Ed,

Check the auger motor drive coupler, make sure it is not loose or stripped on the drive motor threaded shaft.

Part number: AP4363997
Part number: AP4363997


You'll need to remove the complete ice bin assembly from the unit to check.

While you have the bin out, empty the ice into a container and check the auger(corkscrew) and auger drive hub for proper alignment.

Part number: AP3045913
Part number: AP3045913


Also check the motor housing for level and perpendicular to the back wall of the freezer compartment.

Do you use a lot of ice ?

(icemaker produces 8 cubes per hour, approximately).

The less ice in the bin, the longer it takes to dispense.

Good Luck,
:) :) :)
