Found broken pieces of deflector in delivered ice. Removed dispenser, carefully disassembled it, marking fasteners, sprimgs, and levers.

Found exact part in your online reference, ordered at price of $3.76, part arrived two days later--perfect fit, exa ctly same as original. Reassembled, and it works exactly like new. Family very happy. Good job!!!!!

Rusted Auger and Broken Ice Bin Door
4 of 5 people found this instruction helpful.
  • JOHN from CONROE, TX
  • Really Easy
  • Less than 15 mins
  • Screw drivers
After bagging the ice in the old bin and rinsing out the new bin, I removed 4 screws that held the old ice bin facing/door frame to the old ice bin and the facing came right off. Then I just screwed the facing on the new ice bin, popped the new door into place, and put the new ice bin back into the freezer. Although web descriptions for the parts I ordered referenced GE and other appliance brands and not Kenmore at all, the search engine led me to these parts and everything fit perfectly.

  • Jane from Clifton, NJ
  • A Bit Difficult
  • More than 2 hours
  • Nutdriver, Pliers, Screw drivers
Took unit apart but did not take photos of how to put unit back together, so needless to say it took longer then it should have. My error. Ordering the part was very easy and within days the part arrived at my door. Should the need arise, I would order again from Part Select.com.

you must pay careful attention when taking the dispenser apart,especially the long rod that controls the deflector,but if close attention is payed to disassembly you should have no problem.

Ice-maker grinding faceplate heavily rusted causing rusty ice
3 of 5 people found this instruction helpful.
  • kenneth from west chicago, IL
  • Easy
  • 30 - 60 mins
  • Nutdriver, Screw drivers
Disassembled ice-maker, noting what screws went where, what direction ice release control arm pointed, and noting how the control arm spring was mounted. The door assembly comes off first followed by the circular assembly that houses the ice door and last grinding arms. It is quite easy see how it comes apart as you look at the screws. Remove the screw holding the back end of the control arm and note the spring position. The control arm needs to be turned to line up notches to pull it thru a faceplate hole while rotating the arm about the "U" that is on the outside of the faceplate in the door housing. There is a retaining clip holding the rotating impeller to remove to complete the dis-assembly. Use vinegar to clean rust out of bin and other parts around the faceplate. Assemble the unit in the reverse order to complete the job.

heavy frost buildup in ice dispenser chute and door
2 of 2 people found this instruction helpful.
  • Robert from Rockford, IL
  • Really Easy
  • 15 - 30 mins
  • Pliers
After inspection of the new door recess assembly, I realized that I could use sidecutters (electronic assembly type) and 'clip' off the inward lock tabs of the old recess assembly and disengage it from the crank door arm without any further disassembly of the refrigerator door. It was easy to 'unhitch' the tang from the crank arm and wi ggle it out through the external opening of the ice/water dispenser compartment. I reversed the process and inserted the new assembly through the external opening of the compartment. The new door recess assembly snapped into place on the crank arm and fit tightly against the ice chute opening, correcting the issue caused by aging distortion of the old rubber seal cup portion of the door recess assembly.

Ice was discolored due to rust on auger

  • Angel from Chandler, AZ
  • Really Easy
  • Less than 15 mins

Removed the old assembly from the refrigerator. Used a screwdriver to remove the four screws attaching the old assembly to the plastic front plates. Opened the box holding the new part (which had arrived very promptly at our doorstep), removed it and attached it very easily to the plastic front plates using the same four screws. Placed th e new assembly in the refrigerator and started making new ice. It was EASY!! We had read what others had said about this repair and knew it would be something we could do. Your website is very user friendly and helpful.
