Default refrig ice maker quit working

We had some work done on our kitchen and the refrigerator ice maker
was disconnected for a few weeks. The refrigerator was still working
otherwise. Now, after hooking the water back up, it isn't making ice.
There is definitely water going to the tube, but no water in the ice
tray.

I've tried blowing on the tube to see if I could unclog it, but I
couldn't.


Could you blow into it, or were you prevented from exhaling?

I checked all of the buttons and settings - they are OK. I also
checked the cutoff arm.

I have an air compressor that I was going to use on the tube, but it
has a connection for tires only, so it won't fit the tube.


Wrap tape around it and then your hand.


Any suggestions on how to fix it?
