Default Icemaker Problem with GR2SHTXKT02 Top Mount

Hello - This refrigerator is almost 4 years old. Recently the icemaker has started jamming. Small pieces of ice remain in the ice dispenser several times a day after the ice has been dumped. The icemaker will not refill with water and make more ice because of this, and a "creaking" noise occurs at this point.

Most of the ice cubes also come out hollow.

Once the pieces of ice are scraped off the dispenser, the icemaking cycle will continue. Obviously, this is difficult to monitor.

Any ideas?

Thank you..

Low water pressure is causing it.

This explains about it:
