106653522 Kenmore Ice Maker - Instructions

I removed the 3 screws that held the unit in place and disconnected the power supply from the front part of the icemaker. I then assembled the replacement icemaker and plugged it in to power supply. I then mounted it with the 3 screws that it required. (Tip): Note the top 2 screws do not need to be totally removed just loosen them enough to remove icemaker. I then cycled the iemaker shutoff arm several times and within 45 minutes I had my first ice cubes

The first issue was to determine if the problem was with the ice maker or the water dispenser / pump. I chose to try to repair the dispenser first since there air bubbles in the plastic line. Also, the ice maker seems to have been working. There just wasn't enough water so the ice cubes were hollow.

I unplugged the power cord, , removed the cardboard backing and two bolts that secured the pump to the refrigerator. I vacumned the area so I could see around. I pulled the valve out and disconnected it from the internal power source. I disconnected the copper water intake and the plastic tubbing to the ice maker. I used a pipe cutter to take the old flanged area off. A new flange was included in the package. I used that and reconnected the copper intake and the plastic tubbing. I replaced the power source and secured the valve to the refrigerator makeing sure the plastic tubbing wasn't twisted. When I plugged the refrigator back up, the ice maker started working within five minutes.

Turned off power and water, removed 2 screws on the bottom, loosened 2 screws on the top, pulled ice maker out a couple inches so I could disconnect wires, and removed old ice maker. I cut the slot in the back of new ice maker for the water line with pocket knife and installed the new unit. Took less the 30 minutes.

After turning off the water to the fridge, I removed the 3 screws holding the icemaker, and unhooked the wire harness. I just reversed the process to reinstall and it took about 20 minutes, and we had a bin full of ice the next day.

I first removed the door, very easy to do, then removed one screw that held the icemaker in place. I then unplugged the electricity to the frig, slid the unit out and disconnected the electrical harness. Luckily the harness on the new icemaker matched up with the original plugin on the frig so it wasn't necessary to change the wiring on the new part. I simply slid the new icemaker in plugged it in put the retaining screw in, the door on, plugged the frig in and started makinmg ice. Couldn't have been easier.

Tested water valve by disconnecting power and adding 110VAC to valve to be certain the valve worked before ordering new ice maker. Rather than guessing on the part of the ice maker that was defective I ordered a new ice maker complete for a few doorars more and that fixed the problem.

Very easy. I unplugged the electrical connection of the icemaker from the refrigerator and removed 3 screws. I plugged in the new icemaker and replaced the screws and that was it, a piece of cake!

followed instructions and replaced unit.
very easy and will roder again from this

Parts arrived amazingly fast. Replaced top ice maker and bottom water control valve[which was probably the source of my problem all along] in about an hour. The online installation video's were a big help. Thanks.

I ordered the replacement ice maker on a Saturday, received it on the next Tuesday, and in stalled it in a little over 15 minutes. Very quick, very easy. Partselect.com was easy to use and exceeded my expectations on every issue. Thanks.

Very simple repair. Ice maker was operating, but not receiving water. Once new valve was in place it works like new.

added lowering clips to brackets, plugged it in,
hung on sidewall. Plug in power, turned water on,
had ice in an hour. The written directions could be a little more detailed..I am very satisfied with the ease of installation.

I removed one screw from lower portion of unit and loosened 2 top screws. Lifted unit to slide off top screws and unplugged unit. Plugged in unit and positioned unit on 2 top screws. Installed bottom screw and tightened top 2 screws. Repair complete.

The icemaker was an exact duplicate of the one in my refrigerator. I installed the correct shutoff bar on the icemaker and removed the tab for the water fill spout. After pulling the power cord I loosened the two top screws with a nutdriver and removed the bottom screw. I pulled the icemaker from the rear wall, away from the fill spout, and disconnected the wire harness. Installation was just the reverse of the removal.

three screws and a plug in and it was done!
