    What may have happened is that the water line has either frozen up, or become plugged up.

    Do you live where it is very hot and humid during the summer months?

    Does your fridge model have a water filter? When was the filter cleaned out or replaced last? If the water that is running through the lines is unfiltered, or very hard, the water line could be plugged up with deposits.

      The water is flowing - where?

      Does your fridge have a separate drinking water dispenser?
