It looks like your model doesn't have an internal filter. Not all of them do, and if you want to filter the water you add an external unit fixed to the wall. https://www.google.com/search?q=Hotpoint+CSX24GR+replace+filter There is a number of models that start CSX24 this is the 24X and says it is an optional extra. https://www.manualslib.com/manual/690660/Hotpoint-Csx24x.html?page=12&term=Water+Filter&selected=1#manual ..

Does the problem move with the drawer when you shuffled them or did it do the same thing in the same position? If it moved it's the drawer causing the issue, if it stayed in the same place it's the freezer itself. Empty the offending drawer and have a good look at it. A lot of front panels on freezer drawers are a 'push on' fit so check the front is clipped on correctly on both sides. Next check the runner rails and back panel of the area that drawer goes into. It might be something as simple as a lump of ice or something stuck to the side/back or a something in the drawer above or below blocking it.

Yes, you can disconnect the ice maker on a Hotpoint CTX21GA refrigerator. Here are the general steps to follow:

1. Unplug the refrigerator from the electrical outlet or turn off the power at the circuit breaker.
2. Locate the water supply line that runs from the back of the refrigerator to the ice maker. It is typically a flexible plastic or copper tube.
3. Find the valve where the water supply line connects to the refrigerator. It may be located behind a panel or cover.
4. Turn off the water supply to the refrigerator by closing the valve. You may need to turn it clockwise to shut it off.
5. Disconnect the water supply line from the valve by loosening the compression nut or other connector.
6. Locate the ice maker inside the freezer compartment. It is usually mounted on the back wall or ceiling.
7. Unplug the ice maker's electrical connector by pulling it out of the socket.
8. Remove any screws or mounting brackets that hold the ice maker in place and gently pull it out of the freezer compartment.
9. If you wish to permanently remove the ice maker, you can disconnect the wiring harness and remove the mounting bracket.
10. If you plan to reconnect the ice maker in the future, you can leave the wiring harness connected and store the ice maker in a safe place.
11. Reconnect the water supply line to the valve and turn the water supply back on.
12. Plug the refrigerator back in or turn the power back on at the circuit breaker.

possible low on freon

This is normally caused by a badly sealing door gasket. It pulls in moist warm air and deposits it near the evaporator. Your manual says it has auto-defrost, so if it is icing up, it means that the defrost timer, or the defrost heater is faulty.

Something to think about from the manual for your freezer. Also I would check the temperature of your freezer with a thermometer to make sure it is freezing ok .Troubleshooting If the appliance does not work, before calling for Assistance (see Assistance), check for a solution from the following list.

Check the quality of the food products and dispose if necessary. + buzzer = Heating is excessive c) The alarm sounds and the two yellow indicator lights as well as the green one flash. c) The temperature in the freezer has reached a dangerous level. The food must be disposed immediately. + buzzer = Heating danger b/c) In both these cases the freezer will maintain a temperature of about 0°C so that the food does not re-freeze. To turn off the acoustic signal open and close the refrigerator door. To restore normal operation bring the FREEZER OPERATION knob setting to (off) and turn the appliance on again.
