To replace the ignition coil on a strikemaster solo ice fishing auger you will need to go about it from the bottom side. remove the auger drill itself and turn the unit upside down. remove the 4 screws and the snap ring remove the screw that connects the throttle arm. remove the remaining bolts that hold the upper part of the gear case and remove the entire gear case unit. now you will be able to access the screws that hold the plastic cover and have access to the coil.

SOURCE: Ice maker auger not turning

WELL DID YOU GET THE PLUG OUT OR END UP CALLING SERVICE ?AND FOR MY HONESTLY GOOD OPINION AND TRUTH IN ADVISING YOU!
YOU GAVE ME AN INAPPROPRIATE RATING AT FIXYA.COM
Shame on you! I know, sometimes the truth hurts!
BLESS YOU ANYWAY NGFAM1


There are many parts in this component that may be the culprit .
One or more will need to be replaced.
This is not easy to diagnose. I've seen service order parts 2 or 3 times till they completed the ice maker repair on a side by side fridge!
You need a hands on tech for this repair!

SOURCE: How to replacemale gear for ice auger on 2003 whirlpool side by s

Here is a place that has an exploded view of your icemaker, and mounting: http://www.pcappliancerepair.com/model-display.php
On the left side of the page, scroll that view down until you see the freezer door parts, and click on the words. This will bring up the proper view where you can see where the screws etc are that hold the unit in.

They, as well as the several other places I checked, show the auger motor as a sealed unit, that you get to by removing the icemaker from the door.

SOURCE: GE PS123 MGNA CC Ice Auger

I just finished replacing the ice auger in my GE HSS25GFPA side-by-side and offer some suggestions/hints.
The auger (WR17X11705) was available locally (Appliance Parts Co., $28.97). This fits many other refrigerators. The replacement took a little under 2 hours. I estimate these hints may cut the time by one-half.
There are only 4 screws in the entire ice drawer assembly. It possibly was not necessary to remove the control rod. The other 3 screws hold the front cover. There are also 2 tabs holding the top of the cover.
The most difficult part of the repair was removal of the plastic assembly housing the crusher blades and the front bearing of the auger. This is held in place by only 2 large square tabs on the sides. There is enough space to get ONE side to release BUT to get both released required careful prying with thin-bladed screwdrivers (and prayer). These "tabs" don't push in, rather the drawer flexes out. Once released, the unit slides up and angles to allow removal of the auger/crusher. Re-assembly could not be easier. Stainless sheet metal screws would probably work if you do break something.
Remove the clear inside cover of the crusher assembly and the "C" clip on the threaded end of the auger shaft to separate the auger from the crusher.
And now for my PRIMARY reason for sharing my experience - the %#$@ plastic nut/bearing is a LEFT-HAND THREAD. I only realized this when trying to bend my make-shift split screwdrive back and the SOB loosened right up!
Carefully note the locations and orientations of the blades and spacers as you move them from the old to the new auger.
Good luck!

Do you have a manual for an osceola power equipment Magnum iii plus 49cc ice auger

Osceola is now Strikemaster (Rapala); I think that model uses a Tecumseh power plant, so the linked manual should get you pretty close. If you need more specifics about the engine, see if you can find a model number on a label or spec number stamped directly on the engine (e.g., TC300-xxxxx xxxxx). https://www.rapala.com/on/demandware.static/-/Sites-rapala-Library/default/dw48864169/downloads/strikemaster/2hp_operator_manual.pdf

Ice cubes are not crushing

take out the auger assembly (plastic pan with metal coil in it) and dump out the ice and clean and defrost it. let it dry before returning it to the freezer. sometimes ice will buildup and cause this problem.

JRSD209T ice dispenser

pull the auger assembly out (large plastic pan with auger in it) and make sure it does not have any ice buildup in it or on it. fully reinsert it and try it with no ice in it. if it still does not work then you may have a bad auger motor.

Need to replace direct drive drum on Kitchenaid Superba side by side

May need to know your entire model # located on the inside in the refrigerator section. That plastic piece may unscrew but be a reverse thread.

Icemaker - Plastic

If the pieces of plastic are smaller than the inner diameter of the water tube then you should be looking at the filter washers on the tap and where the water line fits onto the valve assembly behind the fridge. If the filters are clear, the problem is within the ice dispenser. Remove the ice bin and inspect the shroud where the motor coupling pushes onto the auger behind the bin. The auger could be off centre and chaffing the plastic away. Otherwise, check the ice maker fingers for damage.
