PFSS6SMXESS General Electric Refrigerator - Instructions

Replacement ice maker was plug in unit, only needed to remove one screw holding plastic plate that hid plug and wiring. Plugged it in and reattached plate with screw and done!

Used a pair of needle nose pliers and replaced the spring.

0. As a safety precaution, unplug the range or hit the relevant fuse breaker before you start. You might also want to grab a flashlight. Definitely do not try to do this while the oven is hot.
1. Pinch the wire over the light bulb cap to remove it. This is inside the oven at the back.
2. Pop off the hemispherical glass cap.
3. Unscrew the old light bulb, and screw the new light bulb in its place.
4. Put the cap back.
5. Secure the cap by putting the wire back in its slots on the cap.

No tools needed, the cap is just held in place with pressure from the wire.

Turned the wire protector to the side. Turned out the old bulb and replaced it with the new. Turned the wire protector back in place and I'm like new.

Used pliers to put new spring in place;
Time took about 3seconds and I’m a female. Video provided very helpful.

Took off the back inside fridge and found that part was frozen with ice and unthawed it took over night al was ok.
Ps turned refrigerator up to 40 degrees all is ok.

Did not put part in : thanks

Hardest part of repair was getting frig. away from cabinets to unplug it.
Turn off water to ice maker.
Phillips's screwdriver to take off the cover of the electrical connection to
the icemaker tip it outward. I used flat head screwdriver to help disconnect the connection.
Also, to help getting the old icemaker removed. Once removed returned New one the reverse of taking it out. Won't need screwdriver to get it back in place. Put cover back in place and put the Phillips screw back in place. Plug refrig. back in. put it back in place turn the water back on should be good to go! BE afew hrs. before ice starts to show up!
Good Luck

Placed one end of the new spring in left hole and used the needle nose pliers to insert the other end of the spring in the right hole.

Moved stuff out of my way on the top shelf, reached in and turned old filter to remove. Filled new filter with water, lined up and turned to lock in place. Whew, never thought I would get that job done. :-)

Placed lower spring leg in hole first. Manipulated upper spring leg into upper hole with needle nose pliers.

Spent a dollar 1.97 on the spring.7.00 on shipping and fixed it in less than 5 minutes.Fantastic

Took out the old piece. Washed and replaced with the new one.

replacing broken french door spring.

Parts fit perfect. Very satisfied.

Watched a YouTube video and discovered there is a latch that needed to be depressed, then slide off the old assembly and slide on the new assembly until latched (you hear a snap type noise). Ta-Da! Task complete.
