    Freezer is not freezing and icemaker not making ice! HELP!!

    Model Number: RFG297 AAWP
    Brand: Samsung
    Age: 1-5 years

    I need help as soon as possible please! So around a month ago my icemaker was making a clicking noise every time it was making ice. I never did anything because it was still making ice as usual. Then last week the clicking noise stopped but then the ice maker would only produce new ice very inconsistently, until a few days ago and now no ice is being made. I also noticed around the same time the "clicking" stopped my freezer was not as cold as it should be, popsicles wouldn't even freeze....are my problems related? When I check the temp on the display it says the freezer is at -8 (no way), and my fridge at 34 degrees Fahrenheit. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated....

    Can you please check the freezer temperature with a thermometer to see what it is? If the freezer isn't getting cold enough the ice maker will stop making ice. The other problem with the clicking noise coming from the ice maker is probably a separate unrelated issue. Usually the clicking noise is caused by the ice making going bad.

    This is the ice maker for your model refrigerator:
