The repair went easily after watching the video, took me less than an hour to complete the repair.

Consulted You Tube. Took off old gasket. Easy. Put on new one after getting it warm. The track on the new gasket did not sit properly. Took multiple attempts but finally worked. Size was perfect but the gasket color was different than original and therefore, different from the refrigerator door. No tools required.

This was the last step of serial repairs to the ice crusher portion of the ice maker. I have practically replaced the entire assembly. All the blades were installed incorrectly (at factory? Afterwards?) and had bent. That caused problems for other parts. I hadn't noticed that the housing was weakened and my prior repair I did something dumb and the door on housing wasn't closing properly, so it snapped. I bought a new housing and installed it. My #1 tip is WATCH THE VIDEO! There are some things that have to be put together just so. You need things to line up and be under slight tension from springs. Last time I had it under too much tension. The door got in the way of the blades and broke. So this time I was more careful to do it correctly. Everything is working perfectly now. This design is clever, and I feel like I can diagnose and fix it again in future. "Steve's" instructional videos are a huge help. He shows exactly what to do.

The repair instructions were suspiciously easy sounding- but in actuality- right on! I am not a DIY-er , but I did it! The old gasket came off fairly easily and the new one went right on! No tools needed! There wasn’t an immediate ‘suction/seal’ when I closed the door, but Grok said that was normal, it may take a little time… Sure enough- in the morning it was tight! That’s been 2 weeks and so far- so good!

The repair was quick and easy. Just install the ordered bracket ( hinge ) on the top refrigerator door and cover. I had all the screws and cover but somehow the original bracket was missing...hummm

Removed ice maker bin...removed screws and housing and reinstalled all...very easily completed.

First I defrosted the entire unit, both sides for 24 hours. Restarted, I now have water dispensing. (It had apparently frozen) Next I took out the ice crushing part and took it apart, (a few screws) by removing the broken floppy piece; the small plastic floppy door that allows ice to crush, replaced this small piece, rather than replacing the entire big plastic piece that I ordered. Used a slot screw driver removed the old floppy piece that was broken and removed the same piece from the new one and switched them out. Reassembled the entire unit (a few screws), put the ice back in and it works great. I got the instructions for taking apart this from this site, however, it was fairly easy to figure out. Just be patient with the plastic parts.

I followed the YTube video. The ice maker doesnot crush ice. The auger moves the ice to the dispenser. Is there a position for metal blades when assembling auger?

i watched the video very simple repair

The gaskets aren’t really attached, they are just wedged into a small notch the goes around the entire door. So you can just pull the old one off with no tool. The new one arrived looking very bent and twisted but if you heat it with a hair dryer it goes back to its shape. When installing…You start in the corner and work your way around with a butter knife and hair dryer and it eventually sits into the notch. We watched a video on YouTube, it was easy to find a video and easy to do with two people and no tools or experience. Takes a few days for the gasket to feel fully settled into the notch

The first order arrived in a huge box and there was no scew to be found, the box had wholes in it. I was given a refund and told to order again.



The repair did not happen and the set screw which was actually recieved the second time was returned because it was the wrong size.

Pulled door seal put and pushed in new seal, icing formed on fridge side lower return vents, had to fully chip away, compressor running and stopping as normal.

I had no problems. Screws arrived sooner than expected. It was a very simple installation. Very pleased with both the product and service.
