Icemaker not working properly

  • Joseph A from Sachse, TX
  • Really Easy
  • Less than 15 mins
  • Nutdriver
The icemaker was an exact duplicate of the one in my refrigerator. I installed the correct shutoff bar on the icemaker and removed the tab for the water fill spout. After pulling the power cord I loosened the two top screws with a nutdriver and removed the bottom screw. I pulled the icemaker from the rear wall, away from the fill spou t, and disconnected the wire harness. Installation was just the reverse of the removal.

added lowering clips to brackets, plugged it in,
hung on sidewall. Plug in power, turned water on,
had ice in an hour. The written directions could be a little more detailed..I am very satisfied with the ease of installation.

Icemaker quit working

  • Dennis from Scottsdale, AZ
  • Really Easy
  • 15 - 30 mins
  • Nutdriver, Pliers
I removed the 3 screws that held the unit in place and disconnected the power supply from the front part of the icemaker. I then assembled the replacement icemaker and plugged it in to power supply. I then mounted it with the 3 screws that it required. (Tip): Note the top 2 screws do not need to be totally removed just loosen them enough to remove icemaker. I then cycled the iemaker shutoff arm several times and within 45 minutes I had my first ice cubes
