Every once in a while, I hear noises from the top freezer part. I

an empty tray under the cube maker but nothing appears in it after the
rattling sound.

There is a handle that when raised is supposed to stop the ice maker
function. Even when up, I still hear the sound.

Suggestions?

The sound is definitely not coming from the ice maker, which is on the
left side of the freezer. More from the right wall, but knocking on it
with my knuckles doesn't trigger the sound. The rattling only occurs
when the motor is running.

Even stranger than the rattling is there is no shut off valve on the
copper water line to the ice maker. The line emerges from the baseboard.
On the opposite side is a bedroom. Bizarre! If the line leaked, I'd have
to shut the water to the entire house off as far as I can tell. I've
been here only a month, so I don't know all the in's and out's of the house.
