Vibration In Ice Maker

My model # is PFSS6PKXCSS. The serial number is SS901620. GE side by side refrigerator. The ice make has started making a vibrating/rattling noise. It is functioning fine. When I take the ice tray out and press up on the bar that is over the ice tray, the noise stops. Any idea what the problem could be. Thank you.

A rattle or vibration noise will be heard if the ice-maker is on but water is not supplied to it. The mechanism inside of the valve rattles against the walls when there is no back pressure from the water. This is normal when no water is supplied to the valve. It is recommended that when the unit is not hooked up to water that the ice maker is turned off.

Thanks
