Answer

Joel, it would be recommended that the ice maker W11577195 is inspected to identify if there is water in the tray. If there is, then the air temperature is not low enough for the ice maker to make ice. The fan motor W10846539 in the ice maker section needs to operate to be able to circulate the cold air to get the ice maker section lower than 10°F. Another item that would need to be checked is the fill tube to identify if the fill tube is frozen if water does not reach the ice maker. A frozen fill tube would indicate a failure in the heater WPW10554299 and the water valve WPW10341329.
