Repairing a Kenmore Ice Maker?

I have a Kenmore top mount refrigerator, model number 253.7481240k purchased in 2009. I replaced the copper hose that had a kink in it, now the ice maker will not come on at all. What could be the problem?

Have you recently replaced the filter? Mine has a reset button on the control panel that I have to sometimes reset. Also, on many of the Kenmore the ice maker shuts off if the freezer gets to warm. Use a thermometer and make sure your freezer temp is 10 or below. Some models will let it be as warm as 15 degrees c. If it is warmer than that, change the temp setting.

Check the freezer temperature. It should be between 0 and 5 degrees F. It won't come on if it's higher.
