How To Replace A Whirlpool Refrigerator Ice Maker Motor
How does the refrigerator ice maker know how to go out in the middle of Summer? That's something to think about while you follow the instructions for how to replace a Whirlpool refrigerator ice maker motor. I'm writing about a Whirlpool refrigerator because that's what I have, that's what broke and that's what I fixed. These directions are for replacing a side-by-side Whirlpool refrigerator ice maker motor.
Step 1 Before you start tearing your Whirlpool refrigerator apart, check to be sure that the ice maker motor is the problem. First check the plastic water supply tubing to see if water is getting to the ice maker. Then make sure other parts of the refrigerator are getting power. Do the lights come on when you open the door? If these things seem to be working, maybe the ice maker is the culprit.
Step 2 HOLD IT! Before you start pulling things apart consider taking some pictures of the ice maker motor assembly. Don't forget you've got to put the thing back together. I use my cellphone for this.
Step 3 Hold on one more time! Please step away from the ice maker! Long enough to turn off the power and the water anyway. You probably don't have to turn either of them off but in an article like this I'm supposed be responsible and tell you to do it.
Step 4 O. k., go ahead and rip into it. First remove the plastic guard on front of the module. Gently pull the white plastic gear wheel from the axle on the front of the motor assembly. Then use your screwdriver to remove the screws on the corners of the ice maker motor assembly.
Step 5 Remove the screws that hold the motor assembly to the inside wall of the refrigerator. Then pull the motor assembly far enough off of the wall to expose and disconnect the power supply wiring harness on the side of the ice maker. Now the motor assembly should be detached. Now you're ready to take the motor assembly to the parts store to show the associate the exact part you want for your Whirlpool refrigerator. Or you could always order it off of eBay and wait for it to be delivered to your house.
Step 6 Reconnect the power supply wiring harness to the new motor module. Put the screws back in place on the corners of the motor assembly. Slide the new gear wheel onto the shaft. Reattach the assembly to the inside wall of the refrigerator. Put the guard back on and turn the water and power on. If everything is working properly, you should be able to see and/or hear the ice maker start to fill with water.
