Then you have to replace the water filter of the refrigerator. It is having some blockage that is why water is not flowing in it.
Filters situated in the interior liner of the refrigerator compartment of samsung-built side-by-side refrigerators are relatively simple to replace. Follow these steps:

  1. Remove the old filter by grasping it and slowly making a one quarter turn to the left.
  2. Pull down gently on the filter to remove it from the mounting bracket assembly. Be careful to not tip the filter, as water may spill out of it.
  3. Discard used filter.
  4. Remove the new filter from its packaging. Apply the appropriate month sticker to the filter to remind yourself to change it again in six months' time.
  5. Fill the filter with water from the tap, and then line the arrow on the filter up with the arrow on the cartridge holder inside your refrigerator.
  6. The filter automatically pulls itself into position as you turn the filter to the right and lock it in place. Be careful to not over tighten the filter into position.
  7. Run water through your dispenser for about three minutes to clear the system. Keep in mind that a newly installed water filter could initially cause water to spurt from the dispenser.
Water by Culligan filter cartridges need to have a water filter adapter installed. This is a one time installment, and once you have this adapter installed, it stays in the refrigerator for all future filter replacements. If your refrigerator already has this adapter in place, do not remove it to replace the filter.
Smart Water filter cartridges do not require the use of the water filter adapter. If for some reason your refrigerator has an adapter in place already, you will have to remove it before installing a Smart Water filter cartridge. The adapter is removed in the same manner as the filter itself: with a gentle quarter turn to the left.
Note: Replacing this type of filter is a quick process - there is no need to unplug your refrigerator when replacing it. Also, this filter should be replaced every six months.
Hope this was helpful to you. Thank you for using fixya.

How to change fuel lines

saws use a flow thru carburetor design , fuel is drawn out of tank and excess unused fuel is returned to tank thru other line , the clear primer bulb starts this "flow thru " process and engine vacuum (running ) continues it

when replacing lines many folks forget what line went thru what hole (change them one at a time ) this requires a little detective work to figure out what hose thru what hole goes , with a little fuel in tank tilt saw front to back , see what hose always gets the end covered up with liquid level , this line always goes to farthest hole in tank back and that hose goes to fitting nearest the primer bulb ,, due to process of elimination there's only one other possible place for the other line

Every time the water starts to flow into the ice maker, the water pressure causes the line to disconnect. how can i keep my water line from disconnecting from the ice maker?

Buy a new one you have not connected it right. It's about $10.00 for the kit Just DON'T disconnect the valve leading into your pipe you already have or you will a non stop flow of water. Just replace the clear tubing. Turn of (flush) your water supply first then do the new tubing.

Why is ice continuing to form at the bottom of our GE frig?

these units have a defrost drain that gets plugged.
you need to remove the ice from the freezer section and try to use a "turkey baster" to force water into the drain hole. it may be frozen and need to run hot water to get water to flow thru the drain.
sometimes you have to remove the drain from the back underside of the unit to clear the line. try the hot water inside first and if you cant clear the drain, then go to the back and remove the restriction from the drain line.
