10653232300 Kenmore Refrigerator - Instructions

Removed the six screws holding the bottom access plate found at the rear of the refrigerator. This gives you easy access to the run capacitor that has a retaining clip. Remove the wire clip and pull out the capacitor (it has two quick disconnect terminals). Reverse the process using the new run capacitor to complete the repair.

Easy.... Video made replacment very smooth. I only needed one tool a nuy driver.

I saw a video of it, and simply took apart the ice maker and put the new Auger Drum in, then reassembled the ice maker.

The repair was easy. I wish I would have had a nutdriver; that would have made it extremely easy and a lot faster. I used a small wrench to take out the old ice maker. The new one went in easy. The arm was easy to move from the old ice maker to the new one, but it was a bit snug. We had to manually push the arm down a few times for the icemaker to dump the ice. After about 5 batches or so, it began to work on its own and now we have a full tub of ice (for the first time in two years). This was certainly time and money well-spent. Any one can do it!

With service sheet, Enter service dagnostic mode, NO-6 is Desrost heater / Bi-metal Component status indicator shows 02 , it means Bi-metal is open, It should read 01,It's cover with Ice ( bellow 32 Dig. F )Mostly it open at 50 dig. F, To replace remove lamp cover and lamp + six hex screw with 1/4" nut driver, pull back cover ( with commen requirement to turn of power and deice the evaporator coil )out, bi-metal element is top at enterance of coil,cut both wire near bi-metal, join new bi-metal with wire nut or Insulated wire Jointer, Tape jonts proper,do neat work no hanging wire, Replace back removed parts back,Turn power back

We changed the valves first to try it and then we changed the ice maker. That worked. Thank you nephew for helping me.

Removal of the old heating element was really easy. The video on Partselect.com was majorly helpful in reassuring my confidence in doing this repair.

I watched your video and did just as he did. The video made it real easy and rather simple. It looked like it was going to be a mess until I watched the video.

Unplugged the refrigerator removed the cover and 3 screws. Pulled the old part off and replaced with the new and screwed it back on. Replaced the cover plugged it back in and it started working again.

One day the ice cream in the freezer seemed mushy, but the ice was still frozen. There was not water in the ice bin. However, the problem resolved itself. This suggested that the defrost timer had become stuck for an extended time, but then continued to run. The fact that the freezer went back to frozen, implies that all the components of the cooling loop (compressor, condenser & fan, evaporator & fan) were fine. It was possible that the problem was caused by a bad defrost (?evaporator?) thermostat but everything I saw on line suggested that the defrost timer is the culprit about 40 - 50% of the time. Anyway, I followed the instructions in the on-line video at this site for replacing the defrost timer and it was easy. It would have only taken 15 minutes, but I spent a while reading the defrost timer instructions and hunting down a schematic for my refrigerator, to determine which pin the loose wire should go on.

Removed outer cover. Removed control bracket which holds the water/ice dispenser paddles. Removed paddles from old/broken bracket, plastic pins were broken where the paddles hinge. Placed on new bracket placed screws and it was done. Very simple repair. Part cost less then $18.00 including shipping. Saved me mucho dollars!!!!

hardest part getting the putty knife in right place to pop off cover---found the plastic bracket was broken where the switch was held in place---- so ordered new switches and bracket ---- got the parts in 3 days--good service--easy job 2 do and saved lots of $$$$$$$$---

The ice maker installation video was a life saver. Thank you. Followed video instructions and removal of old unit and installation of new unit took almost no time. Again thank you for the excellent video.

I called the 800 number and the lady was great to work with and helped me thru all the order process and confirmed the numbers. She also told me she would try to get the order out that day which she did and I had the part two days later. When it arrived I went to the web site and reviewed the video and went to work and all went as the video said. Thanks for the help and if i need another part I will visit your site or call.

Ordered the part and within 8 minutes I had installed it without having to use any of the included wire harnesses. Was making ice within six hours. If you take your time before, review the handy video PartSelect provides online and prepare the work space it should be a snap. I can't say enough good things about the swift delivery and usefulness of the part. Also, best price I could find after shopping competitors. I highly recommend this project, it was easy and should make using your otherwise working refrigerator more enjoyable.
