HSS25GFTAWW Hotpoint Refrigerator - Instructions

As per Youtube video

Watched the video, did exactly as it showed.

I did the repair per the video;pausing the video as I went along. I hit some snags which I refer as stop points, which may result in buying the entire assembly instead. I trudged through having to back track and disassemble 2 times. I made it through to a functioning unit. I am sure I would do better in the future. Overall, a good and sucessful experience.

unplugged appl. removed valve assembly and removed electodes (?) and water hoses(tubes). replaced hoses & electrodes to new assembly and re-attatched new assembly to refrigerator. plugged appl. back in and turned water on. NO LEAKS. woo hoo. Thanks for the part.

After watching the video twice and having my iPad handy I was able to effect the repair with a minimum of problems in about 40 minutes. The video was a tremendous help.Thank you very much.

Removed all parts to get to the LEFT Hand Thread nylon nut that holds the auger in place. I used a stiff putty knife inserted in the slot of the LEFT Hand Threaded nut to unscrew the nut and then when finished to tighten the nut. Also be careful when removing the plastic covers as they are held in place with plastic catches that can break. I used a thin flat blade screw driver on each side of the covers to gently pry the covers apart. Also note the position and number of the metal fingers and nylon spacers on the auger, a photo of the assembly is helpful.

Piece of cake...did it myself, didn't even need to ask my husband

Had to take front panel off dispenser area. Then remove components and install new part. That was easy part. Problem was getting components back into front of freezer. Seemed like something was blocking it from going all the way in. Had to remove small amount of insulation and "jiggle" components and eventually fell into place.

The first thing I did before starting the repair was watch the 2 videos. I followed the directions step by step and within an hour I had a functioning ice maker again. I had searched all over the web and the other sites were of no help. Your site really made it easy to figure out the problem and order the right parts. I now have a problem with my dishwasher so I will be back on your site soon. Thanks!

Followed the repair video, was spot on!!

The two parts came faster than expected, which was a pleasant surprise. All I had to do was open the box, wash the new parts and place them into the freezer. So easy!

Followed instructions from Visio, made repair easy. Thanks for the instruction Visio.

Turned off water supply, removed bottom rear metal panel,with a towel to catch water pushed in and removed water line from double water outlet, removed metal clamp and then grommet tube assembly from top right rear of refrigerator. Then I put in new grommet tube assembly, turned on my water and checked for leaks.

Removed the faulty ice maker in about two min.. New unit was installed in approx. five min. Watched your video prior to installation and it helped greatly.

First replaced the temp sensor and thermostat, no results. Replaced heating element (looked chared inside the clear tube) and it worked. Heating element is just a plug in connection as comparewd to sensor and thermostat which is splicing in wire connections. Defrosting takes the longest time.
