Customerrobert from wesley chapel FL
Plastic auger cracked. This part moves the ice in the bin forward to the dispenser
1) Removed the ice bin and emptied the ice.
2) Removed 5 screws total
3) (hardest part) JImmied a flat blade screwdriver into the left top side of the housing and pried gently to disengage the plastic holding clip. This only allows the left side of the housing to move up about a half-inch. Did the same on the right side and 'walked' the assembly out of the bin.
4) Removed the C clip and washer that holds the auger. and removed the auger assembly.
5) Before removing the screw at the end of the assembly, it is a good idea to take pictures of the ice crushing part of the assembly so that it goes back on correctly.
6) Removed the screw and carefully stacked the ice crush blades and washers.
7) Installed the ice crush blades on the new auger, re-installed the screw, washer and C clip.
8) Re-assembly is easy, you just need to set the end of the auger in the back of the ice bin and slowly re-install the housing portion.

Replaced dispenser auger.
Read your instructions, which were very helpful, and followed them to install. It took a while for me to realize that the threaded cap at the end of the auger was a left-hand thread. Other than that, I had no problems.

CustomerGeorge from Noblesville IN
Auger was broken
The difficulty was in separating the plastic ice crusher housing from the ice tray so you could get the old auger out. You need three hands. My son had to help hold the tray so I could get those two catches (one on either side of the ice tray) pressed in and unsnapped. I wrapped a small screwdriver with electrical tape and slid it between the two pieces to get them to unlatch. Once this was accomplished, the new auger was easy to install.

Plastic auger blade broke off
removed 4 screws in order to view and remove auger. removed metal and set washer on back of auger. This step not difficult. This will release auger from plastic ice resovoir. Again, not difficult. Remove plastic nut after removing auger. This procedure will release crushed ice blades and 5 plastic washers, 3 flat and 2 raised. You have got to remember order of blades and washer. Again draw diagram take pictures. Very, very important. Put back as taken apart. Good Luck

Auger blade parts showed up in my iced tea
Dis-assembly only consisted of three screws, but for the not-so mechanically inclined, I would suggest taking a picture of the ice crusher blades before removing them from the auger shaft.

A piece of the ice dispenser auger broke off
Replaced the ice dispenser auger. Removing the auger from the ice drawer is not to bad. Removing the ice crushing teeth at the front of the auger is a little more challenging. Putting the auger in a vise helps simplify the job.

CustomerKenn from Shasta Lake CA
Ice in the door would no longer eject ice; stuck
Problem: The hardened ice crushing blades had worn the shaft causing them to "lay over" and get stuck.
Remove the ice maker drawer. On the bottom remove two phillips screws to take off the front cover.
The interior white insert in the front has two tabs that hold it in place. Releasing this is the hardest part. I used a small straight screwdriver to CAREFULLY pry the sides away from the tabs so that it could be lifted out. This removes the whole ice ejector and auger shaft.
Lift out the shaft, leaving the crusher blades in order.
Slide the new auger shaft into the crusher blades, pop in the back part and reassemble!
