Hi.

You need to check first the thermal fuse in the icemaker's harness (black wire possibly).
If it's open most likely you should replace the icemaker, because it's overheats.

Next check the door switch.
With the switch closed there should be continuity between C (RD) and NO (V/WH).

Post the results.

If the freezer light is OK, then the switch is the only part between the control board and isemaker fuse.

Hi.

Did you check the switch?
Does the freezer light works?

Your control board is inside the control panel in the refrigerator

Hi.

Have you checked the door switch as I instructed you?
Why are you checking water solenoid if the problem is - no voltage to the icemaker?
