Water filter a bit stubborn but resolved. Other questions ~ see below
When reading instructions, I noticed it said to run water through the water filter. I don’t have a water dispenser ~ I only occasionally make ice. So how often should I change, Barely used. The red light will go on, can I just ignore it?

The new motor mount screw holes were not threaded.
I had to tap the screw holes with a 8/32 tap so that the screws would not bind.

From day one the installer did not tighten the screw in the freezer handle. It finally came apart. They didn't leave me the Allen wrench for my fridge.
Simple tightening of the screw with the right tool.

no water flowed to the ice maker
1. Turn off water in line to refrigerator. 2. disconnect hose from refrigerator. 3. Remove back cardboard panel at bottom of refrigerator. 4 Remove 2 screws holding in the valve assembly at bottom right. 5. best way I found to remove hoses (all color coded) is to cut with razor knife at the white collar. cut clean and square. 6. disconnect electrical (also color coded) 7. connect hoses to valve assembly by pushing hose firmly into hole. If you are familiar with PEX then this is the same. Reconnect electrical. Reconnect to refrigerator... 3,2,1 your done. It will take a couple cycles to get the air out of the lines.
