I found a broken gear in the motor module, so I ordered a new one and replaced it approx 3 weeks ago. Everything worked fine for about 10 days, but then the ice tray was overfilled and frozen up so ice production stopped again. I took the icemaker out, cleared the ice tray and reset everything. When I re-installed, it produced one or two trays of ice and now it is overfilled and frozen up again. What could be causing this ... do I need to replace the motor module again?
