The problem that I am having is that where there is a wiring harness with a male connector on the ice maker itself, there is no female end to "plug it into" on the freezer wall, nor do I see any wires coming in forr this purpose. Is ther some super secret panel or something that I need to remove to access this? Thanks in advance to all who may know the answer! Mike

While I am at it, (asking questions that is!) is all I need to do is bolt and hook up the water line and plug it in? Or is there more? My freakin manual has nothing about hooing up the ice maker that the dang fridge came with!!! Again, thanks for the help. Mike
