See if the ice maker starts working when it dumps the ice.

If it overfills and drips, look for an adjustment behind the plastic endcover with a +/- on it. - is less water.

pull our your frig. and follow the water line coming into it. the other end should have a valve on it in the floor or the wall. turn off the valve and that will stop any water from coming to your frig for water or ice making.

Check to see if water is in ice cube forming tray. If No then probably a bad water inlet solenoid. Water line to fridge goes to inlet solenoid.

check the water hose. water supply to ice maker
