KBFA20ERBL01 KitchenAid Refrigerator - Instructions

The ice maker change out was easy. The problem was the part came with a different filler cup but the one needed was supplied. Changing to the other cup required taking the ice maker apart and installing the other filler cup. Go to the parts list and find the filler cup. Use instructions found there to change to other cup and then install your ice maker.

Drawer guides on the bottom of the crisper frame could not be glued back into place. The replacement frame arrived in 1 day. Be gentle removing crisper vent shutters, trim, and the metal reinforcement channel from the old frame! Re-install them on the new frame then hang the assembly in the fridge. Slide the drawers and glass back into place. I added a dab of clear silicone grease (bulb and socket lube)on each drawer slide.

removed bins and meat/cheese cover. Removed slider with two screws. Removed broken end cap with two screws. There is a plastic linkage to a vent in the rear. Removed three pieces from inside the end cap. These are are all snap-in parts, but require manipulation. Took some time to figure out. Same on reinstall. Cleaned up drawers and cover. Easy!

I found the video and write up’s very useful for repairing a newer refrigerator that just ran out of warranty.

We tried repairing with a new switch which was very easy to install but it didn't fix the problem.

My Maytag side by side had stopped making ice suddenly. My wife loves her ice. We were at a loss until we found the Parts Select website. I ordered the new icemaker and the dual water valve. After watching the short installation videos I changed the parts on my refrigerator and in about 45 minutes I heard the sound of ice dropping into the bucket. With the wide selection of part and easy to understand videos we had Ice and my wife was happy. I recommend this site to anyone that wants to repair a malfunctioning appliance

Piece of cake. Took out old filer and put in new one!

First off I had no idea how a fridge worked or where to begin and the troubleshooting section of the manual was a joke. So I took the back panel off made sure the coils underneath were clean. Took out the back panel of the freezer and made sure that nothing was frozen over and I hadn't seen excess water on the floor so ruled that out. I knew the condenser was still running so I took a shot in the dark. Ordered the part and waited for it to arrive. It took me 3 minutes to open the box and install it. Immediately knew it was working replaced the back panel and moved the fridge back.

Removed plate from back of fridge,removed water lines, removed valve from plate, put new valve on, reconnect hoses, reinstall plate.

Opened filter area door turned old filter to the left to unscrew. Took out old filter then replaced the new filter and turned it to the right to tighten it, closed cover and that was it all done.

Probably a result of hard water. Valve did not close down completely after ice making cycle. Video made job easy just make sure plastic hoses are in all the way. Problem solved.

removed old icemaker and transfer some of the parts to the new icemaker. The only problem was that I had to disasemable the new icemaker to replace the fill tray with the older style (which was included). Once that was done, installation was pretty easy.

I removed the old ice maker as described by the DIY video and had no problem except, I had to remove the ice tray from the motor section so the end cap could be changed. This only required removal of two Phillips screws on the case of the motor assembly, that are used to to secure the tray. Once the tray was off, the ice ejector could be removed and the end cap was free to change. Everything was re-installed in reverse order and unit was mounted. An FYI to anyone with slow ice making, will need to check their freezer temperature. Make sure it's set to get as cold as 5-10 degrees Fahrenheit. After installing new maker, it was not making ice fast enough, only to find my freezer temperature needed to be changed as well. Everything is working as it should now.

The ice maker was easily replaced, however I still had no ice. I ended up using an on-line repair service which determined that the problem was the water inlet valve. Replacing it was beyond my expertise so I hired an appliance repairman.

Replaced part--4 hexhead screws. This is my third time changing this part (right and left) and was happy to see that an obviously under-engineered design has been modified. The pin bracket has been reinforced and appears much stronger.The most time consuming portion of the fix was cleaning off the shelves for removal. Thanks for asking. Norm Notdurft
