David, The arm will not move until the ice maker cycles. There is a reset button on the bottom of the motor you can press and hold until it starts to cycle. You could have a temp issue if it is not cycling.

Hello Roy, sounds like the ice maker's internal motor/gearing is faulty, the ice maker replacement is part 5989JA1005D however the manufacturer has discontinued the part and is no longer available.

Lansing, unfortunately, the model number provided is not registering as a valid model. If the model and serial numbers could be verified and provided in a new inquiry, this may allow for the most accurate information to be presented.

Michael, This ice maker has a drop-down arm on it that should sense when the ice is full. If it is not then the icemaker would need to be replaced.

Sometimes all the ice from the dispenser doesn't make it through the dispenser door and will sit there and melt and you can get a little water out the door at times...I would check it closely to see if it is overfilling and or cycling before frozen, this, in either case, would be the ice maker.

Elwood, you may want to inspect the ice bin to find if there is an ice cube that is not allowing the chute guide to close properly as this can cause the arm to not set properly and prevent the arm from entering the solenoid block. Also, you may want to inspect to ensure that the auger arms are lined up to the auger seat at the back of the bin as this can prevent the bin from setting back properly. If the bin does not sit all the way back, the auger will not engage the bin and cause ice to push forward when activated.
