Help!
Needed new icemaker tray shelf (ice bin sits on this), no problem until I try to install the new tray, the yoke which turns the auger must go through a tiny hole, I have no idea how to remove the yoke from the shaft. It is threaded, but just turns with the motor as I try and remove it.
Thanks in advance.

Ok, these are kinda tricky to get off. You will need to get either a heavy duty screwdriver(think metal shaft) style or some big pliers or channel locks and then tap that coupler off, I can't remember if it is clockwise or counter clockwise to take it off, sorry about that, its been awhile since I did one.

Thanks for the quick help! There is really no room for channel locks or anything else for that matter. Tried turning with a big screwdriver, but it just turns the yoke and motor. Took the cover plate off and saw yoke spline and gear. That can't be the way to do it, the spline is threaded at the end.
Thanks again

Ok, Hopefully you will be able to get it off.
