The icemaker stopped making ice ... It goes through the motions the solenoid that allows water to refill the tray doesn't energize. I measured the voltage at the connector, I was getting 120 volts so I thought the assembly was bad and replaced it. Well the icemaker is still going through the motions and still not filling up with water.

Thanks for any help floating around out there,

Do you get water through the door?

Yes I do get water through the door. I looked at the schematic and decided the problem was in the icemaker itself. As I was removing the icemaker I found the water tube inside the freezer was frozen solid. After replacing the solenoid assembly I took the old one apart. The seats and seal were a little ragged looking. I'm assuming that they leaked just enough for water to slowly dribble into the the tube and freeze. I took the tube out, thawed the ice that was in it and I'm making ice again.

Thanks for the help ...
