FRS24XGCW1 Frigidaire Refrigerator - Instructions

Removed 2 screws that hold ice maker in place. Unplugged and took out of freezer. Used the screws I took out to put new ice maker in. Plugged in the power and in 2 days I had a full ice bin and haven't had any worries since. Should have replaced the broken one along time ago but thought that the process was harder than this. Very easy and suggest this to anyone having ice maker issues. Less than $100 and never have to buy ice for the house again.

Unplug refrigerator , loosing two screws. Lift ice maker up to remove from position. Disconnect electrical connection. Reverse procedure to install new ice maker.

A little research told me the hum plus no cooling was either the compressor or the relay. I ordered the new relay and put it in but it didn't fix the problem. I ended up having to buy a new fridge, but it was worth the $30 gamble to see if I could fix it on the cheap and it saved me the money a service call would've cost. Pretty easy installation, just in a tight space on my model.

removed ice maker storage holder and then remove two philip screws and unplugged four pin connector. removed ice maker and installed new one . very easy to do

I found that the fill solenoid for the ice maker was down to a drip when energized. I ordered from this site and replaced. now plenty of water, but the ice maker would just stall and jump teeth. The heater which heats the ice up to free it from the mold was defective. Ordered from this site, and now working great.this sitet has good pricing, and the help illustration is great, and explains the sequence of events. This made it easy to troubleshoot. This refrigerator has not give a problem in over 11 years. The problem is "the ice maker". I have replaced it 6 times.

When I ordered the parts there was a video for each part. I saw all 3 videos which were most helpful. We had struggled with these drawers for years. Since our refrigerator was over 20 years old I was afraid that replacement parts would no longer be available. To my surprise they are still available. Now I wish I would have looked for the replacement parts sooner.
The only tools I used were a nut driver and a putty knife. Just like the video showed! A big THANKS for the videos!

Followed on line video. Also water supply tube on fridge was full of ice. You can pull it out and run hot water on it to clear.

The instructions that came with the replacement icemaker were very complete, in particular concerning the small levelling bracket on the bottom of the icemaker, because the old bracket needed to be removed from the old icemaker and transferred to the new one. This part of the installation might not have been obvious, so I was glad to see it clearly outlined in the instructions. The old icemaker was removed by loosening two nuts and detaching the electrical connector, and the new one was installed in its place. Fairly simple, the whole job took about 45 minutes because I work slowly and carefully. A more confident person could probably have the new one installed in 15 minutes. Only drawback: about three to four weeks after installing the new icemaker it has begun making a loud clicking noise on occasions. It is a repetitive (5 second interval) clicking, and only happens for about a minute every few hours and then stops. I am concerned that it might be gears prematurely wearing out and slipping. I guess I'll know in a few weeks if this one stops making ice.********************************************* Update: after about 9 months the new icemaker quit working and will need to be replaced. I removed the front cover from the icemaker and could clearly see that the teeth of one of the plastic gears were worn out and no longer meshing with the opposite gear. The drive gear was just spinning in place and making no contact with the larger gear.

Shut down Freezer/refrigerator. Disconnected water piping. Extracted old water valve. Replaced with new one. Turned on water and power.
Result, Ice cubes.

Removed everything from the door. Removed all the screws from the door and took off the door panel. Laid panel out and fit gasket on it and then put it back on starting at the top. Used hair dryer to remove kinks from gasket from shipping. Everything went well. I left the door attached to the refigerator. There would be no way in my opinion to put the gasket on by just loosening the screws as the instructions stated. Its just too hard to get the gasket in that way. But taking the inside door panel; off worked well.

I watch the how to repair video on line and the repair went very quick and easy.It was just like the video,no hidden suprises.

Removed old pan and cleaned all surfaces and reinstalled new pan.

I used a small screwdriver to pry the tabs of the front glass panel loose, and then slid it upward and out of the broken storage drawer. Then I slid the panel into the front slots of the new drawer and pushed in an evenly downward manner until it snapped in place. It was an easy task and now we have a new drawer that slides smoothly.

loosened 2 screws with 1/4 inch nut driver, disconnected electric connection lifted old ice maker out, replaced it with new one hooked up electric plug tightened 2 screws

I used a flat head screwdriver to pry open the front of the socket as I pushed the socket toward the freezer side. I unplugged the two wires connected to the socket then re-connected the two wires to the new socket and popped the new socket back in. I then put a new light bulb in and we had light again in the fridge.
