7TS22AQXEW00 Estate Refrigerator - Instructions

I watched the video a few times and pretty much did as it said to do. Took about 20 minutes start to finish. It seems to be working 100%.

I found the part I needed at parts select and followed the video on their web site. They have a very informative web site, it made my job easy. I highly recommend this company.

The replacement ice maker did the trick. Perfect fit for old one. It took about 20 minutes to complete the repair. Directions were clear and easy to follow. It did take about 6 hours for the ice maker to make ice. within 48 hrs the bin was full.

Using a pair of pliers position the nose perpendicular to the inner wall of the ref and grip tight on the flat part of the support stud and twist counterclockwise until it become loose. Once loosened pull the support stud outward until it clears the the hole. Installation: Slide the support stud in and twist it hand tight. Using a vise grip and locking the jaw just tight enough to hold it firm on the flat parallel edges twist them (one at time) clockwise until it feels tight the tongues are parallel to to be able to slide the shelf support.

Top left mounted Icemaker facing front. Disconnect power to fridge. Using 1/4" nut driver remove single silver nut under right rear side. It holds a plastic cover over the electrical connection, unhook the cover and remove it. Release clips under front lip under both sides and entire icemaker will slip and twist out. Remove electrical connection to ice tray. Place assembly on bench and remove 3- 1/4 hex screws from under side to release bottom tray. Snap cover off motor and remove. Carefully align pin and arm on control assembly to ice tray and-re assemble. May take 30 min to dispense. Discard till clear.

I took ice bin apart to ensure what part I needed. Got Serial # & Model # from inside fridge. Online search for Whirlpool Parts to check out prices. Settled on PartSelect for best price. Quick service too!!! Before putting it all back together, I reviewed the video. It was pretty good. Just left it up & after each couple of steps, I'd look at what was next. Went together with no problem. There could have been more details given, like ensuring that certain things lined up during reassembly. There was dead time when the narrator could have given pointers.

I removed the 3 screws but also removed the front screw of the left bin rail. This gave more room to maneuver I/M into position. The cover shown with the enclosed instructions does not show an Ice Plus (blower assy.). By removing the two mounting clips fron old unit and snapping on new one blower unit fits as original. Overall a very simple and quick repair. Note: None of the cables Inclosed were used as my harness does not unplug from wall. Thanks for the quick service PartsSelect.

I shut the unit off for about ten hours and when I turned it back on and set the temperatures for the freezer and refrigerator it has been working great.I will keep the part in case it happens again.

watched the installation video twice and took my time to make sure all parts were put back together in the right order

Moved fridge out from wall, unplugged power cord. Laid on floor, removed 6 screws from cover. Removed one threaded bolt to allow assembly to slide out. Removed special nut, and took fan off. Removed 3 motor mounting bolts. Unscrewed 2 wire nuts, and untwisted wires. (option 1, no ground) Vacuumed entire area around motor. Used 3 bolts to mount motor to holder assembly, and special nut to install fan. Stripped wires back about 3/4 inch. Twisted two wires together CW, and installed new wire nuts. Slid motor assembly back into slot,(keep wires away from blades) and used one threaded bolt to secure assembly. Reinstalled cover plate with 6 screws. Plugged power cord in to test air flow (out through cover vents). Moved fridge back into place. The loud whirring noise did not stop for a day; then quiet!

Turned off circuit breaker. That turns off both power and water. No need to move refrigerator. I backed out the 2 top screws about a quarter inch and then removed bottom screw with a quarter inch nut driver. I then lifted Ice Maker clear of the two top screws and lowered it enough to unclip the power connection. The new Ice Maker was wired correctly for my refrigerator so all I had to do was reconnect the power connection and mount new Ice Maker on the two top screws and install the bottom screw. It took about two hours for the new Ice Maker to start it's cycle but after it did, it worked GREAT. Part Select service was OUTSTANDING, ordered part one day and received it in two days and I live in a very remote location. Recommend PartSelect to everyone.

The part fit perfectly. All I had to do was slide it in. Very speedy delivery and I am very satisfied with the service and would recommend your wedsite to anyone. Marie

I followed the video on the web site. Easy squeezy.

Should have. . . . Just taken the ice maker out in the first place . . . . When I saw no ice I assumed the timer was bad. . . Replaced it. . Then when that didn't fix it again assumed that water valve was bad. . . . Replace that also to no avail. . . . Finally took out the ice maker and saw that the heater had stopped working cuz there was still ice stuck in it. . Replaced ice maker. . . All good. . . The water valve I replaced was a good thing cuz you can definatley tell the difference. . . . Anyway. . . Fixed!

replaced cam, new one broke after opening door 3 times...
