The defrost heaters can be heard to work quite regularly. From what I have read here, I think I have to remove the back panel of the freezer compartment? First problem is to remove the ice-maker. With the front cover pulled off, I found and removed two screws holding it up to the roof, but was then unable to see how to proceed? No further attachments are obvious. Even if I had been able to remove the ice-maker, I don't see any screws or other means of attachment for the back panel . . ? James .

Unfortunately, we have no information on these units and cannot provide assistance without the technical information. I suggest to check around and see if the service manual can be obtained locally. Let me know if there is any way I can further assist.
