As the repairman guaranteed, it was the wrong part and was about 1/4 inch too wide for the refrigerator. Fortunately. Sears parts charged us a fee to return it, so all is well for them. We ordered the proper part from a regional wholesaler and received it within 24 hours. So there.

Easy installation

No tools necessary; very easy to install (under 5 minutes). Turn off ice maker via little switch at top left prior to removing old bucket. Turn on after installation. It may take some time before icemaker decides to resume operation -- don't worry, it eventually will.
