I went away for the weekend and shut the water off in the house. after a few days back the ice maker will not fill up.. I can dispense water in the door and I checked the LED light signal sequence , those check ok . What next ?The refrig is in a cubby hole so to get back in the back requires moving cabinets, etc. I want to check out all possibilities before I go in the back.

Can you move everything out of it, shut it off, let everything thaw overnight? Then start it up again & see if it starts working.

Hi, jszemba.

There is a good chance that icemaker water inlet tube is frozen. You can ether unplug the fridge for 24 hours (keeping the doors open) or use a blowdryer to heat the tube being careful not to melt it. This is all you can do without pulling the fridge out. Please, let us know the result. Good luck!

Simon.
