Our ice machine is draining the fill reservoir before making ice? It will make a couple of "batches" before it starts acting up.
For model number KUID308ESS1

Hi Amber, Thank you for your question. If the ice machine drains the fill reservoir before making ice, the circulation pump may be faulty and will need to be replaced. We hope this helps!

Not producing much ice. the slab of ice does go on the coils and the coils seem warm, the bid is cool. i did clean it today.
For model number KUID308ESS1
PartSelect logo
Hello Amber, thank you for getting in touch. According to our research, the issue is most probably with the main control board, part number PS12346592. It manages the functions of the ice maker such as freezing and slicing the slab of ice, and dropping cubes into the ice container. We would recommend replacing it to fix the issue. Glad to be of assistance!

Seven year old condenser fan was making noise when it was running.
The process to repair was very simple, I removed the back of the refrigerator to expose the motor area. I then removed three screws that held the condenser motor in place. once it was loose I detactched the electrical harness and removed the old motor. I then placed the new motor in place and secured it with the screws and reattached the new electrical harness that came with the new part. Once completed I reviewed it to make sure I didn't miss anything. I then replaced the cover over the motor area and enjoyed my success in repairing my own appliance with no added cost for labor, which would have been expensive I'm sure. The part purchased came with clear and consice instructions very easy to follow.

Fridge made noise and the center post was HOT!
We have a side-by-side fridge/freezer and we experienced a hot center post (where doors come together) and the fridge made loud noise. Also, the (old) fan motor would start, but then quit, so our issue was the motor.

For me the repair was very easy, but for an unexperienced person it may prove to be difficult. If you must order a motor/fan, do NOT order the metal fan as a plastic fan comes with the motor. What's strange is the new motor is different than the old one, but it still mounted without any required modifications. I did NOT use the wire harness that came with the motor either as it was different too, but my old one was still good.

Check all of your parts as my fan had a cracked blade, but I used "superglue" and it's fine now.

Fridge stays cold and my wife had to lower the temperature in the fridge as she was blasted by the cold!

old condenser fan motor shaft was loose and it made the spinning fan blades shake and cause noise
The procedure was straightforward. I removed the cardboard backing on the lower back of the refrigerator to expose the fan unit. I then undid the electrical harness at the fan. I then removed the three screws securing the fan motor to the metal bracket. This is the hardest part in that I had to reach through and get to the screws with my small tools. I then removed the old motor and blades and placed the new motor and blades. Again, a bit tricky trying to get the three screws mounted into the bracket...small tools and hands helps. After that I used the electrical harness supplied with the kit to plug into the new motor and I was done.
