Most refrigerators come with an ice maker that is built in. When the appliance breaks, you have any options to fixing the problem.
1. You can replace the broken part with parts from the same refrigerator manufacturer.

2. Buy a similar third party replacement part.
3. Buy a new ice maker that is compatible with your refrigerator.
It is best to stick with primary manufacturing parts. I also recommend you to check the homeowners manual to be sure you don't void the warranty of your appliance.
There are some things to consider when purchasing a new ice maker. The shape of the cube, the size and the mechanism in which ice is distributed are foremost factors. Most of these factors are considered by the refrigerator manufacturer. So with that in mind it will help your narrow down your field of choices.
One example is ice can be dispensed straight through an internal storehouse bin by opening the door or it can naturally be dispensed straight through a door dispenser. Add-on ice makers are always internal, so this would not be acceptable replacement for refrigerators that have door dispensers.
The size and shape of the cube is also important. It is foremost that the replacement part using a door dispenser use the same shape of size as the primary ice maker, if the cube is not the same size and shape the dispenser will not work.
Most ice makers last six to ten years. Most replacement parts come with a 90-day warranty in case they are defective or fail. If you plan to replace the parts yourself make sure to unplug the device from the power source. Refer to the manual or instructions that came with the replacement parts for faultless instructions. If you are unsure of replacing the parts yourself, it is best to hire a fix man.
