Did that.

Does the compressor cycle regularly? Too often?
Not very often?


How can I tell? I can hear it running but haven't noticed it cycle.

Cycle the bail on the ice maker to get the thing to release cubes and
refill. This may take a couple of cycles, if it is air locked.


I've had my dances with the ice maker in the past (r&r dozens of times
for maker and water pump) and I *was* wondering about some sort of air
lock (I just changed the water filter when this happened) but I don't
know what you mean by "cycle the bail" exactly. How do I get it to cycle?
