Ice maker not making ice, ice tray overfills and cannot dump, ice sticks together and will not dispense
This repair is pretty straight forward. Just remove the 3 screws that hold the ice maker and bin assembly in, unplug the wire harness connector, then remove it from the refrigerator door. Once removed you simply need to remove 3 more screws that hold the ice maker to the auger/bin frame, remove the temp sensor, and a couple pieces of tape. Re-assemble the new ice maker in reverse order and you are all set. I think part of the issue I was having was due to mineral buildup in the tray as well so it had a hard time cracking and removing the ice. Not sure why it was overfilling, maybe the sensor was broken or had buildup on it as well. This solved all the problems I was seeing and now it makes great ice that doesn't stick together and form a bridge in the bin.

Ice crystals appearing on the face of the freezer draws
Part Select had a great video which made the repair easy, using a putty knife to start removing the freeze door gasket. Once removed the install is simple just snap the new gasket into the track, but start at the corner. Other company's have a video requiring you to remove the entire freezer compartment out of the appliance, unnecessary waste of time and labor.

Part was delivered broken
The past I ordered was broken upon delivery. I asked for a replacement and was refunded the charge. Tried to contact you but "due to covid" you aren't taking calls. Net result: I ordered the part from another source, got it, installed easily. Won't use you again.

The two deep shelf bins on the right hand door split from either the weight of the sauce bottles or manhandling by the cleaners.
1. I ordered a shallow bin which fit the left hand door by mistake as I couldn't enlarge the pictures. So when it arrived and I realized it fit the left door but not the right door I went back on line and had a chat with a wonderful chat person who ordered and sent the 2 right hand shelves., As it happens the drawings on the website were so small I did not realize that the bottom right hand shelf should have been shallower to accommodate the vegetable bin on the bottom of the refrigerator. So I removed the butter bin with the flip top and moved all the shelves up to clear the vegetable drawer and give me the same amount of storage as I had to begin with. I also think the replacement bins are a marginally heavier plastic and therefor may last longer.

The glass was ordered correctly. The part was too big for mt refrigerator. I tried to send it back, but I got no reply. I tried cutting the glass to size and it shattered. I wasted 60.00 and im disgusted with your company.

The hose that feeds the Ice Maker broke,right where it goes in the Fridge.
I actually didn't use what I got. Because there was all kinds of tubing coiled up in the door. We just fed the exsess all the way through the Fridge,and Bingo! It was done.

The old ice maker had cracked and broken, and would no longer make ice.
Six screws to remove the old one (I looked up the process on Youtube) and six screws had it back in tip top shape.
Three wire connections, two were plug in and one was a ground wire.
BTW: It was a 3 wire, not a 6 wire. I had ordered that by mistake and PartSelect made the return and replacement very easy.
