Supco RIM943 Modular Ice Maker Replacement Kit - Compatible with Major Brands - Easy DIY Installation for Refrigerators & Freezers - Perfect for Home, Office, and Commercial Use

This ice maker is working well and I have ice again. It fits perfectly and easy to install. I’m happy to have found one that fits my 20 year old Kenmore.I have a Frigidaire from 1970 that wont die and the icemaker finally failed. I bought this to swap it out. this works perfectly, however the adapters provided will NOT work for a Frigidaire . I had to use the old unit's wire adapter and attach to this unit then it worked. if your old wire adapter is damaged or you want to replace it then this unit wont work.The quality of this Icemaker coating where the Ice cubes are produced/frozen, will wear off over time. My last Ice Maker I also bought at Amazon I thought had failed due a bad new water valve I also bought which had flooded my freezer area. Turns out it wasn't bad but I still replaced it because the coating was starting to come off.Supco Ice Maker, Part #RIM943, fit my Maytag fridge perfectly. It appears that these ice makers are pretty much all the same, that are for sale on Amazon? My last unit, purchased from Amazon, lasted six years and was a different brand. It is a very easy installment, you can do this yourself. Three 1/4 inch bolts, unplug the electrical cable and the old unit is out. Use the bolts on the new unit, and the electrical cable, or this unit comes with new cables. I used a little level to make sure the unit was level.This was exactly the part I needed for my broken Whirlpool icemaker. This kit came with several different wiring harnesses and attachment clips to choose from, but in my case, I was able to unplug the old wiring harness and plug it directly into the new unit. I have a side by side and it was a little awkward to remove the old icemaker since there was not a lot of room to work. But I was able to do the whole swap in about 15 minutes. First, I'd advise you turn off the fridge. I removed the three screws holding on the old icemaker and then using a small slotted screwdriver removed the old wiring harness that plugged into the icemaker. I then removed a plastic bracket from the bottom that held the 3rd screw in place and attached it to the new unit. Inspect your old unit to see the if your unit requires a cutout where the water lines comes into the icemaker. This unit doesn't have the cutout, but it is prescored if you need a cutout. All you have to do is use a pair of cutters to remove the plastic so it will fit your fridge. I needed the cutout and while you need to be careful, it just takes a couple of minutes. Check your old unit vs the new unit and adjust the water level screw to match your old unit. Attach the wiring harness into the unit and screw the new unit in place. With three screws, mine was already level. If you had a 2 screw unit, you might want to visually make sure it was level. After turning the unit back on, it took mine about an hour before the thermostat was ready and it started making ice. Some folks have said it took theirs' a whole day to start, but in my case, within 24 hours I had a full ice drawer. Like I said, about 15 minutes start to finish. Update 12/8/2013 We've had this icemaker for about 18 months. Noticed a burning smell coming from the fridge and discovered that icemaker heater was still on and harvest bar kept cycling around. I unscrewed and unplugged icemaker and removed it from fridge. Removed the front cover and discovered the little plastic wheel had a large burn mark on it that was all the way through. Apparently something went south in the motor and I will have to get a new unit. This unit has worked great until now, but I will have to get a replacement. The last couple of weeks, the icemaker had been overfilling a little and the harvested ice was stuck together. I guess I should have paid attention to this since it was a precursor to the unit burning out. We have loved this unit, but just a cautionary tale to keep an eye on them.That estimate obviously doesn't include taking all the crap off the top of the fridge before you move it...Well, I read the reviews and watched the videos and decided I could handle this DiY project.That said, it wasn't all as advertized. Forget about it being a 15 minute project.It also doesn't include the time you'll need to spend cleaning/sweeping the floor under the appliance, or vacuuming all the cobwebs and other dirt off the walls behind it. And don't think I'm a super-neatnik, but the fridge hadn't been moved in a couple of years (why would it?), so this added 20 minutes or so to the project. (Glad my spouse wasn't there, or I'd have had to paint the walls back there...)Then, there was another 20 minutes to remove enough of the frozen food so I could work on the ice maker install. (You'll be amazed at the old stuff in there - packages of hot dogs from 2011, etc.)Finally, I got to the actual install. The removal of the old ice maker went fine. Don't remove the top two screws, just loosen them and lift the old unit off them. Needed a flathead screwdriver to disconnect the old wiring harness. No big deal.New parts fit fine. I saw the video, so I didn't need to read the instructions that came w/ the new parts. Not like the instructions were readable: a piece of 6"x7" paper that was about as thick as toilet paper. The "instructions" and illustrations were in 5 pt type. Not to worry - I saw the video...Install of the new unit went smoothly, until I realized that the piece you use for the lower screw to attach to the freezer wall as well as hold it up securely - it wasn't pre-attached to the new unit. So, I smacked myself for not reading the unreadable instructions, until I realized they didn't say anything about doing that before you screwed the side-mounts in.Aggravating, but after another 20 minutes, I got this lower brace installed without taking the new unit out and re-installing it. If you can't do this without taking the new unit out, it will only add another 5 minutes, unless you strip one of the screws; then you're screwed - royally.Got the appliance plugged back in, and pushed it back into position. Took another 10 minutes to clean up the floor and the counters, and put away the tools.Six hours later it started producing ice. Been cranking it out for the last week. No probs.Spouse thinks I'm a pretty handy wiz, so it's all worth it. For this, I'd give it six stars if I could.Just make sure you allocate enough extra time for all the things the video doesn't show you have to be done. Or maybe you're handier than me (wouldn't be hard...).The ice maker has been working well producing lots of large ice cubes and we are happy. Unfortunately I was unable to find an exact replacement, so I did have to cut the electrical quick connect fittings on the ice maker and freezer and connect the wires by hand. All wire colours matched up, and then shaved off some of the plastic base with a drill and a grinding disk so that the ice maker would mount nicely then screwed the ice maker onto the mounting base that sides in and out of the ice maker compartment of the freezer. If your a little handy and have two hours to spare you will probably save $400 labour. I attached two pictures of the refrigerator it’s a 2013 Maytag and the ice maker was $102.No issues with the installation. Working good.Got here sooner then expected, installed and enjoying some beautiful crushed icedid the job when our ice maker crapped out. easy to install.It was going to cost over $150 to buy at a local part supply shop, but less than half that on amazon. It did take a couple of weeks to arrive, but installed slick as can be, and was churning out ice cubes steady for the next day and a half until the bin was full. Definitely a good decision for me.
