I have been quite busy this past week or so and one of the tasks was to finally re-connect the ice maker.

I took it for servicing back in December because it wasn't pumping any water to the freezing section. Turns out, my little, two-tube secondary softener rig under the island sink was completely stopped up and of course, the reason the ice maker wasn't getting water.

But, I had just changed the resin cartridges in it the day before so I never even considered that IT could be the reason for no water. Normally, that would be a major league "DUH" but in this case, I cut myself some slack although..it cost us five hundred bones to be told nothing was wrong with the machine!

Anyway, after sitting in this tiny space for over an hour re-connecting water and power, the machine was still not pumping water but now I knew the machine was not the problem. So, I started back track checking at each of the connections between the sink supply and the ice maker until I found the stopped up second softener.
