All Installation Instructions for General Electric Refrigerator BISW42EKB

failed light switch

I started removing the switch by prying on the right side with a screwdriver, when it emerged enough I used pliers to finish removing it. I then unpluged rhe wires from the bad switch and pluged them on the new switch and "poped" it into the hole.

Bucket was broken at the back where the auger turns.

Removed the bucket assembly from the freezer. Remove the four screws holding the front cover on the bucket. They are on the backside of the front cover. Installed the old front cover on the new ice bucket with the four screws.

Needed complete ice bucket assembly

Since Parts Select was unable to cross reference to another part I myself checked out all other web sights and did my own cross reference. I found a matching compatable ice bucket number and bought that ice bucket from part select I got it quickly and put it in.

rusty auger tainting ice

It was so easy! I seldom attempt any household repair because I have a husband that can fix anything, but he was not available. One screwdriver & remove 4 screws attaching the existing front to old auger/bucket. Line up the screw holes on new bucket with old front, put the 4 screws in through those holes tighten screws & I was done.

auger and bucket neded to be changed because of rust which caused the auger and other metal parts to rust which created an unpleasant odor in ice and freezer. to

The part arrived promptly but was defective. Upon learning of the problem by PartSelect a new part was shipped and was delivered incredibly quickly. Installing it was easy and took only about 5 minutes. We were pleased with the speed in sending the parts and the ease of installation. We will call on them again if necessary because of their good business practices.

Bad odor and rusty ice cubes. Auger had rusted and should have been covered by GE

Removed the old ice bucket assembly and dumped the contents. Removed four screws from the face plate and reinstalled it to the new ice bucket kit. Back in business.

The silver plating on the auger was coming loose, rusting and getting in the ice cubes.

All I had to do was remove four (4) screws from the old ice bucket assembly to remove the front cover and attach it with the existing screws to the new ice bucket assembly. It was a very simple repair. Thanks for the expedient delivery and the exact replacement part that I needed.

Rusty Auger

The parts recommended were exactly what I needed. The comment section on not paying attention during the removal were very helpful. I took a picture before totally taking everything apart. Thanks for the added comment.
