Preparing Ice Maker for Installation

1. Remove the white plastic cover (#18)
2. Unscrew ¼” bolt holding bracket at bottom of mold (#33) and replace the bracket with the one off the original ice maker
3. Pull out the wiring harness (#32) by using a screw driver to depress the locking tab then slide out the connector (see image3 below)
4. Install the harness from the original ice maker
5. Examine the fill cup (#22) on the old ice maker to determine the fill tube orientation.
6. Use pliers to snap out the appropriate plastic knockout on the new ice maker's fill cup (#22).
7. Put the cover (#18) back on and it is ready to mount to the refrigerator.
(On some refrigerators you may need to use your existing ice maker front cover)

On some Maytag | Amana side-by-side refrigerators where the ice maker is located in the rear of the freezer, it is necessary to use your existing wiring harness. After you remove the front cover from the existing ice maker (#18) remove the harness from the ice maker by depressing the tab that locks the harness to the ice maker head, see image 3. Do not install the front cover until after you connect the wiring harness to the new ice maker.
