Subsequent fill cycle fills the empty half and remaining water (which should go into second half of tray still filled with ice) overflows into ice tray. After a bit the ice tray is a solid block of ice. Do I toss the ice maker or is there a fix?

Your model number is missing a few digits. I think the replacement ice maker is a more reliable design. Probably this part. AEQ57518210

It makes the cubes stick. The one I showed you is a more durable replacement IM. But if you want to replace just the tray, there might be replacement ones available. Not sure if this will fit. You might want to ask the guys that sell the parts. LG 3390JA1150A Tray,ice - AppliancePartsPros.com LG AEQ72909603 Ice Maker Assembly,kit - AppliancePartsPros.com
