How do I get my ice maker to start making ice again?

Getting a stalled residential refrigerator automatic ice maker to start producing ice again requires resolving common power, water supply, or mechanical blockages. First, check that the wire bail arm is lowered into the active position and not stuck upward. Second, inspect the water supply fill tube above the ice mold to ensure a frozen ice plug has not blocked incoming water, clearing it with warm water if necessary. Third, check that the household water supply shutoff valve behind the fridge is open fully. Fourth, perform a hard power reset by unplugging the refrigerator for ten minutes. You can troubleshoot water flow easily. You can verify that your corrective action is successful when clearing fill tube ice, lowering the bail arm, or resetting power allows the ice maker to cycle, fill with water, and harvest new ice cubes.
