old ice maker didn't work
3 screws and plugged in the new ice maker. It was slightly difficult to unplug the old ice maker and place the plug in the new ice maker. Still really easy. New ice maker works great!

Stopped making ice
It was very fast and easy. Two screws to take of the ice door cover. the ice maker itself just slid out and all I did was disconnnect the wiring harness. Unscrewed the plastic bottom case and screwed onto the new one. Attached the harness and slid it back in.

The plastic water fill tube got cracked when we moved. I called a parts company and they told me they couldn't just sell me the tube I would have to buy a whole kit for about $50 dollars. I decided to glue the tube. It worked for a while then it started leaking. So I thought I would have to buy
I hand screwed the fill tube into the water tube and stuck it into the freezer hole. I screwed the fill tube to the back of the refrigerator.
Thanks so much! You saved me a bundle!!

Ice maker stopped making ice
This was an easy repair.
First I turned off the breaker that supplies power to the refrigerator, then I followed instructions to remove the old ice maker. I removed the bottom screw and loosened the two top screws and it came out easily.
The only unexpected problem I ran into was that the connection at the refrigerator end was 'hard wired', i.e., the wiring harness was not removable from the freezer.
After disconnecting the wiring harness from the old ice maker, all I had to do was plug the wiring harness into the new unit, slide it into place, then replace the bottom screw and tighten the two top screws.
Turned the power back on and had ice within 1/2 hour! : )

The old icemaker corroded around the heating element causing a leak into the ice bin. Then it would freeze the remaining ice in the bin into a block of ice.
Unplugged the fridge. Got a light to shine on 3 small screws. Used a pair of channel locks to get the pigtail wiring harness off and the old one was out. Put the new one back in, plugged in the wiring harness and heard the ice bin getting it's first new ice a few hours later.

New inlet valve. very easy. Part select was great. I first ordered a new ice maker, this did not fix the problem. Part select allowed me to return it and get the right part. The repair vidio was great.

No ice
After diagnosing the ice maker wasn't working, I got the model & serial number of the refrigerator. Picked the ice maker online by picture, that was a first. Three screws to take the old one out and replace the new. Written directions confirmed there is no manual cycle button on ice maker. Waited a couple hours and checked it, there was ice! Everybody was happy.

We had a water inlet line spring a leak
First I tried repairing the but that did not work, so I looked online and found partselect.com, put in my part number and wammo! There it was, the same exact water inlet line, and reasonably in-expensive. I ordered it and it got here pretty quick.

Old ice maker had cracked casing and was loosing teflon coating from cube tray
Followed instructions from online video. Used the opportunity to clean the freezer compartment really well. Also discovered that water solenoid valve was failing and have since replaced that also.
