Product Description

If the ice maker in your fridge is noisy or no longer dispensing ice, there may be an issue with the auger in the ice bucket. The auger works by spinning to pull and dispense ice from the bin down the ice chute and into your glass. Regular use of the auger over time can cause it to wear down, and if ice is allowed to build up it can also cause the auger to break. When replacing this part, you will need to remove the entire icemaker assembly from your freezer. Be sure to turn the ice maker off before beginning this repair. As the ice maker assembly is made of plastic, we suggest allowing it to warm up before starting any work, to prevent cracking and further damage. This is a genuine OEM part and is made of clear plastic and metal.

ice dispenser auger was broken
UTUBE was a great help. Your service is outstanding. I dropped the broken auger cutters and washers. The utube was clear enough for me to get the correct order for proper repair. Most of the hour plus was spent on this drop of parts.

Had hard time installing cutters correctly. Eventually got them watching the You Tube video.
Watched the video and did the repair following that to the letter. After we got it all apart, we discovered another broken piece, the Dispenser Crusher Cover. So, we abandoned the project and ordered that part. As I said, we had a difficult time with the cutters, but that is complete. Just waiting for the Crusher Cover.

Dispenser auger broke and would not push ice forward
Removed the ice tray. Remove 2 screws on the bottom and pull the front cover off the tray. Remove 1 screw on the shield at the top. Use putty knife and slide down each side to release the plastic clips. Pull up on the internal housing which will bring the blade housing and auger out of the tray. Using the Plyers, unscrew the nylon nu t (reverse threads). Make sure as you remove each blade that you keep them in order. Once all blades and bushings are removed start putting them on the new auger in the same order they were removed, tighten in place with the nylon nut and put it all back together.

All the same as the video, except on mine the tabs didn't push in, they are solid. Had to pry open the sides of sides of panel and jimmy the ice crusher housing out, a little at a time, one side and the other, till it came out.

Ice auger replacement
The ice choppers were very much attached to the auger as I was advised in a similar post. Used vice grips as suggested and removed the choppers and was very careful to keep them all together. After that, it wasn't too bad to put it all back together. Might consider just replacing the entire drawer in the future.

Broken Auger
Fairly straight forward. Remove 1 Philips screw on clear plastic ice guide on top and 2 Philips screws on bottom. Remove front cover. Remove 1 Philips screw on ice crusher arm and remove arm. Carefully pry out white plastic top to remove auger assembly. Remove metal clip and washer on end and remove ice crusher housing. Plastic nut on end of auger shaft is removed next, but it is threaded backwards. Remove Ice crusher blades by stacking them on the table and replace the auger shaft. Reassembly is in the reverse order.

Broken Ice maker Auger
Printed written instructions. Had difficulty as they omitted using a putty knife to push in the cover retaining tabs (the most difficult part of the job). I then found the video and it was very easy to follow the tabs were still very hard to keep pushed in , they kept popping back. Persistence paid off. Video was the way to go.

Auger had broke, needed to replace
The order confirmation email contained a link to a video showing step by step how to perform the replacement. I down loaded it to a tablet computer and stopped and restarted and reviewed as needed to properly replace the part. Without that video, I am uncertain of success, but if successful, would have been a much more stressful job.
