An ice maker in Olney, Logan & Oak Lane that has slowed down usually has a restricted supply: an overdue filter, a scaled inlet valve or a kinked line behind the refrigerator. In older rowhouses the supply line often runs up from the basement, and a saddle valve there is a common weak point.
Older homes here often have basement laundry with original hookups, which is worth knowing before a repair or replacement goes in.

Refrigerator ice makers
A refrigerator ice maker gets water from a supply line through the refrigerator's inlet valve and usually a filter. The valve opens briefly to fill a tray. Once the tray is cold enough, a heater or a twist mechanism releases the cubes into a bin, and a wire arm or an optical eye shuts off production once the bin fills. In door-mounted designs, cold air is ducted to an ice compartment in the door, and that compartment has its own fan, seal and sometimes heater.
Most refrigerator ice maker problems are water supply problems: a frozen fill tube, a clogged filter, low water pressure, a failed inlet valve or a kinked line behind the fridge. The ice maker module itself fails too, but less often than people think.
Dispenser problems are a separate set. The auger motor that turns the ice in the bin, the door chute flap and its seal, and the dispenser switch can each fail on their own while the ice maker keeps making ice. Ice that clumps into a solid block in the bin often means it has partly melted and refrozen, either from a door that is not sealing, a failing door-compartment fan, or a defrost problem in the freezer.
