Step By Step Instructions

1
To replace the auger motor shaft seal clip in this kitchenaid refrigerator, you will need a phillips-head screwdriver and a heat gun.
2
Before you begin the procedure, unplug the appliance’s power cord.
3
Open the ice compartment door and pull the retaining lever forward then lift the ice bucket assembly up to remove.
4
Use the phillips-head screwdriver to unthread the four screws securing the ice chute.
5
With the screws unthreaded, you can lift the ice chute out.

Because the clip retaining tabs are so rigid, we recommend using the heat gun or a hair dryer to heat them up to make them more pliable.

Before you install the new auger motor shaft seal clip, confirm the seal is properly positioned.
