My freezer is getting worn refrigerator is ok. Freezer is 22 Refrigerator is at 37
For model number KBFC42FSS00

Hello Alfonso, Thank you for the question. I suggest testing the Thermistor, PartSelect Number PS11739132. You can test the Thermister with a Multi Meter, At 70 degrees the resistance should be 9.3K ohms, 90 degrees would be 7.7K ohms. at 100 degrees would be 6.2K ohms, and 120 degrees would be 4.3K ohms. If the thermistor reads outside of range then it needs replaced. Hope this helps!

Ice Maker stopped working
With socket wrench un-screwed the 3 screws and pulled out the ice maker assembly.

Pulled off white plastic end-cap and noticed the plastic gear disk had snapped off (sub part # R0167202)

However, it is all-one-part of the motor assembly unit # w10190935 (part # PS2341896) which must be ordered as a complete part.

Unscrewed the motor assembly (3 screws) with phillips head screw driver.

Screwed in the new unit.

Placed ice maker back into location and tightend the bacing srews.

1 hour later ice was falling!
