Starting Ice Maker?

Anyone have a trick for getting the ice maker started? I've had the fridge running for about a week with water in tank but only about 7 really really tiny cubes have come out. Maybe air in the line? Is there a place to turn the water on/off for the ice maker? Overflow lever is down so I would think it should be producing ice...

Help!

I would think there would be shutoff in the manifold wet bay. Will be picking up a 430RB in 2 weeks, then I'll know where it is. My Georgetown had a push/pull valve in the top of a storage bay right under the fridge.
Good luck.

Hand some of the Berkshires, it is under the sink in the half bath. Not sure what model Charleston you have but maybe its at the same place.

2012 Bunkhouse. Can't find any valve in the bathroom or in the access panel behind the fridge. I would expect it to be in the bay as well, but there's nothing marked ice or freezer.

Found the valve under the bathroom sink...unfortunately I had to punch out a panel that was stapled from the inside, and no way to replace the panel.

Also unfortunately, that wasn't the problem. We've had two service people come on site to "fix" it and still no working.

On my Berkshire the water cutoff is in the wet bay but it's out of sight behind the water filter.

Do the manufacturers do this to aggravate their customers or to see how smart they are to find this stuff out for themselves. Do we get extra credit if we find it on our own? We are having the same problem. We think we found it but the push pull valves is difficult to reach.
