"Won't spit ice"

I assume you mean dispense ice through door flap. 

Is ice chute clear of ice or obstruction?

[John in the OC]

I took out the Ice dispenser I took out the motor and let it thaw cleaned and wiped down every thing..

Its got the cleanest shoot this side of the Rockies..

[16345Ed]

When you press the ice dispenser does the auger motor run?

[John in the OC]

Not anymore....it would clunk clunk stop I would hear it start to turn the auger then clunk clunk clunk...

Now if you watch the vid its just click click click

[16345Ed]

Give me a few minutes. Checking service manual and wiring diagram. 

[John in the OC]

Hey!

Thank You

[16345Ed]

Is your ice maker mounted on left side of freezer or way back?

[16345Ed]

Do you still have motor out?

Do you have a meter for testing?

[16345Ed]

Motor: Check resistance of terminals where purple and light blue wires were attached. Should be 4 ohms +\- 20%, if not replace motor. 

 

Solenoid: Check resistance of terminals where blue with white stripe and light blue wires were attached. Should be 34 ohms +\- 20%, if extremely high or low replace

Do you have a multimeter?

[John in the OC]

Well I was hoping it was just gonna be straight forward with the video.

I don't have that tool

[16345Ed]

Ok some electrical testing needs done to determine if it's the auger motor, solenoid, dispenser board or power board. 

 

Does water dispenser work?

[John in the OC]

yep everything works but the auger.....

 

[16345Ed]

That would indicate boards are ok. 

[John in the OC]

I just need to inner assembly right I don't have to replace the whole thing do I

It's a crap shoot without testing. Buy from these links and they can be returned if they don't help.
