Took out the old, replaced with the new. Needed second person to hold the flash light. That is the secret to get it plugged in and secured.

m NAPA and they are an exact fit. The new motor fit perfectly and has run flawlessly since the installation. It is in an awkward location and that takes time to get yourself into position but once there the assembly is very simple and it is rewarding to be able to use the appliance again. The ordering from the website and phone order are very easy to do and you have what you need in a timely and expeditious manner.

I spent 15 - 20 minutes just hunting/deciding which of several sets of parts & directions to follow. The provided directions were not bad; but none of them quite matched my GE ADORA side-by-side model. Once I came up with the actions I would need to take...I was done in 5 minutes! The kit , as I said, came with all the parts one could

Removed old ice maker, then screwed in new ice maker. Only thing that was a little difficult was to hold the auger motor, while trying to unplug the clipped in plug on the old ice maker. I could have used an extra pair of hands.
