Dude, thank you. I just bought an ice maker with an auger and wondered how it worked. Being a master mechanic for a shop, i fix almost anything in my house and saved a ton of money doing it. If i ever hear a squeal noise in my ice maker, I'm going back to this video. Cheers!
I have a GE Opal Ice Maker and when it first starts up it squeals horribly. I will be doing this and seeing if it fixes it. My other problem is the growth of mold in the bottom of the ice bucket. Cleaning this thing is ridiculous every week just about to keep the mold from growing in the side tank and ice bucket.
Do all the brands of Counter top Ice makers have that Spring at the top of the Auger, I have a VEVOR Counter top ice maker and , NO spring at all, so at this poiantnt I thought that spring was important to why the squeeling?

Is the green grease food safe? Wondering if it’s bad to use that one?
How long did this "Fix" prevent squealling? Good info on previous attempts but when did it come back?
Thank you. Gonna try

Got an update?
That spring is a seal to keep the water from running out
I thought the Spring was to move that Auger up and down, without one whats causing the squeeling
