I've moved the on/off lever up and down and made certain the ice tray is OK. The drinking water is located on the inside left wall of the refrigerator and like I mentioned, the water comes out of there fine. The ice maker isn't filling even though I can hear the motor running like it did when it was working fine. Thank you
You can pop the cover off of the ice maker,on the module you'll see some letters,if you get a jumper wire and stick it into the T and H the ice maker should start to spin,if it doesn't the ice maker is bad,then remove the wire and stick it into the V and L,water should start to fill the ice maker,if it doesn't most likely you have a bad water valve,just get a piece of wire,strip off both ends to make a jumper wire.one more thing,check the fill cup and the fill line to see if there's any ice in there,if the water valve is bad water can drip through and freeze in the cup or fill line stopping the water from entering the ice maker,if there is melt it out with a hair dryer,also if you have to get in there with a hair dryer be careful with the heat on any plastic parts,you can damage it and don't heat the fuse on the ice maker wires,it's a black fuse built into the harness you can damage it if it gets to hot.you can go here to see your parts

Remove the white cover in front of the ice maker by pulling straight toward you. There is a white gear made of plastic that might broke off, you probably have to replace motor module assembly. My Roper ice maker quit making ice and found the problem, I'm shopping for cheaper part replacement which is being secured by 3 screws.

Apparently lowering the temperature by 5 degrees in the freezer compartment will keep the input water tube from freezing. It is working fine now!
I need you to double check the model number. Maytag has a service library at this link. http://www.servicematters.com/maytag_library/html/index.html
By placing the first 3 letters in the search feature it will take you to models like yours. Chose the correct model that you have and enter the number in the search. I believe that the water control valve on back of your refrigerator is the problem. Maytag is very good about helping their customers. Let me know if you have problems gettting the information you need, Thanks, Sea Breeze
SOURCE: Ice Maker Overfills With Water
Ice maker has adjustment on right side of power head. If ice maker is inside on upper left, you can remove white cover from it and the adjusting screw in on right. Turning counter-clockwise will decrease fill by 1/2 to 3/4 of ounce. Sounds like a small amount, but ice make only uses 4 ounces per fill. If this does not fix, try replacing fill valve. If ice maker ice bin is in the freezer door, you have to remove cover to ice maker in the top of freezer. Ice maker is screwed into top of freezer and need to be removed to take off cover to adjuster screw. same procedure for reducing water flow time as above.

You have a bad dispensor flap solenoid . Frost due to flap not closing completely and ice will catch in the shoot .
