Hello,
I have a Whirlpool fridge/freezer combo (model GS5SHAXNL00) that has an ice maker on the fritz (shocker). It hasn't dropped a single piece of ice since we moved into this place until yesterday when I simply took the unit out and put it back in. I had tested the emitter board first and it responded as expected with a solid red light when the flapper was depressed and a 2-flash pattern when not (except in harvest mode). Since putting it back in however, it has started to produce ice, albeit at a very slow rate. So, I have a couple of questions about this behavior:

- What is the typical rate of one of these ice makers?
- How should I start troubleshooting this if indeed it isn't producing at the expected rate?
