KitchenAid Fridge / Freezer Stopped Making Ice How to Replace The Ice Maker
My KitcheAid Fridge / Freezer stopped making ice. The model of the fridge / freezer is KFCS22EVMS1. The new ice maker part number is D7824706Q. This video shows how to remove the old ice maker and install the new one. This solved my problem. If it doesn't solve yours, the next step would be to check the water inlet valve.

How to Re-Seat a Tubeless Utility Tire (Re-inflate a tire that has fallen off the rim)
I logged in just to say THANK YOU for making this video, which saved me $200-300 in labor costs because your fix worked perfectly for me!! Ordered a new circulation pump for about $120, it arrived the next day, and I had it successfully installed in about 20 minutes. Super helpful!
So thank you for the video. I just want to add that when I saw your pump all gunked up I thought maybe the pump was just jammed. So I took a wrench to the pump and it kicked on. It was just jammed. Might not have been the case for yours but again thanks for your video but i suggest to your viewers to try and bang the pump with a wrench to break the impeller loose.
Need a better editor, never heard of a whirlpool/GE dishwasher
Thanks for posting this. This is exactly what happened to mine even down to the pile of grey gunk in the floor under the motor.
Nice starsan
My daughter is 28 and I miss the days when she used to sit next to me underground and help me work on the vehicle or the boat.
What would you do if it’s coming from the middle one and not the sides
Hi I have the same kitchen aid fridge, how to stop them making ice
If you see the thing that looks like a wire and push that up to the top of the cabinet, it should say up. In that position the unit should not make ice.
Very helpful. Thanks so much. -Dan
How do you know you haven’t blow the seal. My camper last year had a seal blown and I had to replace the bearings, seals, and brakes. I am concerned with putting too much grease in and blowing the seal again.
Do you know if it had the same type of hubs as this one? This one shows the excess grease coming out, and when you see that, then you know you have put in enough grease.
@@hobbyhandyman it looks very similar to that only bigger. The zirk is in the center of the hub. I just don’t want to deal with another blow seal.
Nice thanks!
I have a GE Adora. When it doesn't clean, remove the motor, and clean the impeller. It's easy to do, and it will save you from buying a new pump.
Wow! That's easy. I always wondered what thrm things on the wheels were for. Lol. Thank u
My mower has larger wheels on the rear. When I set them at the same setting, the back of the deck is about a half inch higher than the front. Is this the correct way? I do notice that a lot of grass gets kicked out to the rear right wheel when I mow. Should the deck be level?
Yes, the deck should be level. Although the rear wheels might be bigger the settings should be the same. However if not put it on a level surface like a driveway or walkway and adjust until the deck is level, then you should be all set.
that doesn't look any where near level
I guess it’s the perspective. The level ensured that the mount was level.
Good job dad!
Thank you!
NEVER go to a dealership, they will make sure you need a new car, won’t fix your problem, and charge you a ridiculous amount for not fixing your problem!
The carriage bolts are terrible for the bagger. The threads shred and the bagger will just fall off. Going back to a Deere where the bagger simply hangs onto the frame.
good prsentation. brief to the point. thank you
My identical GE dishwasher flooded my entire floor! The culprit was the rubber 90 degree pipe. It turns out that it's a well known, well documented defect. GE has/will do nothing about it! Even though other models have a similar rubber hose for $8 this model doesn't. You have to buy the entire pump $100-$160. SMH 🤬
That’s so frustrating.
great video very helpful
Glad it was helpful!
I don't have the turn know water control under the sink. Mine is a push/pull tab. The connection I have doesn't fit, so...what kind of attachment should I get to make it work? I'm afraid if I just walk into Lowes and ask, I'll get blank stares...
Thanks for the comment. I am not sure I follow the type of shut off you have. If you want to send me a picture at hobbyhandyman@gmail.com I can take a look. Thanks!
It has to be a 3/8 x 5/8 angle stop valve.
Mine is a 2020. Last year the rubber elbow split and it leaked water on the floor. I had to buy the whole pump. Worked like new until last week. Now is not cleaning top and bottom. It used an oem GE replacement pump. Could it be bad already? BTW both spray arms are clear of blockage.
UPDATE: I just fixed it at no cost. I removed the lower bar, removed 3 screws and pulled out the center piece. The white spindle inside has 2 magnets on the end. It had a black goo all over it. Degreaser wouldn't even touch it. I had to use a toothpick to scrape the magnets clean then more degreaser and an old toothbrush. Put it all back together and it works like it should!
I have the same faucet and it’s actually leaking from the faucet, not from the cold/hot handles.. how would I fix this?
Bad video didnt learn nothing omg😢
I will remake the video for you in a few weeks.
U didnt mention if 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 or 5
Do you mean the position?
Just came across this video super informative as I just got a second hand bike and noticed what sounds like a very similar sound coming from what I thought was the pedals when riding out of the saddle. Peloton. Sent replacement pedals but that didn’t solve it. I even attempted tightening the screws underneath the stabilizer bar to no avail. I have no experience using a metal file so wondering if maybe a handyman might be able to help with this?
Thanks for watching. Yes, if you should them this video they should be able to help (assuming that is the issue).
Great to have a helper. simple instructions but what I needed, thanks.
After a cycle I took the filter to clean. Is it normal that water is still there where the filter is? If if not how to manual drain it. Is there a setting
Yes in my experience there is always some water in there.
I wonder if adding some x bracing on two of the sides might help make it a little more rigid? Anyway, thanks for the video - I was considering this cart for the same purpose as you, but I think I'll keep looking.
I agree an x would make it more stable but there may be others out there that are better quality. Thanks for watching!
Thanks and love that “Dad, I love you” part the most. You’re doing great as a Dad
How often do you grease it? Like every year?
Depends on how much you use the trailer. Shouldn’t have to do it too much. You can pump a little in each year to see what the grease looks like coming out the other side.
Love the “dad I love you” part of this video.
No. Which direction is higher or lower?
It varies by mower. But if you move the lever and the wheels come up, then you will be cutting shorter. If you move it and the wheels go down, you will be cutting longer.
@@hobbyhandymanIsn’t it the opposite, I would think if the wheels go higher than your raising the deck therefore cutting higher and vice versa. Thanks! Or does it vary from manufacturer to manufacturer?
"Dad, I love you". Brightened my day. Give that child a BIG hug.
I thought on that particular Toro model you position the levers in opposite direction. To lower you move the front levers towards the front and the rear levers towards the back and the opposite is done to raise the level.
This one had the wheels go down (higher cutting height) when you brought the levers to the back and the opposite (wheels come Up / shorter mowing height) for when you bring it to the front.
I really appreciate your review here. Thank you for taking the time to do this. More so - I have always felt it in my heart of hearts that if someone is reviewing something that is lawn care / tool related and the tools are clean, I have an instant distrust and dislike for the reviewer. Seeing that your product is used, grass clippings and such - makes me feel far more trusting and like "he's not doing this for show, he's actually using this" so thank you SO MUCH for being so damn real, man!
We just bought the Husqvarna model at Lowes for $99 on the clearance aisle. It was complete with all the parts to.
How much oil with filter replacement
You can get the tool and assortment of replacement fasteners at harbor freight cheap.......much easier to slide the tool under the panel than trying to just get under the fastener If removing factory installed oil filter......be prepared with plier type oil filter wrench Don't think you can get away without a tube, something to get oil out to catch pan, you won't get one directly under the drain I think next time I'm going to drive left wheels up on blocks to tilt motor toward the drain
Ok wait. I have ac in the front and it is cold and okay..... but the ac on the cieling in the back seat is just warm. I need to know where the ones for the rear is
There shouldn’t be two different condensers so recharging should work for the whole vehicle. It might be the setting you have for the rear. Make sure they are the synced. So in other words you are blowing max a/c to front and back at the lowest temp.
There’s an issue with the AC lines that run to the back, more than likely. Common problem with this particular year of Yukon.
It’s an Excellent video,but should be great if was showing how to remove step by step . And install back again … I still like the video thank you !
Exactly what mine is doing …. Buy in cold side
I have the SAME faucet and leaking problem. I just have ONE question before I attempt the repair...... Do you wrap the graphite the entire length ? Or just on the smooth part ? 🤔
Thanks for watching. You can wrap the graphite around the smooth part and if you wanted you could add some Teflon tape to the threads. I didn't do the teflon tape, but others have commented here that it helps as well.
Thank you 👍
Little toy pumps that are designed to fail so they can keep selling you parts & keep service guys busy.
I had to replace the wash circulation pump, and when installing it the diverter started leaking. When I pulled it off the diverter rubber boot was disintegrating, if you rub your finger on it the rubber comes off onto your finger. Pure Junk. The dishwasher just over 4 yrs old. GE is making pure junk.

Wow I was completely lost on why my axles sounded like I was flinging the teeth on a chainsaw but the lack of grease or should I say none at all would explain that . Do most new axles come like that with no grease?
They should be greased from the factory but doesn’t hurt to do your own.
I have a similar designed one with the spout swivel underneath the body like yours in a 65 year old house, that is leaking badly at the spout. Managed to get the darn thing apart. Would you believe the packing nut is a 8 sided (not hex) 1-3/16" nut? What were they thinking? Very little clearance for an open ended wrench to get in there because of the tabs that the mounting feet attach to. What a design from hades! Managed to get it off with a regular pair of pliers but of course the soft brass was badly chewed up by the teeth. What do you use for packing? There was just some old strip of a rag in there lol. The packing nut has an inside taper at the end for packing to jam into.
Thanks for the comment and watching. I used graphic packing as this is a utility sink. If this were a main faucet I would look for a replacement washer or better packing material.
@@hobbyhandyman I ended up using 3/32" dia.teflon packing, 3 wraps with the ends cut to a taper, followed by about 10 wraps of regular white teflon tape on top of that. Washer wouldn't apply to my situation I was dealing with. I couldn't find any one piece packing anywhere, for this 65 year old faucet.
Wasn't going to comment until I heard, 'Dad, I love you' and you responding, 'Love you too'. <3
Thank you!
Great Video. I was able to remove the back cover and clear the dust and that fixed it without having to replace the motor.
Nice work!
