Do-It-Yourself Story

I tried the easy electrical fixes-testing the evaporator thermister and the ice bin thermister. Evaporator one was bad, so I replaced it. Icemaker made ice like a champ but still shut down after the bin was full and would not come back on. The control board was the only thing left to replace in the electronics. Getting to the board was pretty easy-I had disassembly instructions here for my model-- http://www.truetex.com/ice_machine_gi1500.pdf Getting the control box cover off was easy. Getting it back on was the hardest part of the entire process because of trouble getting the screws to line up. Once I got one screw on in the back, the rest fell into place pretty easily. The machine now makes ice great and shuts down when the bin is full like it should. More importantly, it now starts right back up when the ice bin thermister tells it to. Overall, I am very pleased. Not the easiest job in the world, but it's completely doable if you follow the directions. Having the schematic was very helpful.
