Water Actuator (dispensing paddle) broke and not able to glue again
Fortunately, this was not hte first time to do a repair on the through the door dispensers. I turned the unit off and removed the door tray (slides out) to expose the screws for trim removal. When that is removed, you remove the circuitry and then remove the actuator and spring. It was difficult to get the new actuator in place. the "stop" which holds it in pace is not forgiviing! And that is being mild. (I remember a few explitive delitives I thought wer gone foreever! I reconnected the circuit to the panel, replaced the panel, and the tricky part was to reinsert the water hose into the dispenser hole. Good luck. When that was in, the entire unit was reeturned with the four screws. The front trim panel was replaced with four screws, and the slide in drip tray was slid in. Job done, and the power was restored. Thank goodness I had some long hemostates to control the reinsertion of the water tube!

replaced water valve
The changing of the water valve was pretty straight forward. First shut the water off to the ice maker, then pull the refrigerator out. Once that is done, then I removed the cardboard covering with a cordless drill, loosened the screws that held the water valve in place. The water valve assembly is colored coordinated so disconnecting and reconnecting the lines to the new valve assembly was pretty easy. Reattached the cardboard covering pushed refrigerator back and place turn on supply line and waited for the ice maker to fill up. After several cycles on the ice maker I made one slight adjustment on the ice cube size behind the cover of the ice maker. Total time one hour, then waiting for the ice maker to cycle a few times to ensure all was working properly.

The ice crusher flap was broken.
Took out the ice box, dumped the ice. Let warm up a bit. Then took out the housing and installed the new one. Works great. Saved a lot of money! Only took a couple days to receive the part. Great service.

My Ice Maker stopped making ice and the water dripped from the dispenser
I turned off the water, removed the cardboard cover from the back of the refrigerator; removed the 2 screws holding the water valve in place; unscrewed the plastic tubing from the valve; unplugged the wires to each solenoid (3); the old valve had threaded connections for the plastic water lines, the new valve didn't; I had to cut the ferrel off of the plastic lines so I could insert them into the new valve and then press the connector into the valve (I didn't anticipate something like this, but it worked fine); I reconnected the wiring and screwed the valve back into place. The ice maker started making ice and the water stopped dripping from the dispenser. The best $65 I've ever spent.

Ice would not release
To describe this replacement as "really easy" is an understatement! The hardest part was digging the socket set out of the tool box. The instructions were well written, as were descriptions of fellow home do it yourself types. Those gave me the confidence to just for it. I am so tickled with myself and the money I saved! My hubby is pretty impressed too! Cathy

The Door Closing Cam had crumbled
followed the video and had little or no trouble loosening or tightening bolts or phillips head screws. The only difficulty was removing the spacer on the door itself. Otherwise a piece of cake. Good video and easy to follow instructions.

No Ice, No Water
Turned off the refrigerator, removed the bottom drawer from refrigerator, then removed the glider bars for the drawer on the left side where the filter chamber is. Removed the filter and then removed the plastic peace guarding the filter chamber. Once that was all removed we removed the screws holding the filter base in place. Now that everything was exposed we removed the inlet and outlet lines from the filter base by pushing in the nobs inside the base and pulling the lines out with some slight elbow grease. After that we just proceeded in reverse. We plugged the filter in after the base was secure to make sure that the fix worked. The repair worked like a charm, was relatively simple and now our fridge is all better with water and ice without a large repair bill :o)
