GT17B6N3EV Maytag Refrigerator - Instructions

I took out the old one and put in the new one. For some reason the repair story associated with the ice bucket had nothing to do with ice buckets.

Needed ice maker bucket for extra fridge. Part came the next day, and worked perfectly.

Pried out old part with screwdriver. Unplugged. When new part came, just plugged it in and pushed the part into place.

I tilted the unit back enough to scew the new legs into the threaded holes.

I had to cut the bar to the right length with a hacksaw. The most difficult part was getting on the plastic supports/pins on either end. I'm not sure a hacksaw is the best way to cut a retainer bar, but it worked.

removed broken retainer with pliers and inserted new part. It was extremely easy---and I have ZERO mechanical skills.

Removed light bulb first, removed three screws, then remove plastic covering to disconnect three wires from temperature control element then replaced plastic covering, screws and lightbulb and was done. 15 to 20 minute job.

I simply measured for the correcy length, cut with a hacksaw, inserted the ends that attach it to the door and installed it on the door ..... simple.

disconnected el. power to fridge. pried out broken switch with small screwdriner and pulled out w/water pump pliers. installed new switch and pressed into opening.

looked up the part on line - ordered it and it took my husband 10 minutes to put it in.
