Hello Guys,

I need to replace the Ice Maker for the Whirpool WRF736SDAM model. The Ice Maker is concealed under the top of the refrigerator and I can't see any screws to pop open the panels. Please see the attached image.

Any help and images for installation/disassembly would be much appreciated !

Rick, I located another thread for replacing the ice maker on this exact same model number as he has: FIXED WRF736SDAM11 Ice Maker Replacement, You posted quite a few photo diagrams in that thread as well.

So with that video on facebook and those photo diagrams, that will likely help him do it successfully.

Here's the ice maker for his model number, in case others need it too:
Ice Maker Assembly WPW10764668

I knew that I posted a lot of pictures on removing it but I couldn't find it. I must be using the wrong search box.

Actually Rick, I found it by clicking the model number link in his first post.

It will show you a list of the same model numbers from the past threads.

OH OK, that's a lot easier than the way I was doing it. (don't ask it's embarrassing...lol)

Rick, Thanks for posting this video. However I’m still stuck trying to remove the right-side cover plate. My unit doesn’t have the removable face plate accross the front of the covers. It does have a small face plate on the left side where the icemaker is but the right side doesn’t have one. I removed the two 1/4” screws in the water filter housing but there must be something else holding the right-side panel. Once I get the right-side panel removed I think I can get everything else with the help of the video you posted.

We are Glad to help arbiadya!

OK Brickey, Here's the illustrations I made for the WRF759. It should be the same as yours. (fingers crossed....Lol)
