What a KitchenAid Technician Deals With
Refrigerator ice makers come in several styles, switched by a wire shutoff arm (which a full bin lifts to the off position), an on/off switch on the ice maker or the freezer door wall, or the control panel menu on digital models.

The units run a defrost cycle with a defrost heater, and meltwater flows to a drain pan, which explains sizzling or gurgling sounds. Source: KitchenAid Product Help - Refrigerator Normal Sounds and Noises
