Hopefully I can get some feedback on this one. I am getting no water coming from the dispenser, but it is making ice. I replaced the filter, since it wasn't replaced in a long while. I followed what was on Ge's support page - which was to depress the dispenser for @2 mins and should free up any air. This didn't do anything, so after building up the pressure, I released it by removing the filter again and re-installing. There was a pressure build-up which wasn't going any further than the filter.
I also tried reducing the refrigerator temp, but no change.
I have heard the possibility of it being likely its a frozen water resevoir (behind the meat drawer) but can't figure an easy way to get to it. If this is what you think the cause is, can someone tell me an easy, non-destructive way to take away all that plastic? Once I get to the tank, what do I do next?
Thanks much for any help.

Any suggestions?

Never mind all - I did the blow dryer trick into the dispenser on low heat for about 10 mins and fixed my problem! Thanks very much.
