XSS25GYPFCFS General Electric Refrigerator - Instructions

Really easy, removed top lid, removed broken Ice bucket, rinsed and inspected new ice bucket for any packing or shipping materials, installed new ice bucket & Auger assembly and installed top lid. Ice dispenser works just like it was new.
Highly recommend for replacement parts. Great customer service support, OME and speedy shipping.

Very simple install.
Take the ice bucket and top shelf off and pull it out of the freezer. Get a nut driver for the bolt holding the auger motor onto the left side glide. Then maneuver the auger motor off the left side glide and take the 2 screws out of the right glide and replace with new glide.

I looked up a YouTube video that showed the step-by-step how to replace the crusher solenoid in my GE side-by-side refrigerator.

Slid right in; identical to original part. Took 5 seconds to install.

Uncovering the motor is the most difficult part. Installation is stupid-easy. Put all of the coverings back on in reverse order to the way they were removed. I don't think the ice maker has to come out but we weren't using it so it came out first.

Pull out old drawer and replace with new one.

I followed your video and completely dismantled the refrigerator evaporator motor, fan, brackets, and grommet, I completely cleaned the refrigerator including the cooling coils. I then ordered the evaporator motor ,fan, grommets, lid bumper, and brackets. The order would take a week to arrive. In the meantime I cleaned and reassembled al ... Read more l the old parts, waiting for the new ones to come. Guess what! The refrigerator was quiet as a mouse. I really did not need the new parts, but I kept them anyway just for good luck. Not bad for a refrigerator that's twenty four years old.

I called out a repairman who used a laptop to troubleshoot. He charged me $119 just to come out. He told me that the control board wasn't telling the evaporator to periodically defrost and I noticed that it was encased in ice. Then, he gave me an estimate of $400 to replace the board. Breaking down the estimate, that would be $200 for ... Read more labor, about 30 minutes, and another $200 for the board, however, he didn't have a replacement board in stock. Knowing that I could replace the board myself, I was happy to order the board from PartSelect and save on the $200 labor charge.

On the internet forum I read that if the control board needs to be changed , do the same for the Run Capacitor/relay.
The Ge profile refrigerator was 15 years old. First I disconnect the power cord,
I removed the control board at the back of the fridge, replaced it with a new one and did the same for the run capacitor.
P ... Read more lugged the power cord back and it works fine. GE repair service did not want to come to do it. DIY is fine.

This is about the easiest repair you can make. Simply pull out the old auger/bucket assembly and reinsert the new one and your done!
