should be 3 prongs, if not then your module needs replaced.

not to sound dumb, but are we on the same model? with the cover off i see the white gear with red letters that say do not rotate by hand. but the only thing in the center is what looks like the two little squeeze tabs that hold the gear to the module. ???

yes, there should be three tabs in the grear. If there are only two that's why your icemaker isn't working. You can replace the module they are around $90 or the whole icemaker is about $100.
