Ice maker not working, water dispenser is fine

The ice maker is not filling with water to make ice, but the water dispenser in the door works fine. I had a problem about 4 months back where the water filled the tray, but did not push the ice out. I repaired it by removing the ice maker and manually removing the ice by melting it. The ice maker has worked ever since, until now. Could I have damaged it somehow by doing this?:confused:
