HMG67184 Admiral Refrigerator - Instructions

First I loosened 2 phillips head screws at the top of the ice maker (the one that is close to the front is a little difficult to get a screwdriver on). These 2 screws do not have to be removed. Took 1 screw out of the L-bracket at the bottom of the ice maker. I then slipped the icemaker upward from the 2 top screws and unplugged the electrical wires at the connector at back of the refrigerator to remove the ice maker. I then removed the front cover from it and placed it on the replacement ice maker. I also swapped the L-brackets on the two ice makers as the new one was bent. I then reinstalled the new Ice maker in the reverse order.

I simply removed 3 nut head screews and the old unit came off. I removed the ice level arm off the old unit and put on the new one. I removed the old wire harness and plugged into the new unit. I mounted the new unit, plugged it in and was done. I had ice in less than an hour. So simple my 11 year old could have done it without help.

Most of the stories on repairing this ice maker indicated that was real easy until describing the Amana version. The fill tube attaches differently. The recommendation was to use your old "cup". I have found that to make the change required that you find a philips screw driver and locate two access holes in the motor end of the control unit. you can loosen those two screws (they won't fall out) all of the way and pull the control unit from the tray part of the ice maker. DON'T remove the three screws that hold the control unit together or rotate the sprocket. This will allow you to disassemble the parts that hold the "cup" in place. Just remember "if it isn't coming apart easily your not doing it right".

Removed one screw that held the unit in place. Took a few minutes to determine how to disengage the unit from the plastic clips. The most difficult part was disconnecting the electrical cable.but in less than 30 minutes the new unit was in place and filled with water to start forming ice.

First, I read about 15 descriptions of this repair on your web site. Then I carefully attempted the job. I found that, as others said, the most difficult part of the replacement was the electrical connection, both unplugging and plugging it back in to the replacement part. The icemaker did not seem to function at first, so I removed the part and made sure I had fully inserted the plug into the receptacle. This took far less time than the initial removal and replacement. It began to work fine, and is really an easy job- just makes a person nervous w/o directions, etc.

Replaced the ice maker ass'y,for me it was easy as i have been a mechanic all my life however there was'nt any instructions with the new ice maker to explain about moving the control arm from old to new and as mine was stuck in the motor end it would have been nice to know how much force could be applied to free arm

Followed the tutorial on the site and it was spot on. had the same problem as most- dirt in the ice, and then it stopped altogether. was well worth the $100 for the info/parts. would do it again in a second

Followed the video and in less than thirty minutes the new icemaker was installed and in under an hour we had ice!

Had I not confused the old ice maker with the new one and tried to reinstall the old ice again I would have been done in less than 15 minutes. The instructions were clear and helpful, the parts all fit and it went right in. It worked within a few minutes and has been perfect since. Thanks

Ice maker was leaking water into the bin causing it to freeze together. To repair I purchased a new Ice Maker part no PS2121513 for $101.00. I used the repair video to find out how to replace the part, the video was very helpful and enabled me to replace the ice maker in under 30 minutes. Once the new part was installed I waited 2 hours for it to start making ice, before the ice maker can operate the bi metal thermostat has to reach approx 14 degrees F. This can take longer than an hour so you have to be patient. I checked mine with a volt meter probes inserted in the T and H test points on the front of the timer assembly. If you read a voltage of 110/120 volts it means the thermostat has not closed. If it takes more than 4 hours it could mean a bad connection so turn off the power and recheck the plug in harness connections. If you do not have a meter you can feel behind the timer with your fingers to see if the ice maker cup or bowl has water or ice in it. Turn off the power first.

It was super easy. I just cut the power to the fridge, took 3 screws out to remove the old icemaker, undid the power supply. Then I kept the supply wires, cover and ice maker arm and installed them on the new part. I plugged the supply wires back in, attached the new ice maker with a nut driver, installed the cover and arm. Turned the power back on and it's done. Just takes a few minutes!!!

bought a new ice maker (D7824706Q) and it was delivered in about two days. ordering was super easy but not as easy as the install of the ice maker. i simply removed the three hex head screws, two on top and one on bottom. unplugged the ice maker, removed front cover to remove plug(you must reuse), remove shut off arm off old ice maker. plugged plug back on new ice maker,put shut off arm on new icemaker. plugged new icemaker to frig and reinstalled the 3 hex head screws. it really took less than 15 mins.

first removed bottom screw. then loosened two top screws enough to lift and free icemaker. held unit out slightly from wall of fridge and unnplugged wiring plug, freeing icemaker. then took wiring harness and wire bail from old unit and installed on new icemaker. then plugged new unit in and attached to fridge. in about 30 minutes it started making ice. Has worked well since.

Removed three screws, unplugged the electrical from the side of the freezer. Transferred the electric and the ice level bar to the new unit. Plugged the unit back in, installed the three screws and that was it. The teflon on the unit was coming off which caused the leak and a fowl taste in the ice cubes. The new unit took care of this. Received the package in three days, wonderful!! Anyone could do this themself!!

disconnected wiring from ice maker to refer.
removed three mounting screws holding the ice maker to the refer. removed ice maker, removed the wiring from old ice maker and installed on the new one. installed new unit making sure that the water filler tube is in the correct location. plug the wire back to the refer. Done
