How to Troubleshoot & Replace Whirlpool AP5688861 / W10583817 Refrigerator Ice Maker Kit

I have a Maytag MFI2568AES refrigerator. The ice maker quit working for no reason. I ordered the ice maker replacement parts from AppliancePartsPros.com. The kit came within 2 days. I spent about 20 minutes getting the kit installed and after a few hours we had ice. 

Replaced the ice maker. Appliance Parts Pro was a great help with assisting in the repair. Joe Martin was great to work with and always answered my questions quickly and completely. Do not think I could have done it without him. 

WE ORDERED A REPLACEMENT PACKAGE. IT TOOK OUR SON LESS THAN 60 MINUTES TO INSTALL. THANK YOU FOR THE HELP. YOUR PERSONEL WERE VERY HELP FULL. 

Watched video on internet. Took a little over a hr. to do. GOT ICE! 

Found the part and it came in less than a week. Took about an hour to replace, the instrusction we ok, could have been better bu overall, very satisfied. 

After reading information on Appliance Parts Pros website a couple of DIYers had a similar problem. I knew the water solenoid was good because I tested it with a meter. The icemaker did not start when I tried a manual start and the water filter assembly made a grinding sound occasionally when I tried to get water from the door. My symptoms matched those of others, so I watched the videos on their site and although I really was apprehensive about replacing the water head filter and water tank assembly, I chose to take a chance on my skill set. The video gave step by step instructions to follow and although it took me about 3 hours to replace both parts the refrigerator works like it's brand new. The majority of the time I spent was taking most everything our of the refrigerator to be able to access the back panel inside. Appliance Parts Pros is a terrific resource for discounted parts and step by step videos to fix appliances. 

Ordered both pantry endcap kit, and ice maker kit. Watched video for ice maker replacement. Would have been faster if could have seen back of wire cover in video before starting. 

I ordered a replacement icemaker from Appliance Parts Pros and it was very simple to install.
