MSD2651HEW Maytag Refrigerator - Instructions

Apparently, the manufacturer sometimes substitutes a part but keeps the same number, which is what happened here. The part wouldn't fit in the actual space on this model--even though the number was apparently correct! Refunding my money and assisting me to contact the manufacturer directly couldn't have been easier! Impressive customer service in a difficult situation.

Shut off water and unplug fridge. Remove ice drawer. Unscrew one short nut underneath icemaker, and the two longer ones holding it to the wall of the freezer. Now remove white cover. It just needed a little jiggling w a flat head screwdriver to loosen it. Now you can see where the wire harness is connected, use the same flathead to depress the plastic pin holding it in place, and slide it out. Remove the wire harness from the metal clip on side of icemaker. Now you should be holding the old icemaker in your hands. Remove the bale carefully. Now install the bale into the new icemaker, while making sure it's in the 'down' or 'on' position. Bring the new icemaker into position, gently snap the wire harness into place, sliding the wire into the clip like it originally was. Fasten the three screws again. Then, finally, snap the white cover back into place. Slide the ice drawer back into position, turn on the water, plug the fridge back in and wait 30-45 minutes for your first batch of new ice cubes.

I watched the video on how to change the ice maker, very easily explained, and removed the old in about 10 minutes.After seeing how the old one came out it only took five minutes to install the new one. The appliance repaircompany wanted$120 just to diagnose the problem,i bought the part from partselect for$104 total. This is the forth time I've used this site and saved a ton of money.

Pried out the old switch with small screwdriver, popped in the new one and tah-dah!! ..the light came on. While I was at it, I cleaned out the freezer :). I cannot begin to imagine what a repairman would have charged for this.

Received the hinge and it took only minutes to hang the refrigerator door.

This was an easy fix. Just pull off the old gasket and press the new gasket in place.

Ordered the correct replacement part (Icemaker Auger and Crusher Blade Assembly) as found here at PartSelect.com. Part was delivered within two days. Removed two screws to remove the old assembly; inserted new assembly, replaced the screws and problem fixed. Couldn't be easier.

Replaced water filter head. Very easy to do. Make sure that you also have a bucket so that you don't spill water everywhere when you disconnect the water line from the fridge.

Removed old auger unit by removing two screws - installed new auger unit by replacing the two screws. Easy schmeasy!

1.Lift out the ice bucket. 2.Remove two screws at bottom. 3. Remove front (made up from parts 20 and 21 in diagram by lifting the plastic flanges at the bottom and sliding it off upwards. Fingers were adequate to lift the flanges. 4. Remove the mechanism. It comes right out. 5. Slide the mechanism into the new bucket. 6. Put the front onto the new bucket by sliding down and lifting the flanges over the ridge at the bottom of the bucket. 7. Put the two screws in at the bottom. 8. Slide the bucket back into the freezer. This was the easiest repair I have ever done.

Based on comments I read at this web site, I first ordered the water valve; that did not fix the problem. Replacing the icemaker did fix the problem. It was easy to replace. Contrary to the instructional video, I couldn't simply tilt out the icemaker at the bottom after removing the lower screww; I had to loosed the two top screws as well. The leak was caused the coating on the icemaker being cracked and peeling.

After watching the video on your web site the repair was very easy. It took only 15 minutes to replace the valve.

I watched the video which gave me confidence that I could do the repair which I did in very little time. One thing to emphasize though: When you remove the vertical wire connector from the back of the freezer compartment, remember which color wire is on the top. I needed to watch the repair video a second time to be able to make that determination. Probably the repair video should have mentioned keeping track of that connector regarding the re-connection of it because it could also connect when turned 180 degrees.

I watched a youtube video and completed the repair in less than an hour from start to finish and save myself a service charge. It was fairly easy, the only problem was that it was a bottom freezer and getting to the ice maker was harder than if it was a side by side or top freezer.

I order the part from Part Select and watched "How to Replace the Dual Water Valve" video that was offered on the Part Select web site. I followed the process and easily replaced the part. I was quite pleased with the service from Part Select.
