I have tried to defrost the frozen fill tube with a hand held steamer and the ice maker will work for a few cycles but the fill tube will freeze again. I have actually seen droplets of water run down the fill tube after the ice maker had finished dispensing water to the ice tray. I suspect the problem might be a faulty water valve. Please help! Thank you.
