3638597780 Kenmore Refrigerator - Instructions

A friend had no problem getting the new ice maker in. But then the problems started. The ice maker works great. But when the water fills the ice maker it squirts water onto the side of the freezer and ice sickles form. So we watched and decided the hole was too large so used a piece of plastic. That helped to cover the hole. But some water is still entering the freezer and not all going to the ice maker. The only other thing we can think to try is to use epoxy to try to close that place. A simple job has turned into a big headache. I wish they made the ice maker like the original one.

ordered the replacement ice maker. what I received was not an exact fit appication. I had to alter the screw holes for the mounting brackets. I had to use an extension cable (provided) to connect the the fridge. The point where the two cables were connected resulted in a cable that was not only unflexible but too long and I had to alter the ice maker unit to make the cable fit. I am still not completely happy due to the ice maker inconsistancey. Sometimes we have ice sometimes not. In fact, I had to take the whole unit out again today because tow cubes became lodged in the tray and would not allow the tray to fill which resulted in no ice for quite sometime. So, right now I am not too thrilled with the replacement part I received.

i did every thing according to instructionwhich was simple but it did not cover how to use the extension electrical plug-in and where to put the extra cord so the tray would go back in

Transferred ice supply to another freezer. Removed ice maker unit from freezer and studied assembly. Removed the 5 screws holding the bucket in place while keeping track of which screw went where. The only positional component to remember was the motor control pivot retainer. Wiggled and fiddled to remove the old bucket. Wiggled and fiddled to put the new bucket in place. Replaced the 5 screws, dumped the reserved ice back into the bucket, and returned the ice maker unit to the freezer.

Remove the 2 mounting screws, remove broken rail, install new rail and install 2 screws. I was finished in about 2 minutes.

Trust me when I say that I am not a very handy person. It took only a matter of seconds to remove the broken slide rail, took 2 screws out. I found the part easily on the website, placed the order and the part was in my house in 2 days. My 12 year old son and I replaced the slide rail in a matter of seconds-required only the same 2 screws to secure in place. We replaced the glass shelf, slid the draw into place and now it is as good as new! A very easy repair!

Loosened 2 screws unplugged cable. Plugged in cable adapter on new unit. Plugged in to receptical, hung on 2 screws, tightened 2 screws. Done

I neeeded an ice bucket for a refrigerator that was given to me. I wish if I could have oder the whole part as a whole.So, this is what I did. I order the Auger and Ice Bucket Assembly.Later, I realize when I received the part that I also needed the Cover bucket assembly and the Ice storage door.Now I do not know if when I get the rest of the parts if it also comes with the screws that hold the cover bucket on or if I have to order the screws separate.

The part that I needed was no longer availabe on other sites. Found Partselect and they had the solution, only took 4 screws to replace auger-bucket assy now ice dispenser works good as new!!

removed broken rail and replaced two screws and the job was complete...took longer to clean the botom of the refrigerator than replace the part

Removed the ice from tray and removed screws from face of ice bucket. Reinstalled screws and face on new ice bucket. Inserted new ice bucket in position.
That's it all done.

the ice bin was a cinch with the complete part ordered from Partselect.com. Just had to replace the old faceplate onto the new part put the ice bin back in the freezer and voila. Didn't really need to replace the thermostat but did anyway with the defrost timer and then the thing started keeping temperature again. Thanks a bunch! I just hope the refrig will hold up a few years longer!

Since I ordered the right part thanks to the website, installing was easy. I just put the part in place and screwed the two screws into place. It took less than 2 minutes.

I removed the ice tub. Removed the screw on the left side that holds closed the section where the icemaker plug is connected. Disconnected the plug. Then removed the bottom right screw. I was then able to remove the Icemaker by unhooking it from the bcak freeze wall. I disconnected the icemaker from the fan gaurd. Removed the icemaker cover. unscrewed the 3 icemaker screws and opened up the chamber. removed the old Ejector Blade Drive Cam by removing the outer srew that hold the gear to the icemaker. changed the cam with the new one and reassembled everything.

removed old ice maker, obtained part number from it. went on line ordered new ice maker at 10:45 in the morning, at 3:00 the nexte after noon new icemaker was in hand. took about 5 minutes to install new ice maker. works perfect. would do business again with this company.
