meatal parts were rusted
the part is fairly easy to take apart, however pay close attention to how things fit and go together. It took me sometime to figure the reassembly out due to my lack of close attention to taking it apart. other than that it is simple.
This is a 25 year old unit. The ice bucket had warped over time causing the face plate to move forward of its ideal position pulling the entire assembly out of the drive. Removed dispensing unit face assembly. Removed drive shaft assembly. Replaced all washers. Reversed old broken drive cup. Married old drive cup to new drive cup...lining up drive slots. Drilled 6 ea. 3mm holes evenly spaced around circumference into the face of the old drive cup. Fastened drive cups together in vice and with C clamp...then using phillips head screws installed 3 ea. from opposing entry points on each side of this homemade shaft extender. This "mechanism" increased the effective length of the dispensing shaft assembly allowing for a proper fit of the drive shaft to the motor drive connection. Unit now works perfectly. Total cost @ $40.00 and two hours work which would have taken less than one hour if I had remembered to install the ice bucket seal the first time. New ice bucket would have cost @ $185.00. Home warranty does not cover ice makers or any of the associated parts. DIY...it isn't that difficult.
Detached the original bucket from the dispenser face plate by removing all screws. Must remember where all the screws go. Attached new bucket to original dispenser face plate. Very easy.

The ice maker auger will not stay in the back support cup. I just purchased your part number wr2x7905 after looking at diagrams and getting a recommendation. But alas, this seems to be the bucket support at the outside end.What can I get to make the auger stay in place in the rear of bucket where it connects to the drive bar?
For model number TBX25RLG
Hello Earl, Thank you for the question. I suggest changing the Ice Dispensing Drive Cup, PartSelect Number PS297895. It could be worn and not holding the auger. Hope this helps!
How does this rubber piece attach to the rear of the ice maker
For model number Part number ps298716
Hello Rocco, Thank you for the question. The Seal just slips onto the lip of the Ice Bucket. The Lip of the bucket fits into the Channel of the Seal. We hope this helps!
