The best part of the repair was how easy it was to find and order the part.

installed new parts

First I removed the 6 screws and then 2 more--being carefull to take cap off inside to nremove metal blades--be sure to keep in order--taking ba digital picture helps at this point--make sure to put back nin reverse order after replacing washer and new auger--went smooth thanks appliance parts repair service forum--Rick--Enjoy your own repair!!!

removed 9 screws, removed all parts, laying them in order, so they would be easy to replace.
reassembled in order I had removed them placing the new auger drum in place of broken one.
replaced ice container in freezer, poured in a few ice cubes them crushed them.

Once I removed the ice bin from the freezer section of refrigerator and removed all the necessary screws was able to remove the auger drum, but had some difficulty in reinstalling the crusher blades in the dispenser. After several tries, got it right and dispenser is performing like new.

Not so easy as others have described. I kept the parts off the auger together in my hand as I replaced the drum. Thanks to the people who mentioned the nut being left handed. Taking a picture before dis-asembly saved me. I would never have gotten it back together otherwise.

removed six screws removing the cover and exposing the shaft & auger.

I then had to remove the snap ring & undid the end nut that has left handed threads.removed the 6 auger plates and then replaced all parts in reverse order of their removal.

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.

Just like the video showed me.It still does not work. Have to turn it off and on to make it start up.I also replaced thermostat in freezer. Does not work.

Ordered part, watched video. Had a problem with reassembly of ice crushing assembly, did a re-do as one of the blades had dislodged from the drive shaft!

This was not a hard repair. Just remove all the screws and slide out the old Auger drum. It is always good to take a picture first incase you have any problems putting it back together. Be careful to put the ice crushers back in the same order and make sure you look at how the "door spring" connects before pulling it apart.

Repair was easy enough, take apart and put it back in reverse.

looked at the schematics from online

removed ice bin from freezer then removed front from ice bin then all i had to do was remove e clamp from end of shaft that made it possible for me to remove the ice crusher parts then slide off the drum. all that was left was to put back together.
