What GE Says to Check First
- Ice maker frozen / ice buildup. If cubes jam the ejector rake the cycle can't finish, so clear the ice carefully because the mold may be hot. Source: GE Appliances - Refrigerator - Icemaker Not Producing Ice
- Freezer not freezing. On an upright or chest freezer whose lights work but won't cool, GE says to confirm the control isn't set to OFF before scheduling repair. Source: GE Appliances - Upright & Chest Freezer - Not Working
