What a GE Technician Deals With
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
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
- Opal nugget ice maker low or no ice. A blocked ice chute can give a false full-bin signal, so clean the Opal per the manual and make sure the bin is fully inserted. Source: GE Appliances - Opal Ice Maker - Troubleshooting
