KFIS20XVMS00 KitchenAid Refrigerator - Instructions

Removed two screws on outer face plate and set aside the face plate after disconnecting from power supply. Remove dispenser paddle which had broken and replaced with new part. Reattached power connections and reattached the face plate. Relatively easy process.

Repair was simple and just as described by several others on this site! From finding the part, ordering, quick shipping and instructions, PartsSelect made this job a breeze to complete.

First I had to figure out how to get the old unit out so I could work on it. The three screws that others wrote about were the ones that hold the motor in place. There are 3 screws holding the ice maker in the frame, along with one screw covering the electrical connection. The electrical connection was difficult to unplug because the locking tab was on the back side of the connection and with no room to work in the freezer it didn't become apparent until several frustrating minutes went by. There were no instructions provided, the picture on the ordering page showed the complete ice maker, and for $80 you get a printed circuit board with a small round item which must be the motor/timer control. The two plastic parts for moving the ice from the ice maker were included but not replaced because I didn't notice them until I had finished replacing the ice maker back in the freezer and wasn't going to start over again.
Once installed, there wasn't any noise, even of water flowing like the old one, could not tell if the unit was working or not. In the morning there was new ice in the bin indicating the repair had been successful. This is like anything else, if you have done it before it is a 5 minuter job but when you have to look at it and try to figure it out it takes a bit longer. All in all, it was simple enough, I was expecting a complete ice maker unit like was in the picture when ordered but only the motor module was actually needed.
We have another refrigerator/freezer that has an icemaker that is over 20 years old and has never been repaired, it is a Sears model though, probably made by Whirlpool or someone else.

Removed old gasket and installed the new one. Used a hairdryer to smooth out the edges.

Replaced the control board. Called another web site and for $15 got the twelve step code to set the new control board.

Still no cooling. Same issue as before.

Sears coming again tomorrow to try again.

I had to replace the entire door because the plastic tabs holding the window in place snapped off. I just opened the door to see how it was held in place, released the old door and installed the new one. Job complete in less than a minute.

Once the part arrived, which was very quickly BTW..all I had to do was remove the old filter and then just screw the new one into place....Now I just happen to be both female and blonde but was able to get the job done in less than 15 minutes (that includes opening the box) and with very little water dripping from the old filter!!! Looks like I could work as the Maytag repair woman soon!!

I got really tired of taking food out covered in icicles and stabbing a huge block of ice out of the bottom. Turns out all he needed was a little wheel with cogs and I looked up the sticker model number on this site and clicked the part of the fridge. So simple, wish I would’ve done it sooner.

The old plactic ring can be removed with flat bladed screw driver, starting on the right side prying it up worked best for me. The new seal snaps in only one way take your time to get it wright.

I changed the bulb but it still didn’t work. I ordered a bulb holder and replaced it and it works properly now. It was an easy repair, remove the bulb, gently pry the bulb holder out with a screwdriver and snap the new one in.

It was useful that under the description of the part in the catalog, it showed that this part was often used to repair this issue. The service was great and the delivery was fast.

I unpacked the glass and slipped it into the shelf. Done.
What was more impressive was the delivery time. I ordered the glass at about 12:30pm one day and the glass was at my door by 9am the next morning. Even my husband was impressed with that.

I fumbled a large jar of olives that hit the deli tray, inside lining and top of bottom freezer drawer before making it to the floor. The deli tray cracked, a gash was in the white bottom lining and the SS top of freezer drawer was dented. Service and delivery was excellent, fast and installation was a matter of popping the tray cover off and snapping in the new one. Now, if I could only change out the liner myself.........

I removed the drawers and glass shelf that are over the pantry drawer as well as the small piece that allows the drawer to pull in and out. Then I simply snapped the old one out, snapped the new one in, replaced everything I had removed and Done! Took less than 10 minutes.

Pulled old gasket off door put new one in channel on door pushed gasket in channel less than 10 minutes

Easy repair, nothing complicated.
