Door Light switch cracked Mounting
I noticed that the refrigerator was having trouble maintaining temperature. Thought it might be time for new one until I found out that a new frig was $5k to $7K. Just happened to notice that the light switch didn't look quite right (was not sitting sqaure to the door). Once I pressed it it came loose. I then realized the the lights were staying on (50 watts of heating). Replaced the switch and the frig started working like new.
Part was easy to order, delivered quickly, installation very easy. Just unplug the unit, pop out the old swich using a screwdriver, disconnect and reconnect leads and pop switch back in. Definitely recommend that you can do it too.
Pry old switch and pull out. Disconect two wires. Put two wires on new switch, must be inserted right and connections not loose. Put switch in, making shure wies do not come off and snap in place
Unplug appliance. Socket wrench to unscrew two screws. Module drops down. disconnected two press-on wires by prying off with screwdriver. Removed old switch. Press-fit new switch. Reconnected two wires (color coded). Screwed module back in place. Plug in appliance.
The rail had broken off, so there was nothing to remove, except the crisper drawers. I had called an amana repair service and the repairman told the part was about $9 and the cost to install was $127. When I almost fainted, he told me I could probably do it myself. Wow, was he right! I ordered the part, it came in about 2 days, I looked at the rail, removed the glass shelf, hooked the rail into the little opening at the back, and bang! All done. It took me 10 seconds!!
A very cold and brittle switch in a 17 year old fridge. Used screwdrivers to pry out with some resistance Had to cut the molded plug in half and split wires, because replacement contacts were farther apart than the original. End result, works great.
Finding the part that I needed was incredibly easy. I usually leave all repairs to my husband but I was getting frustrated that my vegetables were freezing due to the drawer laying right on the wall dividing the freezer area. I took it upon myself to search for parts by using the refrigerator model number, This site is the BEST!! By providing pictures of the parts and where they go I was able to order the correct one. It arrived within a few days and I installed it in less than 5 minutes. I was relieved that I had ordered the correct part and my husband was pleasantly surprised that I took care of it myself. Thanks
