I removed the 4 screws from the cover and replaced the auger and ice bucket assembly. Extremely simple and I was amazed how easy it was.

SUPER easy repair, taking about 5 minutes. After taking out the ice bin, I removed one small phillip's head screw, put the light shield in place, and tightened the screw.

I just slide the new one in place, using exsisting sliders. I had to remove the old grab handle from old pan and snap it into place on new pan.

It still didn't close on its own! I realized I had to loosen the top hinge screws and adjust the door so that it stands more vertically (evening the gap with the freezer door). With this adjustment, the door closes fine.

Removed the face plate (4 screws) on the ice bucket/auger and put it on the new unit.
