Ok, so the coil in the ice bin that moves the ice forward was not hooked into the plastic circular unit in the back to actually make it spin...so I took the face off of the bin...and got it hooked back in, only problem is, the blades fell off because I took the nut off of the front of the unit. Now I have no idea how they go back on...any direction or ideas I have attached a pic...thank you!

It took me 3 tries when I had one apart and I think the blades all lined up in the same place across was the way to do it. As opposed to them spaced out evenly.

new problem with same refrigerator....for a while now, the ice cubes have been hollow...kinda lived with that. Also, water would not dispense enough to fill up all of hte ice trays...the ones furthest from the tube would not get water in them. Lived with that as well.

For the past 6 mos or so, the teeth that push the cubes out would sometimes get frozen blocks of ice on them...and i'd hve to break it off to get the teeth to go down in between the other teeth and re-cycle.

Just came home from being away for the weekend and no ice....it now intermittantly works....but cannot be manually cycled as before. I know hte motor works because it can cycle...for instance I turned it off for a few hours and went back to turn it on and it ran 3 cycles before stopping again. There is now ice in the tray, just is not being pushed out.

Any advice or direction?
