Refrigerator moved for painting now ice maker not working

Hello! We are having problems with our ice maker. We have a Kenmore and the intake valve was replaced six months ago. It had been working well. Painters moved it and it seems that that may have been when it stopped working (I THINK). We checked to make sure the water was
turned on, the ice maker was turned on, and the copper pipeline shows no kinks or twists. Any suggestions as to what it could be? Thanks in advance.

If it was disconnected for moving it could just take a while until the air is out of the supply tube and it fills with water. Other than this you could take the supply line off the refrigerator and check for water flow, -perhaps you have an in line filter that is clogged. Why would it happen at the same time it was moved though? Sometimes ironic coincidences happen.
