2ET18GMXJW01 Whirlpool Refrigerator - Instructions

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!

removed old and installed new compartment door by hand.

I first replaced the switch and had no results, I then ordered the Light Socket Kit, and because I had the experience of removing the panel to replace the switch, it took a few minutes to remove the two screws behind the panel, removing the temperature control knobs and then releasing the face plate which is secured by tabs at the bottom. The kit came with extra connectors in case they were needed, but they were not in my case and so I pulled off the wires, pushed the old socket out and the new one in. Attaching the wires to the correct pins, I screwed in the light bulb to be sure that the fix was correct and determining that, I replaced the screws that held the panel in place. Voila, I'm a happy camper who found some outdated jars in the back corners of the newly lighted shelves.

I first removed the bottom screw then loosened the top two screws about 3 turns lifted an then slide icemaker out a couple inches then used small screwdriver to unclip the wire conector and removed icemaker then pluged new icemaker in and tightened top screws replaced bottom screw lowered metal arm and was done. les than 10 min. it has taken me longer to write this reply than it did to install the icemaker.

Using a screwdriver

Looking at the instructions it looked like I had to rewire the the plug in the adapter. As it turns out, you don't .Using a screw driver, I released the braket mount and the nut driver loosened the nut holding the tray to the wall. It came right off when you lift it straight up and the wire assembly was exactly the same as the original. All I did was plug in the new ice maker, Hang the assembly on the loosen nuts and tighten again and put the screw back in the bottom bracket that held it in place. I spent longer looking at the instructions than I actually did in the whole replacement time. By morning we had a good amount of ice. EASY>>

First 1/4'' nut driver was needed.Then i proceeded
to remove the nut just below the ice maker in a
white bracket. Then i loosen the two nuts at top of
icemaker,enough to lift it off the clips. Then that
allowed me to unplug the plug in rear socket. Then
you plug in the new plug that came with icekaker
and reattach ice maker making shore the two top
clips slide into each other. Do not tighten unto you
incert bottom screw in lower bracket.Make sure
icemaker is push all the way up ,then tighen all
screws.

First I unpluged the refriderator and removed the old ice maker. I then just simply installed the new ice maker. It was just that simple. The next morning I woke up with a full tray of ice.

I replaced the cracked crisper drawers with the new ones just by sliding them in the bottom of the refrigerator. This did not solve the problem because one of the drawers was smaller than the other one and left a big space. When I ordered the Crisper Drawers I looked at the part diagram and it looked to me that the drawers were two different sizes and thats what I ordered. I now need to order another large drawer to finish the repair.

Replacing the ice maker is no big deal. Just take out the old one and replace it with the new one. The replacement, however, didn't work very well. Seemed like its timer was off, so it would dump ice cubes before they were completely frozen. So, we go shells of ice cubes. Not good. Called Parts Select, advised them of the problem, and they agreed to replace the part. Could not be happier with the customer service I received from this company.

it was very very simple, it took only three screws
using socket set.
I removed the old one and put the new one in place , connect electric connection in 2 seconds snapping it toghether, that is all to it.
the hardest part is waiting on the ice to be made , which it took three to four hours for the first batch.
I am in the medical profession, IF I CAN do it , everyone CAN!!!!!!!!

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! : )

Took out the old, cracked, crisper unit and removed the white trim piece on the handle so that we could re-use it on the new crisper unit (which, in spite of the $90+ price tag did not come with new trim). The whole thing took 3 minutes to do.

Removed two screws, pulled the element out and disconnected the wire harness. Reversed the procedure and we were one.
Kept a close watch n the ice maker to make sure we didn't have another flood. The first time an ice cube stuck between the metal bale and the side of the freezer--we had about 50 gallon of water on the floor. Thought we had it fixed and a few days later another flood. Decided to replace the unit and it is working great...Hopefully no more floods.

I just removed three screws from the old ice maker and disconnected a single set of wires. All I had to do was reconnect the new set of wires and screw it back into the side of the freezer. Anybody could do this repair.
