Default Icemaker door flap stuck open
Brand: General Electric
Model Number: GSS25SGM BS #25
Age: 5 - 10 years

The flap to the icemaker leading to the outside dispensor stays open causing the freezer to defrost. Is there a spring missing that would make it close after you dispense ice?

You probably have a blown solenoid in back of fountain cover. Go to partselect.com for part breakdown.
