CSB2121ARQ Magic Chef Refrigerator - Instructions

Pulled the fridge out, Took bottom panel off. Removed 3 screws holding motor. Unplugged connector, cut wires, attached old connector on new motor. put blade on new motor.installed in fridge, put cover back on.

The kit I recieved was perfect. All parts fit and where a perfect match. I will give you an A+ in handling my order and shocked by speed of your delivery.

Unlike what the online video showed, my bottom freezer French door refrigerator didn't use hooks to secure the icemaker in place. Instead, it used three tabs with screws to secure it in place. I could see two of them, but not the third one. After removing two screws and realizing that the icemaker was still pretty well secured, I felt around and found the third screw (at the top, right behind the front of the icemaker). Once I got that out, the replacement went easily, as shown on the video. That third screw was a little challenging to put back, but after a few tries I got it in. The icemaker is now making ice like a champ! Good work PartSelect! And the part came quickly, as advertised.

First pulled the Ice tray out of the freezer, Pulled the cord for the power to the refrig. Removed 3-Srews with the nut driver and disconnected the Power Supply to the Ice maker. Removed it from the freezer and started to remove the Bail and install the bail in the new Ice maker. Remove the cover from the side of the old ice maker and install it on the new ice maker. Put it back in the Refrig and connected the power cord and installed the 3-screws and reinstalled the Ice Tray and 30 mins. later it started making ice. Thanks for the Youtube Video it helped a lot to take the pressure off of doing it your self.

Mine was alittle different than the online instructions. 1. I removed the motor. 2. I took the fan off the old motor and cut the wires about 3" back from old motor. 3. Mounted the new fan on bracket and put the fan on the new motor. 4.connected wires that were cut and used wire nuts to connect. 5. Mounted bracket and motor/fan to unit and it works like its brand new. Thank you PartSelect!

Watching the video made this dead easy. If I had a newer refrigerator, I suspect it would have taken 10 minutes. Since I have an older 'fridge, I ran into two issues not in the PartSelect video. First - there were no "clips" to slip the icemaker into/out of, the unit was screwed directly into the freezer wall. Kinda hard to see the screws, especially the one in front, but not a big problem. Second - there is a wire-harness clip at the back side of the icemaker, that hooks onto the ledge of the back connector, just under the screw. That clip had slipped, and until I figured that out and reseated it, it made getting to the rear screw wit the nutdriver a serious pain. Other than those two issues, though, the job was exactly as easy as the video makes it look!

Cubes in bin were freezing together due to water leaking from the ice maker assembly. Replacement went easy with bin rails removed.

1. removed bottom screw. 2. pinched sides of rear connection to disconnected ice maker (noted red wire on top in cabinet rear). 3. bump out old unit taping to release tab on bottom. 4. disconnect wire from icemaker and remove wire holder with philips screwdriver.ew ice maker. 4. reattach harness to new ice make and replace clip. 6 reattach l bracket to bottom of ice maker. 7. detach shut off wire from old ice maker and replace on the new maker. 8. place back into position in freezer compartment. 9. reattach water delivery tube 10. connect wire to rear of cabinet. If motor drive still good on old maker scavenge before throwing away bad parts.

We were not hearing the water turning on to fill the icemaker tray. Took a chance it was the inlet valve. We were right. Removed old one, found on the lower back side of the frig. Unplugged electric supply, plugged new one in and refastened. In 5 minutes we were hearing the water turn on to fill the tray! Thanks

Took out socket, replaced new bulb in new socket and plugged in. Easy!

I unplugged the refrigerator. Then removed the ice tray. Then removed the screw holding the ice maker secure. I had a little difficulty lifting the ice maker off the clips on the side of the refrigerator but was successful. Then unplugged the wire harness from the back of the refrigerator an lifted the unit out. Removed the wiring harness from the old unit and installed it on the new one. Then positioned the new unit so I could plug the harness in the refrigerator and lined up the clips to attach it on the side of the refrigerator, being careful to line up the water distribution tube. Replaced the screw to secure the ice maker and plugged the refrigerator back in and it is working very well. I am very hsappy with the repair

Video was helpful and reading the other responses online was a big help also. Followed all of those instructions. Most difficult part was disconnecting the electrical plug to the ice maker. Need a screwdrive or other pointed object to depress plastic tab. Other than that, things went smoothly. HOWEVER, after turning water back on and plugging in fridge, I thought everthing was perfect...no leaks initially. BUT, came back a few hours later to find no ice cubes in the holding tray, "iceburg" formations and ice dams built up again thoughout the freezer. Water was leaking continuously from the ice maker. Upon further analysis, it appears the electronic mechanism keeps telling the fridge to send water to the ice maker...or, it is sending too much before shutting the water off. The tray is overflowing and that seems to be the problem. I'm back to square one, but with a new ice maker.

Quickly after video

i was having to completely empty the freezer about every 4 days and take the back cover off and use a blow dryer (with appliance the powered off) to remove the ice buildup. once the ice is gone, the heater coil is easily removed with a small wire clip. i measured the coil with my voltmeter and it was 220k or so, no open as i expected. the new part gave me a different reading but only about 10k difference. i decided to install the part and see. well, it's been 2 weeks now and the fridge is ice cold and working great again! saved a bundle by doing it myself and the stress of losing food in the fridge - thanks parts select!
