Even though there is no water connected, you will probably have to turn the ice maker unit to OFF so it stops trying to harvest... If you are never going to use it, simply remove it by taking out the one 1/4" nut screw on the bottom and the two screws above the unit, then unclip the wire harness. It will give you more room and cease the endless clicking... Amana Ice Maker Assembly D7824706Q

It is probably just your water inlet solenoid being activated. Not to be concerned.

SOURCE: clciking noise

I was having the same problem.

I read on fixya that there is a reliability issue with many models.

I called GE customer service. They sent a repair guy who swapped out the motherboard at no charge even though it was out of warranty.

Works great now.

2 of my neighbors' friges went out in the summer here in Las Vegas. They both lost all their food.

He said I was lucky because after the clicking noise begins, the motherboard usually crashes the next day. Mine clicked for a month.

I have an Amanda double Door refrigerator with an ice & water dispenser. The ice machine unit's dose not dispense ice cubes,

If the unit is making ice and the water will work from the door but the does not dispense, you will need to replace the "auger motor". Here is the part to order.

Periodic loud buzzing noise

Two main possibilities:
1.) If the refrigerator has an ice maker but you are not making ice, the solenoid valve will open every hour or so to allow water to fill the ice maker. That valve wears out and makes more noise as it ages. There is a metal rod/bar that can be lifted up to stop the ice maker from cycling.
-or-
The compressor and the associated starter cap may be failing and it can make odd noises when it starts back up after the defrost cycle. Time for a professional to take a look.

No water to the ice maker

Check that the pipe that fills the ice maker is not iced up. Also check that the solenoid on the back (where the waterline hooks up) is making a humming noise when the ice maker calls for water.

The ice maker is working alone, and makes a noise.

does it have a lever that you can lift up and turn it off since you are not using it to make ice.this will eliminate the noise which is trying to add water but you don't have the water line hooked up to it or your water solonoid is not letting water feed yhe ice maker tray. good luck,hope this works.

In door water and ice cube not working

Water dispenser is a simple touch switch in door energizing a solenoid water valve behind ventilation grate above refrigerator. Water tube runs down into and ends at ice dispenser chute. Should hear solenoid click at top of fridge when activate water touch switch. Can unhook discharge side of solenoid valve temporarily to prove water output. If water dispenser tube acts blocked it could be frozen where it ends-look up the hole at the bottom of refrigerator control buttons.
Ice maker is totally different system. No clicking when push ice button but ice in bulk tray may mean the simplest of malfunctions: Ice bin not pushed in the last half inch if ice auger not lined up with drive pegs. There are hidden switches behind ice bin that need to be engaged or nothing will happen in the ice maker: no auger noise, no clicking, no new ice making. Ice bin will be flush with sheet metal if it is in the right spot. Also plastic juice rack won't hang properly if ice bin not pushed in all the way.
