ice would stick in 5 of the 14 cubes spaces from mineral deposits, then ice couldn't drop and water would not fill
was easy watching youtube video of how to replace whole ice maker, was only 3 screws, remove from the door, a couple of screws hold it to the flat piece, route the wires around the unit, connect the plug as installing it in the door, position it, and tighten 3 screws, that easy

Ice Maker Can’t Rotate/Discharge Ice
First, remove power to the refrigerator.

To replace the ice maker you first have to remove the back mounting assembly, which ice maker is attached to.

Only three Phillips head screws need to be removed: 2 on the bottom and 1 on the back of the ice maker mounting assembly. Do not remove the two diagonal Phillips head screws holding the dispenser motor on the reverse side of the mounting assembly.

As you pull out the mounting assembly to the front you will see a connector on the top inside, which must be unplugged. A narrow standard screw driver will help the connector lock to release; slide the screwdriver tip under the connector lock clip and it will allow the connector to be unplugged.

Once the ice maker mounting assembly is removed and placed on a flat surface it will be self evident as to how to remove and replace the ice maker. The 1” tape might be needed during the cable re-routing process. However you can reuse the original tape required to be removed during the ice maker remove and replace process, if possible.

Reinstall the ice maker mounting assembly in the reverse order it was removed.

Apply power to the refrigerator.

Cycle the ice maker to Off and then back to On. It may take an hour or two before the ice maker produces ice because the temperature inside the ice maker must reach “0” degrees Fahrenheit before it will begin making ice.





Pull the ice maker
