3ECKMF86 Whirlpool Ice Maker - Instructions

Removed 4 screws, pulled unit out of slots, unpluged control wires plug and removed from fridg. Removed 3 screws that hold the motor module to unit. Then reversed procedure and had the batch of ice cubes one hour and fifteen minutes from the time I started replacement.

replaced moduale, work just like new.

I ordered the part and just 1 1/2 days later, it arrived! Awesome!

I took the cover off the ice maker motor. Then I simply unscrewed the three screws holding the motor in place (be VERY careful - the hinge mechanism that holds the ice maker on/off bar needs to be gently removed from the motor so the prongs do not break).

Once the motor and ice maker hinge were removed, I simply pushed the new motor on, screwed all three screws back in, put the cover back over the motor, pushed the bar to 'on' and water flowed and ice was made! I turned it to Max so I would have lots of ice in a short amount of time then returned the switch to Normal and I've not had a problem since.

I unscrewed the fill tube screws from the back of the fridge, and pulled the tube out.

Then I put the new tube in, screwed the screws back in and reconnected the waterline.

Removed the two screws holding the funnel in place...removed the old one and replaced it witht he new tubing...screwed screws back in and the jov was complete. It actually took longer to get it out of the sack than it did to put it together

unpluged the refrigerator, remove three screws holding ice maker in place, disconnected wire clip, removed front of icemaker by relaesing two clips holding it in place. the module and motor assembly are held in place with three screws. put the icemaker together and replaced it in freezer, and pluged the cord back in. the icemaker started making ice in about 15 minutes. very easy fix

Simply removed the old and replaced with the new part.

My husband is a plumber...but did not have time to make the repair. So I took it upon myself!

Super Easy!

1. Unplugged Fridge
2. Unscrewed the 3 screws on motor
3. Pulled out old motor
3. Had to pour some hot water to melt ice cubes that were currently in the shoot. (because the new part would not line up correctly because of the frozen cubes inside the maker). Then soaked up all the water with towels.
4. Inserted the new motor
5. Put 3 screws back in.

ICE, ICE BABY! Within a couple hours it was dropping ice into the bucket! Husband came home, and I told him I fixed the ice maker (his expression was of dread)...and then he checked it out and all was perfect! So proud!

removed icemaker timer/controler replaced with new part.reinstaled it works perfectly

Change motor on icemaker by taking the screw out the bottom ice tray so it will slide out once I remove the I took door off the icemaker it pops off. And follow the instructons for shower

I determined that the plastic lever inside the icemaker was broken and I found the part easaly. It was farelly inexpensive considering the important job the ice maker does, so I order it and paid for the standard, 5-8 days delivery. To my surprise, it was delivered (to my neighbors house thanks to the delivery person) the next day. Once Berry the neighbor delivered it to my house, 15 minutes later ice was being made. I had to remove one screw and losen two on top of the icemaker, disconnect power and remove the icemaker. I don't think that this step was even required but I wanted to remove all of the old ice from the maker without thawing out the freezer. Replacing the part itself also required removal of three screws. I think that almost anyone can do this easily (with or without Berry).

3 Years ago our icemaker stopped working and we paid a professional $225.00 to come and repair. This time I chose to investigate the problem on line and PartSelect website gave me info on the motor assembly that may be the problem. Sure enough I purchased the part, it was delivered in two days. My husband installed the control & motor assembly in less than 15 minutes. We had ice within hours. Thanks for saving us a service call and the expense. The Goldbergs

replaced icemaker motor.easy peasy

I followed the simple steps outlines in the great video! Thanks

I removed the two screws that hold the ice maker door. I then removed the single screw on the right underside of the ice maker. I depressed the plastic "catch" on the left underside of the assembly and the whole thing just pulled straight out. I then disconnected the wire harness.

The module cover is removed, then the module itself is easily removed by removing three screws.
The assembly is just as easy.

A few hours later, I had a half bucket of ice!
