Ice maker flap opening and closing and all lights flashing on the refrigerator panel going crazy
First it was critical to have gone on-line to see that many other people have had the EXACT problem with their Maytag refrig. It went crazy at 830pm the Wed before Thanksgiving! There would have been NO WAY that we could have had that repaired with the holiday! I went to Parts Select and ordered the part that very night ( they were open and taking customer service calls until 11p EST). They had the part to us first thing Monday morning!

The installation was simple and they provided perfect instructions as to the programming of the code.

I cant believe that Maytag has not dome some sort of recall on the control board for these refrigerators. When we looked at the old one, there was moisture on the plastic panel and the 2 capacitors were corroded and bulging. We are going to try and get those replaced, so we have a spare board.

It was a whole lot cheaper to replace the board, and many would just resort to paying a repair bill of >$500.00 for the cost of a $200.00 part and about 15 minutes. You dont have to be an electronics major to fix this either!

This whole thing saved us well over $2500.00, as we are not buying a new refrigerator. I will say that we will never buy another Maytag at this point! All beware and might want to have an extra control board handy!

Replacing ice maker in freezer
First pull out bucket, then slide side plastic piece that hides wire harness on lower left side out.. Then pull /slide whole unit forward/out. Disconnect wire harness plug when doing so. Set old unit on table standing on end, put new unit right next to it. remove whole tray assembly from old unit, 3 screws on back. Use new wire harness that comes with new ice maker. put new tray assembly on end unit where the other came off. replace the three screws holding it to fan unit. remove on/off switch from old unit and put in new unit cover. Use small screw driver to remove old end switch cover. On off switch is pushed into place on new end cover. Purple wire on bottom plug and other on top. observe what you have and Just replace what you removed. Piece I did not use was flat plastic piece,flapper? This did not come with instructions, so basically I changed everything incl wire harness, put back together and put back in freezer. Ice bucket was full by next morning. Instructions and or video would have been nice. Tool;s used was a 1/4 in nut driver, small flat blade screwdriver.

Peg for the Deli Drawer Lid BROKE - right side
Honestly, so simple . Removed the fruit / veggie drawers, glass shelf and the supports for that shelf. Couple of screws and nuts and it was off. As stated before... the most "thought goes into attaching the linkage for the temp adjustment on the right side . GREAT opportunity to CLEAN the up the fridge a bit!! Parts Select made this such a no brainer. Their Customer Service was really an added bonus!!

No ice from ice maker
Checked if the cube maker still worked by putting some water in - yes!
Jumped the old valve to see if it would release water and nope.
Replaced the valve and everything is great.

You supplied the right part, the repair was simple and everything is working. No expensive repairman.

Plastic post that pantry cover rotated on broke off.
Very simple--Just remove all drawers, remove old end cap, remove slider from old end cap and put on new one. Screw on new end cap and replace drawers. Took about 10 minutes.

Socket set
The tab that is used to swing the cover on the lower tray broke off on one side.
First, I took out the glass tray along with the two slide out compartments that are part of that assembly. Then I used a small socket set to take out the three screws that hold the part in place and along with the part a plastic connector comes out with it that adjusts the temp of the bin area. Line up the holes on the slider and two screws come out that hold the slider to the part. Disconnet the plastic piece in the back that adjusts are flow (press down plastic holders) Reattach the slider, snap the plastic piece on the back and reassemble. Sounds complicated but once you are in there, its self explanatory.

chef's pantry lid was cracked
A jar was dropped on the chef's pantry lid and cracked the lid. I unhinged one side of the lid from the pantry drawer by gently pushing outward on one of the hinge pins. The lid slid out easily. I then reversed the process using the new lid and it went in smoothly. Be sure to align the lid so it rests on the shoulder of the pantry drawer. Simple task, no tools, and less than 5 minutes effort. The replacement part was perfect.
