GE Ice and Freezer Features
How GE Ice Makers and Freezers Work
The icemaker fills from the rear while its thermostat sits at the front cube, so a slow fill or a freezer colder than about -10°F can eject the rear cubes before they are solid and leave them hollow. Source: GE Appliances - Refrigerator - Hollow, Mushy, or Small Ice Cubes

Freezer and Ice Maker Notes for Spring, TX
Most ice maker calls in Spring come down to the same handful of causes: water supply and pressure, a frozen fill tube, the water inlet valve, freezer temperature and the ice maker assembly itself.
Texas has no separate appliance repair license; under the Plumbing License Law, appliance dealers and their employees may install and service appliances (other than water heaters) without a plumbing license when hooking up to existing openings with a code-approved appliance connector, while other gas or water piping work generally requires a plumbing license. Source: Plumbing License Law, Tex. Occ. Code ch. 1301, §1301.053 (Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners)
In Texas, you can check a license with the Texas plumbing Public License Search or report a problem to the Texas Attorney General, Consumer Protection Division.
