That only tells me not to buy a fridge with an ice maker in the future, not to do with the broken ice maker in my home now. If it has leaked water to the point that the ice maker is encased in ice, don’t bother fixing it – just replacing it. I suppose that’s because the electrical problems created when the ice melts are just too bad to be able to repair. And the mechanical problems the stresses of freezing and melting can cause. That’s minimal in an appliance made to freeze water. If the ice maker is leaking water, the first thing I’d say to check is the water line . It isn’t loose. I already looked. Check the water line for frozen chunks of ice. That can block the water flow, forcing some water to leak out and freeze in the freezer.
