Icemaker often jams at exit point and ends up crushing the ice instead of dispensing whole icecubes. We have to unjam it with a plastic utensil to get it to dispense whole cubes. Why is this happening and how do we fix it?

Water keeps running in icemaker due to solenoid staying activated although ice bin is full of ice. What could be the problem?

Removing the existing filter by rotating as directed and then dislodging from 'docking' station proved difficult. Turns out, the old filter is under a bit of vacuum pressure and getting the unit to separate or release was a challenge.
I removed the drop-down outer housing by gently prying the sides of the two pivot pins at the rear. This gave me move 'room' to grip and slightly rotate then pull the old filter forward and away from the tight suction connection. I was concerned that I would be too forceful for the plastic assemblies and would break something; deliberate motions and a steady thought process on the problem helped disengage the darned old filter!
