AFD2535FES Refrigerator - Instructions

I went online to PartSelect to see how much I'd expect to pay for the ice maker assembly if I called an appliance repairman to fix it. Instead I found an awesome, very well described video on how to do it myself. I ordered the part and paid ground shipping, but received it the next day!! Installation was a breeze (except I got help removing the electrical jacket because it was an awkward angle and I was afraid that I would damage it). The experience did as much for my single, 55 yr. old self esteem as it did for my wallet. Thank you PartSelect! I'll be back!

Repair was very easy. I watched the video and read the descriptions by other customers and it was just as described. Had ice again in about 4 hours and has been working great since.

He removed the front of the motor box. He then took the motor panel off and replaced it with the new one! So easy!! We have been buying ice or getting it from a friend that has a commercial ice maker. I could not believe it was that simple and the delivery was unbelievable. I ordered the part either Thursday or Friday and FedEx delivered it Saturday! Thank you so much. Now I have all the ice I need!!!

(1) Watched the PartSelect installation video. (2) Placed Order. Arrived in two days, regular delivery. (3) Opened package. (4) Selected installation tool. (5)Removed old Ice Maker Assemply (6) Replaced w/new. Ice in a couple of hours. Video & order/delivery aside, the entire process took less than 10 minutes including selecting tool and opening package. PartSelect video very helpful.

No instructions with part. Found a picture on line and changed the arm, but it didn't fix the problem. Fairly easy after figured out what needed to be done to get to the part.

After watching the video witch was GREAT help THANK YOU

this was an easy repair. most of the work involved emptying the regrigerator so the shelf bracket could be removed and replaced. acual repair only took 10 minutes. Next time I clean the erfrigeratoe I will be more carefull with the shelves so nothing gets broken. Orereing from your web site was very easy, and having the model number, I'm sure, also helped. very fast delivery on the part I needed

The Amana's Ice Maker mounted against the back wall. I'm a 61 year old female that ordered this to help my aging parents. The wire harness only unplugged from the Ice Maker and was hard wired to the Frig. I had to "blindly" try to depress and release the harness clip and that took most of the time. When putting in the new ice maker, I noticed that the opening for the fill tube was now against the wall and not to the back. So, I had to disconnect it again. I found that it is also made for a side right fill by cutting out a perforated tab. Just to make sure there wasn't an overflow out of the other round hole, I used silver tape to plug the hole. It took two hours after plugging back in the frig and turning on the water supply before it made ice.

Kids complaint no ice and smelled like burned plastic,found ice maker melted,Replaced ice maker assembly,used existing harness not supplied with new unit,ice maker still no ice,verified an open at fuse link,installed inline fuse in place of existing fuse link.I was told harness not available.Harness section should be on new unit.Hint Hint!

Ordered replacement icemaker from PartSelect.com. Upon receipt of part installed part as per the online video. All went well. Whirlpool rep. stated that the icemake works well when the freezer temp. is set at 10 degrees or less.It took appreximately 24 hrs.for the icemaker to fill the bucket with fresh ice. It would hace cost approximately $230.00 or more if I had called a Service rep. to do the job. So I elected to do it myself.

well, my problem was the dual water valve. I check the two water valve connectors, one was good ( yellow ) and the other connector (brown) was bad. I tested them both with an ohms meter, of course all power was off. I think when ever there's a problem with not receiving ICE this should be done before replacing the ice-maker for there's a lot of things going on in this area. The Brown Connector releases the water into the ice-tray (that tested Bad with a reading of 257 from ohms meter,and the yellow had a sound from ohms for full contact a good reading. The brown valve was bad.

Part delivered within four days. It took all of 15 minutes to replace the icemaker after viewing the video. had a half a bucket of ice by morning thanks

We had an Appliance Repair service come to fix, and they replaced the ice maker and the water valve, but ice maker was still not performing properly. We use RO water to fill the ice maker and because the water was also going through the charcoal cartridge, there wasn't enough water pressure to completely fill the tray. Plus charcoal filter was probably clogged. The original Blue Bypass Cap was nowhere to be found and I even called Kitchenaid to get one. They were of no help. But found your site, and found the part I needed. And best of all, ice maker is not jamming and is now making real ice cubes, not hollow, thin ones. And the water dispenser is now working too, so am very happy that such a small thing, fixed the big problem. Who knows, a clogged charcoal filter may have been the whole problem from the start.

Its the easiest repair in the world to do. Took less than 15 minutes. Removed the Icemaker unit from friedge, removed 3 screws replaced motor (very easy to do), 1 hr later I had Ice again! =)

The unit has two fans on it. One is located in the back and the other is locate inside the freezer section behind the panel. Remove the four bolts holding the door to the sliding rack. Remove the ice machine. Remove the back panel. Noticed that the fan was covered in ice thus shorting the fan motor. Tested for voltage to the fan was good. Replaced evaporator fan motor and unit works perfectly
