Whirlpool WP12740302 Ice Auger And Crusher Blade Assembly OEM Part

Replaced both parts

First I call a maytag repairmen who charged me $85 for service call. He then told me that I would need to go on line to get the parts for the repair and installed them myself, in which I did. The repair was done according to the Appliance parts you tube directions. Considering I did not know what was wrong with the frig, I guess the $85 dollar service call was necessary.

I purchased the two parts from the website, watched the installation video a couple times while repairing it and it was a breeze. I cannot believe I have waited a year with a terrible ice crusher thinking it would just be a loss. No home warranties cover ice machines and the labor is high to have it repaired. I even looked into buying a portable ice machine to set on the counter thinking it was my only resort to having ice. I tried Amazon, Sears and Amana websites but found what I was looking for once I was redirected to ApplianceParts Pros.com. Love the simple instruction video!!!!

I bought the replacement icemaker and crused ice agitator. You did have to use the old wiring harness and arm. It took me about an hour to replace everything but I am a woman and I try. I was afraid it was not going to fix anything once I got it installed. I could not see where it was making ice. I waited until the next morning and everything is working fine.
