Gundi from CA

Ice dispenser actuator pad failed. Broke at plastic hinge on bottom.

Wire nuts, wire stripper

Rather than removing the entire assembly in the refrigerator door, we shut off the power to the refrigerator, pulled out the “hanging” old actuator pad, cut the wired plug off the new actuator assembly, cut the wires going to the old actuator pad assembly, stripped 1/2 inch of wire coating off the 4 exposed ends, used two wire nuts to twist and splice the wires to one another, taped to reinforce them against pulling out, reinserted the wires into the hole where the actuator pad normally seats, and clipped in the new part.
