Product review (5 stars): Icemaker Kit  Performance Upgrade & understanding
This kit makes ICE and plenty of it!  So much ice it would fill the freezer section. After many attempts to understand why, I got out the box that the previous one came in 6 years ago.  After studying the instructions for the previous one, I noticed it specifically instructed the seam on the plastic paddle for the control arm be installed with seam forward. The new one did not come with instructions, however the shipping box had the detail printed on the outside of the box. It specifically showed the plastic paddle being installed with the seam to the back side. I reversed and it made a remarkable difference. Ocassionally it will over flow the bin, but not fill the whole freezer compartment.  Makes good ice quickly,just need to monitor it from time to time. Supplier offered to replace it, but hate to give up ice and also pay for return shipping. Replacement could prove to be the same.

UPDATE

Supplier offered to REPLACE defective unit if I would return it with packing slip. I returned the defective unit several weeks before the 90 day limit with all the required paperwork as well as copies of the communication instructing me to return for REPLACEMENT.

Instead of replacement, the original cost was credited by Amazon to my account. For the return shipping cost, I would have kept the defective unit and manually used it. It was deception on sellers part as they did not want to be out the shipping cost of replacement, and I am very unhappy with the outcome. BUY FROM LOCAL VENDORS AND NOT BE AT THE MERCY OF INTERNET SALES!

FINAL COMMENT

The product is good and makes lots of ice quickly. Vendor was problem. NOTE many have the same too much ice problem. Many note the 90 degree orentation in the shut off switch. The original tray does not fit the new icemaker unit. The original tray is allowed to move too far back causing inteference with the paddle switch which controls ice level. You have to eliminate the inteference by 1 of 3  REMOVE TRAY and loose storage,  Pull tray forward about 1.5 inches to prevent contact with paddle when it cycles up. (Stuff in door can hit tray and move it.)

SOLUTION I Choose. glue a 1.5 inch block of styrofoam to tray in vacinity of switch. THIS SANDWICH PIECE OF FOAM HOLDS THE TRAY OUT FOR CLEARANCE. Simple fix once you understand the simple problem.
