I removed the ice bin and ran the auger motor with door open and the motor runs fine for about 10 seconds but starts to bog down and stops running. After a couple mintues of letting is sit it will start up and then quit again. This is a new auger motor I purchase from Parts Select a few weeks ago and still can't figure out what is wrong with it not dispencing the ice properly. Please advise.
