GE Profile Refrigerator Model PFE29PSDASS Serial VZ520355 is not sending water to the icemaker. The icemaker is operating since I can watch the arm assembly rotate around like it would push cubes out of the tray but it is not filling with water after that cycle. The fridge has water available and water comes out of the water dispenser on the door normally.

Update - After the arm assembly rotates through the ice tray, a solenoid within the door can be heard but no water is making it to the icemaker. There isn't an ice dam or blockage that can been see from within the icemaker.

Removed the lower interior panel to expose the water multi-valve for the icemaker and the door water dispenser. Removed the line going to the icemaker and installed a temporary line into a small water bottle. Listened for the icemaker to cycle a few times and water could be heard flowing. The water bottle had plenty of water in it to make ice. Next, used a syringe to try to push water up the line to the icemaker but nothing would flow through the line. Turned off the icemaker and taped over the cold air ducts leading to the icemaker section on the door and left it over night with a rag over the end of the icemaker water line. The next morning, the rag was wet. Used the syringe again and was able to push water through the line leading to the icemaker. So, it seems the line was frozen somewhere between the water multi-valve in the door and the icemaker. Put everything back together, removed the tape, turned the icemaker back on and the icemaker has been working perfectly over the last two weeks.

I don't recall seeing a technical bulletin or known issue for this problem?
