Is the ice actuator easier to replace than the water actuator? Or is it the exact same procedure? I've replaced the water actuator before.

Answer Hello Jean,
You would follow the same procedure to replace the ice actuator as you would to replace the water actuator.
I don't see any screws at the bottom of the cover. I need to remove and install the ice actuator part. Are you sure you have the right refrigerator?

Answer Hello Lucy,
As per the parts explosion, I must ask if you removed the drip tray. The screws should be behind it. If there are no screws, grasp the bottom edge of the dispenser cover and pull sharply down and toward you with your knee against the door so it cannot move. This should snap it off. To re-install, hook it on at the top and bump it back on with the heel of your hand. The instructions with the screws should be correct if you listed the correct model number unless the manufacturer has incorrect information on the parts explosion. Let us know if you continue to experience problems and we can turn it over to research and get to the bottom of it.
If the ice acuator door pushes open but will not reopen, So could that be broken or is the flap that holds the rod broke?

Answer Hello JR. You will need to remove the drip tray and remove the three screws at the bottom and lift off the front cover 241679003. The look and see what part is broken inside the dispenser. You will then be able to see if the actuator 241681903 is bad in the dispenser. Hope this helps.
