If there is a reset button on your ice maker try pushing it. Many ice makers have two holes for reset. A general rule of thumb is if the ice maker fingers are stopped in a slightly vertical position then your ice maker unit is working. If the fingers are stopped anywhere else then it needs some sort of attention or replaced. Make sure there is water, or ice in the ice maker tray, if not then the problem is with water supply.

SOURCE: water dispenser not working but ice maker does

The water line freezes inside the freezer door. There is now an add-on water line heater you can install to thaw the line.

I would check the door switch that turn the light on for freezer. When the door opens the switch changes to deactivate the controls on the dispenser panel and when shut should turn it back on. I will help you trace the problem because sometimes there is a broken connection from the dispenser panel to control board. Let me know, Sea Breeze

go here and look at part number 810,this is the water tank in the fridge section,get a hair dryer and heat up the tank where the water lines connect to it,also g.e. has problems with the water line in the freezer door the line freezes up.also when was the last time you changed the water filter?try this,open the freezer door and remove the bottom kickplate,on the left side you'll find a connector for the water line,disconnect it shut the door and hit the water dispenser,if water comes out of line where you disconnected it then you know the line in the door is frozen,if no water comes out i would change the filter and it that doesn't work i'd have to say you have a bad water valve.one more thing and this might sound crazy but if i didn't see it myself i wouldn't believe it,when you went to dispense water have you ever noticed that the condenser fan motor would sound like it was slowing down and also the strip in the middle where the doors close together touch it to see if it's hot,i've found three mother boards bad from this,i'd dispense water, and the fans would slow down, i hope i'm not confusing you by telling you this,lets stick with the basic things first disconnect the water line under the freezer door and behind the kickplate,shut the door and hit the dispenser,if water comes out of the hose the water line is frooze in the door,if no water comes out,heat up the water tank with a hair dryer,after a while like 5 to 10 minutes hit the dispenser but water will leak out the tube if the tanks frozen,if that doesn't do the trick i would change the water filter and if that doesn't work bad water valve,if you look down where the kickplate is you should find a tech sheet that will tell you how to jump out the ice maker,now what did you change out the ice maker?you said you changed two parts,what's happening that you changed the ice maker,was it not getting water to it,i mean if you're not getting water through the door and no water to ice maker,you either have a bad water valve or filter,start there and heat up the water tank,if that's frozen you won't get any wateralso look at this it will tell you how to start the harvest cycle on the ice maker,i beleive you shut it off for 20 seconds,turn it back on and move the arm in and out like three times.

GE Side by Side Refrigerator model GSS25jfpa cc. No water to icemaker. Replaced the ice maker and the dual solenoid water valves. Still no water to ice maker? Water to door works fine.

if you can reverse the solenoid valve wire connections,then use the door water fill to activate this valve,but not long as it will overfill the icemaker,this will certify that theres water getting up to the icemaker,then it could be the maker itself not activating the icemakers water valve assy to fill the maker

I have model #TFX25PRYAWW. Ice maker is not filling with water. Water still operates through door dispenser.

NUMBER 800 is your water valve. It has 2 solenoids. One for water and one for ice. I suspect your ice solenoid is on the blink. It could also be dripping slowly like a faucet and clogging like a stalagmite the ice maker fill nozzle. The only other thing in the ice box that controls that water valve is the ice maker itself. if the water valve is ok then the ice maker ain't getting the power to that water valve solenoid.

Ive got a GE profile and my ice maker stopped working. I get water through the door so i took the ice maker line off to see if it was clogged or something. its weird no water comes out the ice maker side...

GE made different versions of the model listed above your post. If the Ice Tray is empty pour tap water into the tray and let it freeze. If it empties on its own, then I would tell you that the water control valve for the ice make is defective. For a few years the ice maker came with an electronic control board behind the front cover on ice maker. To make sure I will need you to look for the correct model number on locations pointed out below in photo. You also are welcome to get answers from me or our sites free. Enter your model number in the search feature and this will pull up the model with pictures and parts. Either way let me know what you find and if I can help you better, Thanks, Sea Breeze

Ice maker and now water dispenser does not work

Do you get water to the connector at the bottom of the freezer door ? if you do then the water pipe in the door is probably frozen - read new door ! if not then check thw electrical connector at the bottom of the freezer door as they have a habit of corroding.

The water switch went bad or the water valve. Switch the two wires on the water valve on the back of the ref. Press water switch on door if water fills ice maker valve is bad,if not,door switch is bad.

Ice maker works but water won't dispense

There is a know defect with the freezer side door. read more at http://www.houstongofarappliancerepair.com/Refrigerator.html

Also, If you call and haggle GE they may send you a new freeezer side door. Or, You may actually try turning fridge off, leaving door open for about 4 hours and then try it again. As strange as this sounds it has worked for some of my customers.... When "air-bubbles" get into that line it can freezer inside the door a small section of water line because the insulation in freezer side door isn;t thick enough... More can be read on this problem at http://www.houstongofarappliancerepair.com/Refrigerator.html

goodluck...
