The water line on my fridge was kinked and after I repaired it the ice maker will not get water .The water in door works fine and if I pour water into the ice maker manually it will make ice the one time I can hear the solenoid clicking trying to fill it but it won't fill up .thank you maddiesgramp

The valve is connected to the water line. just follow it from the wall, 5-10 years is perfect timeline for a valve to fail, its not repairable. Very easy to replace

The valve is located in the bottom back right corner. You can purchase it right here from the parts department.
