The Dover list starts with companies that name GE, followed by other appliance repair companies that work on ice makers and freezers.

What Makes GE Ice Maker Repairs Different

Common leak points GE lists for the ice maker are loose water line fittings, a leaking water valve, a leaking fill tube extension and a clogged defrost drain. Source: GE Appliances - Why is my ice maker leaking and dripping water?
