    I have GE side by side refrigerator and model# PSS26MGTC BB. Recently ice dispenser stopped working. It is making ice and Water is dispensing but not dispensing ice.When I pressed Cube ICE button on the dispenser, I don't hear any sound.
    I appreciate any help.

    And also Dispenser board and all connection appear fine. Lights on board work and ice door opens. No hum sound and but water still dispenses.

      Dispenser motor

      .
      There is an electric motor (see the link below) in the area behind the ice bucket that turns the ice bin auger. That motor could be defective, it could not be getting power (for whatever reason) or that motor could just have frozen up. The latter was a common problem on earlier GE models so they came up with a boot (see the link below) to try to prevent it.

      Someone might need to inspect that motor to evaluate its condition. If free moving and not burned out, looking into the switching system may be required.

      Circuit boards do not always show physical signs when defective.
