My GE profile refrigerator's ice maker is frosting over at the exit point for the ice leaving the ice bin. I have cleaned it repeatedly and have no clue as to the cause.

The flap door that opens to let ice drop out of the door has a bad seal or the plastic mounting arm is cracked or broken,this is allowing moisture to enter and turn to frost.This will continue to happen until the flap door is repaired,and sealing correctly.

I have a GE Profile side by side refrigerator. It has not been cooling very well, it stays between 38-41 degrees. also the ice maker doesn't make a lot of ice and the cubes are smaller in size.

Ice maker want work if freezer bus not around 0F. Are fans running? Is condenser coils clean? Is there any frost build up on inside back freezer wall?

Frost forms on the inside opening of the chute for the water/ice dispenser. Also frost on the exit chute from the ice cube tray. The frost is present a day or so after I clean it off.

The door flap which releases the ice , on the door , is not closing completely .Usually this is caused by a rusted plunger so both the solenoid and plunger will have to be replaced , These parts are located behind the dispenser board so be sure to remove the top freezer door hinge cover and unplug the plug there , to remove all power going to the door , before attempting this repair . I think the part number is WR62X10055 for the kit .
When it doesn't close , it lets warm air into the freezer and causes frost on the dispenser AND on the ice bin outlet . Also , using 10 glasses or more , of crushed ice a day can cause this .

Frost building up in ice maker exit shoot and

Look into the dispensor , and see if the door flap is closing , or letting warm air in which will cause the frost buildup . If not closing completely , remove the top cover on the freezer door hinge , and unplug the plug . This will remove power to the door . Use a small screwdriver , and insert under the freezer door dispensor control board , and pry outward . Remove the 3 plugs on the board . Next , remove the 4 screws holding the white dispensor cover , and slide outward . At the top right , you will see a solenoid and plunger , which control the door flap . Usually , this plunger rusts on the solenoid . Replace both , the solenoid and plunger ( come together in kit ) Pt # WR62X10055 . Re-assemble in reverse .

Ice maker will not eject ice cubes in GE Profile gss25tswass

Empty all ice from the bin and from the "Drill" like Ice shaper spinning unit. Let the unit make some new ice and see if that works.
