My Everpure / Shurflo filter went to both the sink and the icemaker. Getting a bypass valve from Amazon I was able to remove the filter and still pass air thru the system. Rather than energizing the solenoid at the source, I was able to find some diagrams of my ice maker (most seem to be the same) and there are little ports with letters.. you have to remove the plastic cover to expose the gears. Making a simple 6 inch piece of wire jumper, sticking into the two ports caused the solenoid to engage and in my case, air and water to spray out of the icemaker.
Looking at the icemaker panel it was two ports on the lower-left side, in kind of a diagonal arrangement. Ports "V" and "L" in this diagram.
Hope this helps!
