I do not understand your question. What exactly is the problem?

I have an icemaker problem also. I have an Admiral HMG 24902 side by side refrigerator freezer (about 18 years old, unfortunately...) and have misplaced the manual for it. I have replaced the valve that connects the icemaker to the water supply due to a leak, and ever since I replaced it we are having a problem with the water in the tray spilling over into the bin and causing all the ice to stick together. This also creates a layer of ice in the bottom of the bin that will not allow the ice maker to dispense.

I finally figured out today that this is happening because when the water is dispensed into the tray, the tray is still tilted about minus fifteen degrees from completely level, so some of the water is spilling over the edge. I see two buttons on the back wall of the icemaker that the spindle the icetray sits on. I have tried pressing both of them, but don't see anything happening that I can tell. one is at the bottom center just below the icetray spindle, and the other is up and to the right of that. I don't know what they do, either of them, but I assume they are some kind of reset button?
