i took the icemaker out at lunch today. takes about 5 min.
it is identical to the ones that the parts place shows for my fridge....except the plastic piece where the water hose comes in is different. i will either have to take both units apart and change that piece or fabricate something. on mine, the icemaker is mounted to the back of the fridge, not the side. so the hose comes in from the back of the unit and not the side.
the plastic piece is made on mine so you could either break out the side or the back for the hose to go into. on the new ones, it assumes the hose comes in the side and has a hole already there.
no matter what place online i look at it comes up with the same icemaker (a few different part numbers that all cross reference each other)
russ, when you replaced the icemaker, did you run into what i am talking about with the water tubing where it enters the icemaker itself being different?
