Product review (5 stars): Good as new again!
After 10 years, the icemaker in my 25 cubic ft Kenmore side by side stopped working.  In the weeks before it quit, I noticed it would make a loud "knocking" sound right before it would drop a batch of ice. Fearing what Sears(or any appliance repair business) would charge to come out and fix it, I started looking around the freezer and discovered the ice maker unit is easily removed.  A quick search online resulted in me finding this replacement part.  I looked my model up on searsparts website and a replacement icemaker was $214 and was the SAME EXACT PART NUMBER (2198597)AS THIS ONE!  So I ordered this one from Amazon and had it 2 days later.  Installation took 20 min tops.  If you are remotely handy, you can do this yourself!  The part fit perfectly.  As mentioned before, the little fill cup on the new unit is taller than the original. I was able to get it in by simply moving the little black rubber fill tube that sticks down from the top of freezer out of the way long enough to get it in. It's rubber so it will bend, however, considering it was 10 years old and has been in a 0 degree environment all that time, I tried to minimize the bending of it.  Also, snapping the electrical connector together was a little tough, but it went without forcing it.  Once it was all back together I plugged the unit back in and turned on the acceler-ice feature(it basically sets the freezer to it's coldest setting for 24 hours) and within an hour it was dropping ice!  I dumped the first few batches and now I have cubed and crushed ice again!  If you have a 25 or 27 cubic ft side by side made by Whirlpool(if it's a Kenmore the first 3 digits of the model number will be 106.) that has the ice bin in the door, this part should work. Also there is a youtube video that is very helpful.
