re: Ice Maker in freezer issue

I've had an off and on issue with my Whirlpool side by side making ice, or I should say, not making ice.

I took the icemaker out and gave it a thorough cleaning since it looked like the tray the water sits in had some mineral deposits. It is making ice like brand new now. I think the scale from the deposits were not allowing the ice to break free and get unloaded for some reason.

Or, maybe I just got lucky for the time being. Oh, and I do have a water filter on the thing that is changed when needed.
