This problem sounds like a design issue with
the particular unit.

Fixed my ice maker some months ago. I vaguely recall reading about
the ice / water dispensers in doors having a gasket seal at the rear
and the freezer door. If the seal goes bad, cold air from the freezer
causes problems in the dispenser. IIRC


OP can you feel a cold air draft leak adjacent the ice dispenser
front?

OP can put in his model number at:
