The ice maker makes ice very slow and the cubes are smaller than normal.
For model number GIE21GTHCWW
Hello Bernard,
Thank you for your question We have done an investigation into your model GIE21GTHCWW, we have discovered that the Ice Maker would be the most accurate cause of your symptoms. It is available under part number PS1993870. When the ice maker is producing cubes of a smaller size and it slowing down it's distribution, then that would mean you would have to replace the whole ice maker unit. We hope this helps you.
how does cold air circulate through this model? i can feel air from the two outlets on the tunnel by the light but nothing from the outer two. items freeze on shelves even though the back of the shelves is clear and condensation forms just inside door on top of box. has always iced significantly in back of freezer. humidity in house is ~60%.

Hello Carl, thank you for reaching out. The evaporator fan motor, part number PS11737117, is responsible for the circulation of cold air through the unit. We recommend that you check this part, and replace it if it is damaged to solve the problem in your refrigerator. If you need help placing an order for it, please feel free to give us a call. We look forward to hearing from you!
I first shut off water flow to the fridge. Examination of the package (which was not exact in appearance to the original) demonstrated that the electrical connectors were well-insulated so I arrogantly and successfully proceded without disconnecting the power. My fridge is old enough that the model doesn't appear exactly on anyone's list
... Read more so I wasn't alarmed that it took an extra 10 minutes or so to noodle out how to adapt the slightly different inlet cowling and electrical cord with extension, but the device is pretty simple. Soon I loosened the two mounting screws with a nut driver, used a screwdriver to pry away the plastic snap-in housing over the electrical socket on the fridge inner wall and pulled away the electrical plug. The original water fill tube remained in its cavity, ready for re-use. The new unit's mounting points matched the original screw locations perfectly, as did the fill cowling - which on the replacement icemaker has two possible attachment points. The new unit's electrical connector required an extension pigtail to adapt to my socket, but it was included in the package. The extra cable posed a minor cosmetic issue because it hangs in the collection basket a bit, but that will soon be remedied with a tie wrap. After the water was restored and an anxious wait of a few hours, we had well-formed ice cubes that weren't all stuck together and the stalactites haven't reappeared.
I unplugged the electrical connection. Then I removed the 2 screws holding the icemaker in place. I lifted out the old icemaker unit and put the new one in place. Then put the 2 screws back in and plugged in the new unit.
The icemaker started making ice very soon after turning the unit on.
