JBSS42E22L00 Jenn-Air Refrigerator - Instructions

replaced electric control board, defrost for six hours. next day (24 hours) same problem, [email protected]

A snap! The part arrived the day after I ordered it. (How, I don't know). The video showed exactly what to do. I did it. Ice maker now works like a charm. Thanks.

My Ice maker would not release ice cubes, it thought the ice bin was full. So I got on You Tube and looked up how to videos. Partselect videos were the best that I found and the prices were low also. The whole repair took about 15 minutes.

First I removed the icemaker and the sensor boards by removing 6/7 screws. Next, I placed the new sensors into the emitter and receiver and re-installed the components...reset the icemaker and was all done!

Last time my icemaker broke I paid a contractor $225! This time I did it myself in 30 minutes and saved $150. And it was so easy my wife could'a done it......

Being 50 miles from the Sears with a 7 year old unit, I actually changed out both board (a kit) which was 9 screws. 3 screws in the outside panels, and 2 in the larger board, and 1 on the smaller board. Both both boards plug in. I also changed the actual ice maker which unplugs and slides out on my unit. Remove a single screw (1/4") on bottom to remove a plastic shield that covers/protects the plug in. A plastic arm lock is in the bottom guide tray, push it up first. Then unplug the unit. Three more 1/4" screws in bottom to remove the custom plastic mount. Then reverses the process to install the new ice maker. Total $175 plus 1 hour labor. In 6 months the unit will have paid for the repairs. I hope to get 5 years of service from the job

Unplugged appliance, removed both boards, 3 Phillips head screws in each, reinstalled new ones. Shortly after ice was coming.

I watched the video on your web site and did exactly what the video showed. I could not a get an appliance parts shop to tell me how to test the sensor, so I went on your site. It not only showed me how to change the sensor,it showed me how to test the sensor in my refrigerator. I have changed ice makers before, but never the sensor. Your site saved me $75 dollar service call and saved me $35 dollars on the part. Thank you very much!!!!

Used screw driver to pop out old switch. Used pliers to hold wire connection from fall back into slot on fridge. Inserted new swith into plug and pressed new switch back in place.

I first removed the icemaker service door by separating the door pins from the hinge sockets. Next, I removed a 1/4" screw from under the right side of the icemaker that retains the icemaker and a “U” plastic clamp. This clamp straps to the icemaker from behind. Then, after partially sliding the old icemaker out, I struggled somewhat decoupling the wire connector because it was frozen. After disconnecting the wire harness, I then removed the defective icemaker.
The next step was, with the same 1/4" ratchet wrench, I removed the 3 screws from the bracket on the underside of the icemaker. I then proceeded to attach the same bracket to the new icemaker.
Next, I connected the electrical connector at the right side. I struggled a little bit sliding the new icemaker in because the water cup assembly on the new part was taller than the old one and thus bumped into the water delivery tube.
You then reverse the procedure for installation.
Finally, before operating the icemaker I turn the icemaker switch on and turn off the power to the refrigerator for about one minute before turning it back on, while the freezer door was closed. Within 5 minutes, the icemaker was working properly and within 24 hours the ice bin had been filled.
Good Luck!

plugged the two wires in and snapped the switch into it's socket.

replaced emitter and receiver

Replaced sensors but still not making ice. Followed the Brown wire from the Water fill selenoid to the Ice Maker Module. Take the three screws off the Icemaker Gearbox and there was a severely Crusty Connection. It cleaned fairly well and Presto.....ICE!!!

I installed the 2 circuit boards. Real easy. Did not fix problem so going to have to check further.

I had several times tried to get the old switch out but with no success. Ordered the "repair kit" and followed directions for removing old switch (there is a plastic spring clip on one side). Easy to unplug the old switch, plug the leads into the new one, snap the new one into place. Took about 5 minutes total--piece of cake. I wish I'd thought to try this years ago when the old switch began to fail.

I checked the trouble shooting guide with the refrigerator and all signs pointed to the Electronic control boards that sense when the ice tray is full. After reading what other customer posted on this site I ordered the parts. I received the parts in two days time and had a harvest of ice within minutes of installing it. Thanks PartSelect. Scott
