Remove ice maker from refrigerator,remove damaged part,replace with new one.

The helpful Partselect video showed a slightly different model, as my icemaker uses optics instead of a bail for shutting off the icemaker. I ordered new optics based on a a customer description that, if the light on the right hand side of the freezer door jamb was blinking 2 flashes followed by a pause,it indicated that the optics were faulty, so I ordered and replaced them. This did not solve my problem. Then on-line I found further information that said I should close the flapper on the left side, and if the light was steady (which it was) the optics were OK. I then ordered the motor unit. I unscrewed the single screw under the right hand side of the track with a 1/4" nut driver, but found that sliding out the ice maker involved a little wiggling and prying, and, because it was awkward to disconnect the electrical connection, I found that it was not necessary to disconnect it. Then, after removing the end cap, it was a straight forward process to replace the motor, while adjusting the shaft to line up. Then,reverse all procedures and I now have ice. Success!

We followed the video which was a great help. The only difficulty we had is the black rubber tube (water fill tube) was hard to get into the new ice maker. But finally got it. The new icemaker works wonderful! No more buying ice!

I researched my problem online and watched a video of a ice maker installation before I attempted my repair. I ordered the part at 11am Thursday morning and the part arrived at 10am Friday morning via Fed Express. First, I removed the bracket the was holding the ice maker in place. Second, I slide the ice maker out. Then I disconnected the old ice maker. Next I used a screwdriver to remover 3 screws for the plastic housing, since it was need for the new ice maker. I plug it in and put the bracket back in place. I went out for a couple of hours. I returned home and ran to the freezer.I open it and I found ice cubes. I was finally able to throw out my ice cube trays. Boy I hate them!!! Don't fear this repair it's simple and very cheap. I saved roughly $160.00 by doing it myself. I will use this company again since they were great

used the video on your web site. also read the overview made things really simple

I followed the instructions on the information sheet provided as well as watching a demo video on YouTube. Actual replacement of the emitter and receiver boards took only 5 minutes, but I was not sure it was working till I could here the ice maker harvesting the cubes. Still wanted to be sure so I kept an eye on it for a few hours. Each time I looked in there was more ice. I am so glad I found your website. Parts were about $106. Labor would have cost that much and the repair guy I talked to on the phone said he would probably have to replace the whole unit.

Used the trouble shooting off of YouTube and after finding that the heater was not at the right resistance, ordered a new ice-maker and installed. Very simple and a lot cheaper than going through Sears.

Watch the video was very helpful. I'm just a women and I did it all by myself. Thanks for the help of the video.

I went on line and found your web sight. There was a list of the parts by number and I clicked on the rilght one. It brought up a video for repairing it myself. It was so simple. I just followed your instructions and within an hour I had ice. It makes so much ice I'm going to have to give it away. No really its great.

I read the other replies and decided to replace the boards. It worked!!!! Ice right away!!! I would have only needed to chafe that if I didn't muscle the ice maker arms around in frustration and brek it!!! This website is great!! Parts came fast and accurate !!!! Thanks parts select !!! Another satisfied customer!!!

Water was not filling the ice tray and the ice tray coating was comming off. After the service repairman wanted to charge me over 500.00 for just replacing the ice maker, it told him to take a hike. I bought the icemaker and the electronic controls, which controls when and how much water goes into the tray for less than 250.00 and it took me less than 15 minutes to replace.

I had ordered some other parts for something entirely different off your website and service was great. So after almost ten years of a dark refrigerator, because of a defective switch, I decided to see if you had the part to fix it... You did and the part got here in 3 days. I had a working light switch and all the light in the world where my husband needed it most (in the fridge). It took me at the most ten minutes to replace the part. All is well now and I have a happy husband who can find the leftovers just fine. Thanks for your great service!

Remove ice storage container from inside freezer. Remove philips screw from the coupler underneath ice storage container. Removed coupler and flat washer. Installed new plastic coupling and metal flat washers. Relaced original coupler and screw. Tighten screws very carefully. Installed ice storage container and filled it with fresh ice. Ice is now coming out when the level on the outside of the freezer door is pressed. Yeah...

Ordered a new Ice Maker and replaced old one. The installation was a breeze except for the water recepticle on the right side of the Ice Maker. It was taller than the original and difficul to move the rubber water line into the new recepticle. Other than that. Problem solved. Been working great ever since.
