Monte H June 04, 2018 for Model Number Kenmore Elite 79572033112 I need to replace my ice maker AEQ73110203 made by OH SUNG. It is like the one pictured except I have two female connectors. One is eight pin and the other is nine pin. The ice maker pictured for this part number has one large connector. This is the same situation on other parts distributor pages on which I have looked. My refrigerator is 4 years old. Did the connectors change along the way?
1 Answer Monte, If you did not remove the complete auger housing when removing the wiring then you are only seeing what is connecting to the icemaker and the larger plug in will be located behind that housing. You will remove the 2 screws at the bottom under where the ice bin sits and and 2 screws on the wall under the icemaker to remove the auger cover. This icemaker will be the correct one for your unit.

Don Hope April 10, 2018 for Model Number LFX31925ST/ 02 Will a AEQ7290408 work in place of a AEQ73110205 ice maker? I ordered the 205 and they shipped a 408? I think both are wrong, I believe AEQ73110203 would be the correct ice maker, my current one has a 3 wire plug not the 8 wire plug. I guess if I was real confident I could install the 3 wire plug on the new ice maker, your thought. I was planning on exchanging, just an idea.
Jeff Sauerwein March 06, 2018 for Model Number AEQ73110203 I just ordered the new ice maker. I removed the old one to verify the correct part number, my question is can I leave the old one out while I wait for the new one or will that being disconnected interrupt the normal operation of the fridge? Thank you
1 Answer Jeff, Yes you can leave the icemaker out as it should not cause an issue with the operation of the unit. You may get an error code saying the thermistor for icemaker is bad but should not stop the unit from working. Read More...
Ken C March 04, 2018 for Model Number 795.71056010 The tray on our ice maker is broken in that the peg (axis) that the tray rotates about (opposite the side that actually actuates the rotation) has snapped off. Is there ANY possibility that you know of to just purchase the tray? The cost of a whole replacement ice maker along with all of the difficulty in actually replacing it (wiring, temp sensor placement, etc...) seems excessive when all we really need to do is reattach a water tube and snap it into the ice maker.
1 Answer Ken, Unfortunately the manufacturer does not offer the tray separately and will need to get the icemaker for it. Read More...
Allen January 22, 2018 for Model Number LFX25973ST/03 This unit has ice maker #AEQ73110203. Can I order just the ice tray. Hard water buildup has coated the tray and ice won't drop.
1 Answer Hello Allen, the icemaker for the model number supplied is part number AEQ73110203. However the manufacturer only sells the assembly no individual parts are offered separate. Thanks! Read More...
Ann E October 01, 2017 for Model Number 79572063315 I ordered this part today and hope it will come with detailed instructions since I see no video for it. In order to assure we were choosing the correct part, we removed the entire panel that holds the icemaker to check the wire assembly. Like another person posting here, after wrestling with that iced up assembly, with very tightly taped wires and such, we have no idea where the white probe goes now. You suggest to that user that there is an obvious spot for it. We saw nothing obvious. Please provide a photo or a more detailed description of where it goes and whether it must also be taped in place. Also, please advise of the type of type to use when the old tape loses its grip. Many thanks.
1 Answer Hello Ann. Yes the blue wire with the white head will be a sensor but it will be go on the backside of the panel where there will be a spot for it. You will see where it lays and you will need to tape it in place. There should be tape already there for the old one. Thanks. Read More...
1 Answer John, There is a button on the side of the icemaker that you flip to turn the icemaker off. Read More...
Jim April 19, 2017 for Model Number AEQ73110203 I installed this ice maker in my LG fridge. It fills with water and freezes, but never rotates to dump the ice. If I hit the reset button, it dumps and refills without any problems. I suspect that the blue wire with the white cap is some kind of temperature sensor, but have no information on where it should be clipped or mounted. Any pictures or videos of one of these properly installed?
1 Answer Jim, Yes the blue wire with the white head will be a sensor but it will be go on the backside of the panel where there will be a spot for it. Read More...
Don March 01, 2017 for Model Number Lfx31925st The ice maker I just removed has AEQ73110203 stamped on the back. However, the wiring harness attached to the back plate has 6 different connectors. I read that the 6 connector is supposed to be another model, AEQ73110205. What should I order?
