I turned off the refrigerator and used a hair dryer around the water dispenser both on the inside and outside of the machine for about 5 minutes. Inserting the wire now and then eventually breaks up the ice. The ultimate fix would be installing the heater kit to cure the problem though.

Saddle tap valve wasn't a problem. Water lines in the fridge were not freezing. I ordered a water inlet valve but that did not fix the problem. I diagnosed the problem to be the Filter Assembly and Tube (part # WR17X11618). Replaced it and that fixed my issue. Apparently the older Filter Assemblies can get gunked up pretty easily. Hope this helps someone! I have GE fridge model GSS25KGSACC. Saddle tap valve wasn’t a problem. Water lines in the fridge were not freezing.
