It stops with the paddles down in the water, which then freeze into the cubes and it's stuck. I've replaced the ice maker unit twice so there must be a logic circuit somewhere else that's controlling this.
Certainly it must be the control board, have you replaced the entire maker or just components? theres not enough information to go off of but the brain controls the arms so.... I'm not really sure the information you seek.
good luckk

Testimonial: "I agree. There is a small pcb in the ice maker unit and three larger ones on the rear of the fridge. Where is the brain that controls the paddle position?"
You see the issue with that is, Samsung will NOT provide schematics or repair material for its products unless you are registered and approved as an authorized repair person by samsung or you work for a company that has authorization. We here do not have authorization (me personally or the site) tho it may be other experts that have access to that information, tho most people with access to it had to pay so they are not too inclined to share. The next solution will be following the wiring and or try and read pcb to see if it has any indicators, you can also remove or unplug the connection/s to a specific pbc and attempt to use the ice maker to see if that pcb affects the operation. Further more more than 1 pcb could affect the operation of the ice maker depending on its design. its good practice to separate pcb's that have different operational purposes so during the repair process its easier.

More likely s water supply issue. Make sure the line is insulated inside the freezer and not linked or restricted elsewhere. Don’t use s saddle clamp onto a larger pipe...restricts flow.
SOURCE: no water for ice maker
make sure wire is in down position this is like the on and wire up is off
SOURCE: My Samsung RS267LBBP has stopped making cubed ice. It only crushe
try emptying your ice tray out cleaning it real good then try it if doesnt work still may need board or auger motor
SOURCE: Bosch Side by Side, top shelves dont freeze food, bottom does
majority of refrigerators today are equipped with an automatic icemaker. The water valve supplying the icemaker is a key component of the icemaking system, and it should be the first thing you check if the icemaker's performance is erratic or if the icemaker stops working. When the icemaker calls for ice, its switch closes an electrical circuit and energizes the solenoid-operated water valve. This allows water to flow through the valve and into the ice cube tray. The water is frozen into cubes, and the cubes are dumped into the ice bin. As time passes, strange things may happen to the refrigerator's icemaking capability. The cubes may be small or there may be a solid chunk of ice instead of individual cubes. It's also possible that the icemaker will stop working. These are all signs of a malfunctioning water valve. The valve is equipped with a screen on its inlet to remove minerals and sediments in the water supply. Over time, minerals and sediment build up on the screen and restrict flow through the valve, or even block it completely. Minerals that make it through the screen can cause the valve to stick in the open position, overfilling the ice cube tray in the process. This is a common problem in areas with hard water, but it can happen just about anywhere. Another malfunction that will cause the icemaker to stop working is a break in the solenoid coil winding. This is known as an open coil. The coil winding generates a magnetic field as current passes through it, and this magnetic field opens the plunger valve that controls water flow. A break in the coil winding stops current flow and this prevents the valve from operating. Test And Inspect The icemaker's valve is easy to inspect and test. First, gently pull the refrigerator away from the wall, and unplug it. Turn off the water supply to the icemaker by closing the shut-off valve in the copper waterline leading to the valve (Fig. 1). Use a screwdriver or nutdriver to remove the rear lower access panel from the refrigerator's back. Next, remove the fill tubing from the water valve. Use a wrench to loosen the flare nut on the brass fitting on the inlet side of the valve (above). Place a container under the valve to catch the small amount of water that will spill from the valve and tubing. Now use a screwdriver or a nutdriver to remove the screw holding the valve's mounting bracket to the refrigerator cabinet (Fig. 2). Pull the valve out of the compartment and remove the tube on the valve's outlet. Then, remove the solenoid's electrical contacts (Fig. 3).

Check your ice cube tray to see if it is warped. Mine was. I took the tray off and dipped it into boiling water and remoulded it to the original shape and re-installed it. So far no problems. The tray gets warped because of the ice cube release mechanism. The tray is rotated around until it meets a block on one corner which creates the twisting motion we used to do on manual trays. Over time it tends to warp the tray. Good luck
