Yes... opening the freezer door will stop the ice maker.

The ice maker timer is supposed to run one cycle and stop. If the timer doesn't stop it will continue to make clicking sounds. Usually when that happens it won't make ice.

There really is no repairing the ice maker. It can be replaced. It just hangs on the sidewall and plugs in. Post the complete model number for the fridge.
