58RIAD Whirlpool Refrigerator - Instructions

My husband and I worked together using a video I found online as a guide. The part went in easily within less than 30 minutes. I can't believe we waited so long! Within a few hours the ice maker was making cubes after a 2-3 year hiatus! Saved the estimated $280-$360 cost of the appliance repairman. We are VERY pleased.

Placed ice maker control switch to OFF position. Removed wiring connection cover from ice maker. Disconnected wiring harness from ice maker. Removed old ice maker control and motor by removing motor cover and three screws. Installed new ice maker control and motor with the three screws and cover. Reconnected wiring harness and wiring connection cover. Placed ice maker control switch back to ON position.

This repair was so easy I can not believe I waited so long to do it. What was I thinking?

We had to take the cover off, remove screws, take off old control and replace items in reverse order. We had the arm in the wrong position at first and it raised the arm and shut off. We redid the position of the arm and everything has been fine since.

Removed the single screw holding the ice maker in Place and unlugged wire ,then removed cover off of the end of ice maker and the three screws holding the actuator onto ice maker and installed new one. Reinstall ice maker......works great

I removed three screws holding unit to the freezer wall. Disconnected power cable. Removed three screws in motor assembly. Detached the old motor assembly. Attached new assembly with same three screws. Re-mounted unit to the freezer wall and re-connected power. One hour later, I had ice again.

Installed new motor control assembly, simple 6 screw remove and replace. Really a no brainer.

I researched the problems on Kitchen Aid ice makers and found that this part failed within four years of service, took a chance and ordered the "Icemaker Control and Motor Assembly", it was the cause.

removed cover, removed (1) screw that holds unit in place, disconnected power connectors, removed (3) screws that held assembly together, attached new part with (3) screws, re-installed unit.

Pried out ice blade bar and removed broken water fill cup and replaced with new one.The whole repair costs $9.52 So I saved $ 190 over the cost of Appliance man visit!
It would have been $150& $50 for visit to replace ice maker unit.

This was very easily repaired in about 15 minutes and only using a phillips head screw driver to remove 3 screws. The plate pulls off easily and there are no wires on this particular ice maker, only male and female clips . You may have to jiggle the metal wire ice on-off bar. The new face plate is all one piece and is installed the same way very easily. Plugged the refrigerator back in and had half a bucket of ice the next morning!!!

After reading solutions to my problem on your website I ordered the part which fixes 50% of the problems. When I got back after Christmas the part had arrived. I removed the Icemaker and replaced the part. It took aprox. 20 minutes for the job. It was easy. Now we have ice cubes again.

followed instructions from Partselect on- line video.
