Replaced Ice Maker

Followed the online PartSelect video instructions and it was very helpful. The ice maker has to cycle through before it starts making ice so don't be alarmed when nothing happens when you first hook it up.

Ice Maker didn't make ice
1 person found this instruction helpful.
  • Kevin from Whitehouse, OH
  • Really Easy
  • Less than 15 mins
  • Nutdriver
Very easy to install the new ice maker. Removed the bottom screw holding the ice maker to the side of the freezer. Loosened the top two screws. The old ice maker came off just like that. Unplugged the power supply from the freezer and removed the whole apparatus.

I saved the wiring harness, screws, cover, and metal arm from the old ice maker. Installed these on the new one and mounted the new ice maker in the freezer. Done.

The only issue I had was that the water supply hose got kinked when I pushed the fridge back into place. Once that was resolved, the new ice maker started happily making ice.

non stick coating coming off in ice cubes / cubes wouldn't come out of tray

  • Richard from WINAMAC, IN
  • Really Easy
  • Less than 15 mins
  • Nutdriver, Screw drivers
Five minutes with a phillips screw driver and the cube maker was changed. . . In the process, I failed to unplug the unit, and shorted the fill valve in the back. Again, five minutes with a nut driver and it was changed. No need for a PHD or the cost of a service technician for either job.

not making ice
1 person found this instruction helpful.
  • Joseph from MILFORD, CT
  • Really Easy
  • Less than 15 mins
  • Nutdriver
the diagnosis was the most difficult step.. and trusting that the one visible nut was the only thing holding it on.. (there are 2 other clips that you need to use a little force on to detach). remove the ice maker (one nut, 2 clips, detach plug).. then remove the 3 screws holding on the 'face' , pry face off, you will see where the 'co ntact' has burned/melted/worn away. replace unit. 80% of the time, this is the problem (according to my research)
