Easy as Pie
No problems with the replacement. It would be helpful if you told folks that the ice maker needs three days to reset before it works

Easy repair and quick install
I had thought my ice maker was not worker due to frozen water line as in the past but this time it was the emitter and receiver board. I went on YouTube to confirm the 'diagnosis' There's a nice video on the Part Select sight that gave clear and simple instructions on how to install. I receive part pretty quick and it took me less than 10 minutes to swap out the boards. Ice finally started to fill the bin later that evening : )

I was apprehensive to attempt the repair but the instructions from PartSelect gave me confidence and made the repair easy. I will look to PartSelect for help with any future appliance repairs.

Not quite what I expected
I received the part after having a bit of trouble with Fed-Ex delivering it in a timely fashion. I installed the parts and they seem to be working as required but the LED lights do not come on. It is making ice as it is supposed to but the lights are supposed to light and don't. Don't know why.

No ice cubes from the icemaker
Over the last several years we have had several appliance repairmen try to fix the icemaker. One replaced the entire icemaker. We bought a booster pump for the water. After spending about $1,000 over the past few years trying to fix the problem, a plumber doing routine plumbing work looked at it, and said it might be the control board. I found instructions online how to test the control boards. I ran the test, and they failed. I ordered the parts from PartSelect, followed their easy instructions, and tested the new units. They passed with flying colors. We now actually have an automatic icemaker for the first time in years.

Ice maker would not release ice cubes
My Ice maker would not release ice cubes, it thought the ice bin was full. So I got on You Tube and looked up how to videos. Partselect videos were the best that I found and the prices were low also. The whole repair took about 15 minutes.

Ice was made intermittently, and then no ice at all!
My ice maker about six months ago started to ice make very intermittently and eventually stopped all together. The emiitter no matter what I did was giving me two flashes then a pause, over and over again. I purchased the emitter kit and with a Phillips screwdriver in about five minutes my ice maker kicked the sulinoid on and ice was already started!!! Fast and easy repair!!!
