I'm not what sure to do about it, perhaps disconnect it and look for cracks.
I thought it was loose but didn't consider cracks.....it might be worth it
to remove it and see if it's is cracked and if so, find a replacement (?).
If it's loose on where it is supposed to attach, I imagine it might leak.
How do I get it to stay without leaking?

Thanks and thanks to others who have replied.

The refill water comes up the back of the fridge, and then through a
plastic
tube. That tube may be out of place, or cracked.

I have a GE refrig that has an icemaker. *For some time now I've had

i.e. frozen chunks in the container and ice in the rest of the freezer

My guess is that this is a common problem but I don't know and don't know
what I could do to fix it.

I thought I'd float this by the newsgroup before I called the local
appliance store to get a repair.....$50 to arrive, $65 per hour, etc. etc.

Anyone know of obvious problems I might address before bellying up to a
big
repair bill?

Thanks.

It might be as simple as cutting off an inch or so and reattaching it
to the same spot. It may just be stretched out a bit.

BTW - someone suggested trying to watch the device fill the tray. If
it works the same as my unit, it won't run with the door open. Once
the switch for the light closes to turn on the light, the power to the
ice maker is cut off. You have to push the door switch to fool the
unit into thinking the door is closed. Of course, at that point the
light goes off and you can't see the ice maker. g
