The ice cutting grid wiring harness had a broken pin
Removed the grid, as when cleaning the evaporator plate. Unscrewed the connections for the old harness, screwed the new one on and re-installed the grid. Nothing to it really

Pump and water solenoid not working-replacedl
Reached in from from of machine to repace the pump amd took bottom front panel off to change the solenoid. Had ordered the pump some time ago because it was noisy. This icemaker was purchased in 1978 and I have maintained it over time with ordered parts. It stll works great and is valued by the family for the beautiful ice free of refrigerator odors.

Solenoid in Water Valve failed open
Determined coil was open when fill valve did not allow water to enter the icemaker tank. Checked coil with Ohmmeter, found open, and ordered part. Part came in in quick order and allowed me to replace fill valve and have machine making ice within 4 business days. Nothing like clear ice maker for making really good ice.

Water soenoid not working
Replaced with new part. Issue this the third time in about 3 years and I do not know why the part life is so short. Replacement is 5 minutes as the valve is just behind the from panel.

The water valve developed a leak, the plastic housing had cracked.
I turned of the power, unplugged the electrical connection to the valve, disconnected the water inlet and outlet pipes, remover two small bolts that attached the valve to the frame of the ice maker and removed the old valve. The new valve was installed in the reverse order. It was a very easy install.
