the auger was rusty, causing ice to have brown spots
Pay close attention to how you disassemble everything. You might even want to take a picture. I taped all the screws right where I unscrewed them, to make sure they were replaced in the right section. Also use the picture diagram that on the computer.

Replace oxidized auger and Ice bucket assembly
Very simple replacement of complete assembly. I debated replacing individual parts that would have taken considerable effort. Ordered the complete assembly and it was simple to replace.Removal of face plate by removing two Philips screws and reusing them to hold face plate on. Jim

The auger was rusted with age and made the ice taste bad.
The disassembly and reassembly was straightforward but the parts diagram was very helpful to help you get it back together. Make sure you get the convexity of the clip that retains the clear plastic barrel to the auger pointing in the right direction. The metal plate that that comes out with the assembly seems to rust as fast as the auger, so you should just order that when you order the auger. I did not replace the plate so I cleaned it and painted it with epoxy paint before I reassembled.

Refrigerator was only dispensing crush ice and not cubes
Solenoid pushing the crushed ice flapper was burned out. Solenoid was easy to find unplug and replace. I used the old piston which simplified things. Now works great

Rusty Auger
The parts recommended were exactly what I needed. The comment section on not paying attention during the removal were very helpful. I took a picture before totally taking everything apart. Thanks for the added comment.

The silver plating on the auger was coming loose, rusting and getting in the ice cubes.
All I had to do was remove four (4) screws from the old ice bucket assembly to remove the front cover and attach it with the existing screws to the new ice bucket assembly. It was a very simple repair. Thanks for the expedient delivery and the exact replacement part that I needed.
