Any idea why this is happening? I believe it started doing it after we put in a kitchen floor and had the freezer thawed out briefly, not sure if there's any easy things I can do to have it drop the ice and continue to make more.

The best solution is to replace the whole ice maker. - The part number for the ice maker is AP3966072 Here are the breakdown diagrams and Replacement parts for FRG GS26HSZCB0 \| AppliancePartsPros.com Gene.

It just seems to stop after making a batch (sometimes 2-3). It just seems to shut off after one batch
