Jollystomper, this describes exactly the symptoms our 18 year old built-in GE Monogram side-by-side had last year. Service tech found 18 years worth of dust build-up around the condenser coils, and as a result, very high operating temps. The resulting fluctuating temps in both the freezer compartment and refrigerator had caused the ice maker to clog, and the refrigerated water tank in the back of the refrigerator to freeze and then crack. A good clean out of the condenser coils fixed the underlying problem, and we replaced the damaged water tank. The ice maker problem was solved too.
We had a similar problem with our old fridge as well. Youtube vids on troubleshooting and fixing the issues were indispensable.
