Ice makers run themselves almost independently from any other functions in a refrigerator. Your ice maker maybe bad or water supply solenoid valve has probably failed. Check the continuity of the solenoid valve and test it. Once continuity is established, disconnect the supply line to the ice maker and energize the valve with the water line open. Make sure you use a container to catch the water. If water comes out while it is energized, the valve is good and you to focus on the ice maker. Check and make sure and check all wiring before making a hasty decision to replace it. If it is does not make ice, just replace it.
Ice maker stopped making
ice. For this problem you have check few things. First thing, is the water
filling in the ice maker chamber and then ice maker not making ice? Or, the
water is not filling in the ice maker chamber so it's not making ice. If the
water is not filling in the ice maker chamber then it's clear that ice is not
getting made due to no water in the chamber. For no water filling, the problem
is either water supply valve turned off so water is not filling. Turn on the
water supply and it will fill. But if the water supply is turned on then the
other possibility is ice blockage in the water fill tube. There is a tube from
which the water runs and enters the ice maker chamber. If this tube is blocked
then water will not enter the chamber. The tube needs to be defrosted, by using
hair dryer. This procedure melts the ice collected in the tube and
water starts running again. But if water fill tube is completely
clear and no ice blockage or any other blockage. Then other possibility is
water valve at the back of ice maker unit. This water valve is for letting the
water in the ice maker. The water valve open only for 7 seconds and
in this time the water fills in the ice maker chamber and then water
valve closes and the same procedure runs again in the next water
filling cycle.------- In most of the cases the fault is water valve at the back of ice
maker section, on some refrigerators the valve is at the lower section. ------------- The above possibilities which I gave you is
water not filling in ice-maker chamber so it's not making ice. But
now consider that water is filling in ice maker chamber but it's
still not making ice. Then the problem is ice maker unit itself. This unit is
controlled by main board. But in most cases if water is filling the ice maker
but it's not making ice then its faulty ice maker unit. So see if the problem
is water not entering the ice maker then the water fill tube is frosted by ice
or the water valve at the back of ice maker is faulty. Replace the valve.

------------But if ice is getting made in the ice tray,but the ice is not ejecting out then there is blockage to the ice ejecting blade.May be some ice is got stuck below inside.Clear all ice frost collected under the ice chamber.And then see.---------------
