does anyone know why an ice machine will stop working overnight - you gather i am not in the business - have cleaned out the water supply pipe - limescale and dirt - did not work - then pushed a small valve near the bottom and a lot of air came out - still did not work - thank you for any advice -

Apart from breaking the law you most definitely now need the services of a refrigeration technician.
