For my Kenmore Coldspot refrigerator (106.565364),
For my Kenmore Coldspot refrigerator (106.565364), is it absolutely necessary to have that big coiled-up water line in the back? I would just as soon cut out the extra length and connect the ends with a 5/16" coupler.

From what you are stating this is a dispenser refrigerator with 1ce/water through the door. This type refrigerator has a dual sided water inlet valve. It looks like the half that fills the icemaker may be bad or may have the power connector that came loose. This is the part on the back that the house water line connects to. It should 2 wires going to each of the 2 coils (total 4 wires). If wires are connected, I would say 1 coil is bad and the valve needs replaced. Since you already replaced the icemaker that rules that problem out.
Start by taking a look at the lower or back part of your refrigerator. A grille ought to be visible on both parts. There is a strong likelihood the water filter is inside if you observe the grille. Check the upper-right corner of the refrigerator if the grille on the back or lower portion is not visible. https://www.usawaterquality.org/water-filter-on-a-kenmore-coldspot-refrigerator/
yes you need to hook up a line froun the cold water supply of the house to the water valve that is located at the back of the ref to the water valve that is down at the botton right corner
follow the water line from the top going into the icemaker down to the bottom there is where the valve is located behind the back cover
