Take a small container like a mustard bottle with squirt end and put white vinegar in it and put some in ice tray. It's probably got build up in the tray. Good luck.

Look for a wire "arm" above the bin that can be raised and lowered.
On mine, having it in the raised position tells the icemaker to "stop." Others may operate differently.
For a quick test, just put it in the opposite position that it's in now, to see if you get ice.
I hope this helps.

Is the ice release lever in the on or off position? I once was having the same problem and it was simply because the lever wasn't in the release on mode ;-)
I can see that there is ice made in the freezer but it will not drop. Is there a sensor that signals that the bucket is low? I have removed everything from the top shelf, so there is no interference from food. What can I check short of calling a repair man? I hadn't been having any problems before it just stopped.
There is usually an arm attached to the ice maker that raises as the ice fill the bucket below. If this arm is in the raised position, it will not make or dump additional ice. Some ice makers heat a little so they can release the ice to dump. This heating element may be burnt out.
