Having patience and plenty of time
The refrigerator never gave me any trouble. It's at least 25 years old. It runs like new now. The gasket can be softened, gently using a hairdryer. The key is to attach the gasket to the refrigerator and use a hairdryer, going back and forth the length of the gasket. Then, to stop using the hairdryer and with the hands pull (gently) on the gasket, the length of the gasket straightening and making the gasket wider so it attaches to the refrigerator as it cools. Then look for gaps and places where air is escaping and repeat, until a good seal is achieved. This is so much better than buying new, and in 10 years buying new again with planned obsolescence.
****Make are you order Capacitor & Starter relay too (we ordered separtely so had to pay shipping twice)**** Super easy just open access panel on back near compressor and remove retention clip with fingers, remove & replace both capacitor & starter, put clip and access panel back on, plug in and allow 8 hours to cool! Works like new again! Hope it goes another 10 years
changed the light bulb still would not work so I figured it was the switch sure enough.
I took a chance and ordered a switch that is next to the top of the door. looked for how to remove it easily done in ten minutes works fine last long time.
use kitchen knife to pry out. replaced switch assemble and pressed back into place. Could not have done this with out help from previous customers. Thanks
Outer case of freezer was heating up, not making ice (sometimes) turned up thermostat several times (especially freezer)
I got the product very quickly. (thank you) Looked at online instructions that were quite vague. Pulled plug.Removed the holder for the fan motor slid it out to see what I had. Removed the mounting screws (3) and slid the motor an fan blade out. I made a cut between the wires and marked the "top" wire to motor to be sure to spin in right direction. Removing fan blade hold down clamp was NOT explained at all but I noted that the shaft on the motor was threaded, so I used pliars and held the shaft white un-screwing clamp. I cleaned the fan blades with degreaser and scraped edges of opening on holder opening. Make sure to use ALL the NEW parts included with this kit when re-installing. They send them for a reason. When slpicing and connecting wires it is a 50/50 shot if you don't mark before cutting. You can connect and try plugging fridge back for moment and make sure it is blowing OUT. Put everything back together and after turning DOWN the thermostats twice, fridge is back to usual. Ice maker is cranking out ice and outside case is cool to the touch.
Note: This can be a DIRTY job especially with 4 dogs in house. Fir and grease don't mix well
Removed a small cover plug on the lower portion of the handle, removed three screws. Took off old handle, positioned the new one, replaced the screws and cover plug and that was it! Wouldn't have taken even 15 minutes if I hadn't dropped a screw and had to search for it - lol.
Door handle was damaged during move from another house to my house.
removed 3 phillips jead screws. removed old hangle. cleaned around the site of old grime./ smile. positioned new handle, applied the 3 screws, tightened, and " whalah" like new.
First I removed the old handle by removing the 3 screws holding it in place. There are 2 on the top and 1 at the side of the door. When I began to put the new handle on it became apparent that the metal frame inside the handle was not aligned perfectly with the old screw holes. The plastic is not even with the door horizontally on the top, but it fits otherwise. Be careful not to over tighten the screws when installing. Pretty easy overall.
First I removed all the screws from the back cover. 2nd removed fan nut and fan blade 3rd removed fan bracket 4th I traced wire to the condenser and disconnected wires from wire nuts. Installed existing fan brackets to new motor kit then reconnected wire nuts to new motor cord Reinstalled fan nut and blade, reinstalled cover, plugged it in and BAM .WORKS PERF!
First removed door, then removed all screws, then removed inside door panel, then removed old gasket, then installed new gasket, then reattached inside door panel and all screws, then reattached door, then used hair dryer to get gasket to seal in several areas.
Trial and error. IT would have been nice to have instructions with the part. Tried to install the gasket withour completely removing the frame. Wasn't happening. Finally removed the frame and repair went fairly well.
