A couple years ago when we returned from CA to TV our ice maker wouldn't work. I checked inside the freezer and behind to refrig - couldn't figure it out. Called GE appliance service, the guy came out looked it over, pulled the refrig out from the wall, turned the valve on the ice maker water back on (it is a plastic push/pull valve, gave me a bill for $175.
My brother from Chicago used the place for a week when we were gone and had turned the valve off and didn't tell us. Those push/pull valves are a piece of cr** you can never tell what position they are in - open or closed.
Sooo - to turn off the ice maker water, pull the refrig away from the wall and turn off the valve on the back side of the refrig - it's on a 3/8" clear plastic line going up the back of the refrig.
