noise but no ice would be dispensed
Pulled out the ice tray, took whatever screws held the front on. The rest was pretty easy. The only thing I would say was a problem was taking off the cutters. The front spacer is threaded, and loosens by turning clockwise. Also, the shaft that runs along the side of the tray has a spring and keeper. Make sure yoiu remember how you take it apart.

Ice maker dispenses plastic parts (the auger)
I began by removing the ice maker and storing the ice. The part did not come with instructions so I began taking the ice maker apart. I ran into problems rather quickly so I went to the "part select" web site and there was a video with instructions on removal and reinstallation of the auger. It was a breeze after that. These guys are obviously professionals!

No ice coming out of the ice maker
Had to replace the auger drum. Went fairly smooth. The video that was linked next the part was a big help, especially when all the blades of the ice chopper came off of the shaft at once and I needed to get them back in the correct order. I did a freeze frame on the moment in the video to figure out the order.

Ice Bin Auger Drum cracked.
It was a breeze to remove and replace. Made even easier by the previous DIY guys posts. Make sure you turn the nut at the end of the shaft clockwise to loosen. Taking a picture of the blades for ice crushing before removal for future reference is a great idea. It wasn't hard at all. Just take your time.

No crushed/cubes from icemaker
We took the icemaker apart, and took pictures of how it looked before so we knew how to put it back together, we were really surprised how easy it was to put back together, I will be ordering other parts from this company, I got my part in 1-2 days by Fedex, I will be telling others about this company

Ice Bin Auger Drum was broken.
Removed screws, Ice maker blads, and broken Auger Drum. Reverced order and replaced with new Auger Drum.
The manufacture needs to change the part from a plastic Auger Drum to a metal aluminum Auger Drum. This is the second one I had to change in 4 years.

The auger drum had detached from the shaft (broke off).
I removed the external shaft that controls the ice grinder. Its spring loaded so you have to remember how to get it back together. I removed the screws that hold the cover in place. I removed the nylon nut that holds the drum and grinder on the center shaft. I replaced the drum and reversed the procedure.
