Ice maker line on 2000 Southwind????

Okay I have a 2000 Southwind 36Z, the one with the Kitchen sink in the slide out. Under the sink is a water-filter there is a 1/4" line tee between the fauset and filter. I assume the line split off is for the ice maker. I can`t tell where the line goes, to get accross to the fridge on the other side of the M/H. Is it coiled up in a wall?? Wouldn`t they have run this all the way to the fridge at the factory?? I`m the 3rd owner so I`m not sure if there was a problem. Would they go outside under that doesn`t make sense to put it out in the weather?
Any help would be appreciated!!!!

Thanks everyone! I bypassed the line and tested with a temp line and it turns out the valve is leaking, so that is probably why it was disconnected! Still can`t find original line but it could very well be coiled up beside the refer!!!

I have a 2001 Dolphin 33 footer. Bought it new. The fridge had an ice-maker in it. We thought....good idea.
Before the second camping trip, I removed it. Wife said it took up too muchy room in the freezer...and it didn't make ice cubes any faster than, say an ice tray.
The water line valve under the sink...turn it off. Remove the ice maker, but keep all the connections (in the freezer) wrapped up and out of the way then disconnect the wires to the ice maker valve in the back of the fridge... whatever water is in the house will evaporate...maybe the next owner would want it.
Ice trays (2?) take up far less room...and if you have company, spring for a cooler and a couple bags of ice at the campground store.

We had a 1999 Soutwind 36Z with galley slide and our ice maker stopped making ice. Our repair person found the tubing in back of the refrigerator where the vent is, was coroded, he replaced the little hose there and it was fixed. I don't know if this is your problem, but that is how our problem was resolved.
My advice is worth what you paid for it!

Might not be abe to help much but what I had:
2001 Mountain Aire with a Dometic Refer with ice maker. The ice maker quit I took it to the shop. They had to replace the "feeder line" then the ice maker went, so I had to replace it. The heater coil quit only fix was a new icemakr, $350.00 later I have lots of ice. The tech said the waterline has check valves in some and they will go bad. Good Luck. To fix you will have to pull the refer out to get at the back.
