ZISB36DRC General Electric Refrigerator - Instructions

Removed old ice maker, then screwed in new ice maker. Only thing that was a little difficult was to hold the auger motor, while trying to unplug the clipped in plug on the old ice maker. I could have used an extra pair of hands.

replaced circuit board and water solenoids

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.

It was so easy! I seldom attempt any household repair because I have a husband that can fix anything, but he was not available. One screwdriver & remove 4 screws attaching the existing front to old auger/bucket. Line up the screw holes on new bucket with old front, put the 4 screws in through those holes tighten screws & I was done.

The part arrived promptly but was defective. Upon learning of the problem by PartSelect a new part was shipped and was delivered incredibly quickly. Installing it was easy and took only about 5 minutes. We were pleased with the speed in sending the parts and the ease of installation. We will call on them again if necessary because of their good business practices.

pulled out frig unplugged power turned off water at tank disconnected water line and electrical plugs replaced valve replaced wire hook ups different size but easy to install.(came with valve) Cut water lines off inserted into valve different sizes so easy to connect in right place. Reattached electrical wires. (Note remember were the wires came from) Checked for leaks Done! Might want to make sure tubes are inserted completely and you cut the tubes off straight...possible water leak if not.

Took out the old, replaced with the new. Needed second person to hold the flash light. That is the secret to get it plugged in and secured.

I read the step by step instructions that came with the part. I turned two screws and disconnected the electrical harness and Removed the icemaker. Two other parts from the old icemaker were easily removed without any tools and put on the new icemaker. The new icemaker was put in the same way the old one came out. I reconnected the electrical harness and tightened the old screws. The hardest part of the whole job was reading the directions. They were easy to follow if you take the time to Just read them!

I just followed the directions carefully, loosened the screws with a nutdriver removed the unit from the screws, unplugged the unit from the freezer plug, took out the new unit, used the adapter supplied with the unit to match up with the plug in the freezer, carefully attached the icemaking unit to the screws, carefully slid the cord behind the unit, lightly clinched down the screws, checked it with a level and then did the final snug down. turned the unit on and it worked fine. Pretty easy, just take your time, don't rush and it will come out fine.

Gently pry out switch in door jam with screwdriver and pull both connectors off and put connectors on new switch then push switch back into the hole. Looked it up on the internet and video showed how to and also had link to new part, ordered and less than a week later the fridge is bright again. I have an older freezer also and it seems that they all use the same switches. Very Very easy

Super easy, had my 15 year old do it (with my supervision).
Followed very clear Instructions that come with the replacement...
But, he could not get to the plug location until he removed 4 screws holding the motor assembly that spins the ice in the drawer and moved it out of the way...
Followed the rest of the instructions...
Works like a charm.

I removed the valve from the fridge with a nut driver, this allowed me to disconnect the two lines and the water main inlet. Re attach the main line and cut off ends of both plastic lines with a razor knife and re insert the two lines. Last was to connect the main water inlet and tighten . The last thing was to turn on the water and check for leaks and we had none so put the fridge back in its proper place and job done. Thank you for your help Michael

Ordered Auger and Ice Bucket Assembly All I had to do was install 4 screws. Worked great. Thanks.Joe

Installing the actual ice maker was quite easy. What takes most of the time is preparing the freezer for the install. Need to remove all shelving, (and the door) to gain access to the unit. The ice maker is simple to install once access is achieved. Putting everything back together takes some time.

I'm a real novice at appliance repair but learned a lot from this effort. After doing enough online research and watching videos, I diagnosed the problem with my 20 year old ice maker. It was working, just not getting water. So I ordered a new water valve, much cheaper than the part Sears recommended. I easily hooked up the new valve but the old copper water supply line was leaking so I ordered a $7 pex line from Home Depot. Hooked it all back up and now I'm in business, and saved some money too!
