Ice Maker Assembly
This updated assembly features improved structural sealing and revised timing logic to prevent the 'ice bridging' and frost-over common in original units. The mechanical failure occurs when moisture enters the ice room, freezes the tray in place, and prevents the thermistor from accurately sensing temperature, leading to a total cooling failure in the compartment.

Evaporator Drain Clip (Heat Probe)
The original drain clip is too short to effectively transfer heat from the defrost heater into the drain port. This causes the port to freeze, leading to condensate backup that eventually encapsulates the evaporator coil in ice, preventing heat exchange and causing the 'not cooling' symptom in the refrigerator cabin.

Food Grade RTV Sealant
Used to seal the gaps between the ice room cabinet and the refrigerator liner. Air infiltration through these seams is the primary driver of latent heat gain; sealing these gaps prevents the moisture ingress that causes the evaporator and ice room components to freeze up.
