The circulation pump assembly, used in a free-standing ice maker, delivers water from the water tank over the top of the evaporator plate. It does this to form the ice that drops onto the cutting grid. The first step in installing this part is to remove the chute, ice scoop bracket, water pan, and head cap screw that holds the plastic cover over the pump. Refer to the manufacturer-approved installation instructions for further guidance and accuracy. Make sure to disconnect and unplug the ice maker from the power source before installing the circulation pump. Remember to wear gloves to protect your hands.

Ice Maker Water Pump and Motor
After several attemtps, I finally reached one screw and bolt it immediately. Rest was piece of cake.
What I liked most, is that you don't need to do any wiring connections, because it uses a simple plug-in connector that goes in at the same time when you bolt the new pump.
What it surprised me, was that my machine it's over 20 years old, and the new replacement water pump it's the very same design !!!
Last night I fixed it, and today I'm enjoying again fresh ice.
One plus for PartSelect : I inherit this machine and didn't have an Installation & Operation Manual,and PartSelect have it On-Line, so I printed it, and I believe I'm ready another 20 year period of fresh ice!
Thanks a lot PartSelect !!! Read more...

The water pump broke (too old).
I removed the three nuts that hold the old pump, easy. Next step was to replace with the new pump, tricky, because it goes real deep in the machine and my arms barely reach it. After several attemtps, I finally reached one screw and bolt it immediately. Rest was piece of cake.
