We drink a lot of water in this house and just got used to the convenience of ice on demand. I'll also admit that now it's personal...I don't like failing at something I should be capable of fixing.

Mine updates directly into the scanner through the app, sometimes it does it automatically.

I got an XTOOL A30D a couple of years ago because it was the only reasonably priced consumer-grade scan tool I could find that would work with the ABS on my Nissan Frontier (long story). The Anyscan app is reasonably user friendly and I haven't paid anything since installing it, it also has a...

Thanks, already checked. The grille on mine is a hollow shell, no little hiding places unfortunately.

That's exactly what I'm looking for, thank you so much! Apparently there are three common locations for this paperwork...behind the condenser grill as you mentioned (not there), under an upper hinge cover (also not there), and around the back by the compressor. I'll have to pull the...

I suppose that would have been the smart thing to do. The model number is MFI2570FEZ05. I'd love to have a wiring diagram but the only documentation I've been able to find online is a user guide. Well I tried something I should have done from the beginning, I filled the ice tray with water...

The actual freezer is around zero, but the icemaker itself is mounted inside of a small chamber located in the refrigerator compartment. There's a small fan (which is working) that blows cold air directly from the evaporator coil onto the ice tray. What I'm trying to figure out is why it's no...

Thanks, but this one uses a wire bail to detect the ice level.

After several days of no improvement with both the water valve and icemaker replaced I'm at a loss. Even weirder is the results I'm getting from troubleshooting with my multimeter. First I used the thermocouple lead to monitor the temperature in the tray itself, and that averages around 9F so...

Open that filter up, let's see what you got!

Not in the least, especially at this point. The Suburban is actually my son's truck. I have a 2020 Silverado 1500 5.3L that got the "approved" oil until the warranty was over, then I immediately switched to Mobil 1 ESP 0w30. I'm more than comfortable using a high quality Euro-spec oil in place...

Sure seems so, I'll likely keep using it until I see a major reduction in crud. I'm looking forward to the UOA results from the next round, this time I'll remember to seal the bag.

2007 Suburban 5.3L with 225K miles and an uncertain previous maintenance history. This was after the first round of Valvoline Restore and Protect, the oil and filter certainly did their jobs as quite a bit of carbon was buried in the pleats and left in the bottom of the can. I did actually send...

I just use the factory Dexter seals, I haven't had one pop loose yet after two rounds with the EZ-lube fittings.

My understanding is that GM specifically says not to use LSD modifiers with the G80 truck diff because it's a mechanical locker. As per TSB #91-4-109: The use of any additive in locking rear axles (G80) is not recommended. Rear axle additives are designed for use in limited slip differentials...

Well shoot... Installed the new icemaker, it wasn't terribly difficult thanks to a YT video. Plugged the fridge back in and let it cool back down for a few hours, still nothing. No water flow at all into the icemaker. I did find that the little funnel that directs water into the tray was...

My trailer doesn't get used enough for mileage to be an issue since they recommend annual repacks as well, which seems a bit excessive to me. I guess that's another another advantage of the EZ-lube system, getting an idea of the condition of the grease as it is. I suppose if really nasty...

I'll often use the EZ-lube fittings to buy time between repacks, but I've always been concerned about the grease seal getting dislodged. I discovered that there is flat spot on the backing plate allowing just enough of a gap to get a peek at the seal with the drum installed. A bright flashlight...

I tried that too but only for a couple of minutes, maybe it should be for longer.

I used the Permatex blue stuff on my Frontier's first brake job. When the pads were about half worn I had to take the caliper off to do other maintenance, and the pins weren't quite seized but extremely stiff. I had to work them back and forth with pliers to get them out and there was no hint of...
