Fridge side: Remove all door bins. Close the door. Pry off top hinge cap. Using 5/16" nut driver, remove three screws. Remove top hinge by lifting it up. Place pad on floor to prevent marring. Hold door at sides. Open door halfway and lift it up and off the bottom hinge. Do not let door fall! Set door on pad. The lower and upper cams are different; do not mix them up (check the parts list). Remove the old lower cam from the hinge (on fridge) and install new lower cam with new screw. Remove the old upper cam from the bottom of door and install new one with shoulder screw provided. If the old cam does not have the shim, do not use the shim from kit. The kit has extra parts and screws. Lift up the door and set it on the lower hinge pin and close it. Reinstall the upper hinge and shim loosely with the three screws. Adjust the door before tightening the screws. Check that the gasket is compressed evenly all around. Open and close the door. The door should close easily. If the door does not close easily, remove it again and smear some Vaseline on the lower hinge pin and cam. Replace the door and put a little Vaseline on the upper hinge pin before inserting it into the door. Finally, replace the upper hinge cap and replace the door bins. Repeat procedure for freezer side. This fridge does not have water/ice dispenser in the door.

I did exactly as the video showed. I popped out the old switch, disconnected the two terminals, connected the new switch and put it back. The light now works! The refrigerator is over 25 years old and the switch works! What a great website this is. Couldn't of done the job without Partselect's help.

Ice dispenser guide: Required a screwdriver for one screw and was done in minutes. Part fit was perfect. Door cam kit: shut off water to refrigerator. Remove lower vent and disconnect water line, mine had an in line coupler below the door. I raised the door with a simple car jack and removed all bolts to the door hinge and upper cam on under side of the door. Remove the spring over the hose and slide old pieces off of the line. Feed the new cam piece for door and install the one on the door hinge with supplied bolts and screws. Install hinge and spring back over the line and hinge to the refrigerator. Connect the water hose with the coupler and turn water back on. Cam kit makes door work like new. Replacement of all pieces above mentioned took about an half an hour. Well worth the time and cost. I figure would have cost about $100.00 + to have a repairman do this and I did it for $35.00 in parts.

Followed the instructions on package, went extremely well, with no problems what so ever! Thanks so much for the part and how to do list!

The fix was easy. I jacked up the unit and put on blocks. I used socket and ratchet removed the wheels. Reinstall new ones and let off the blocks.

replaced cam, new one broke after opening door 3 times...

A You Tube video described the repair steps and by following these instructions the whole process worked seamlessly.

Very easy!

Followed the awesome Youtube video posted by PartSelect! Gave me the confidence to do it, and I'm glad I did. Thanks everyone at PartSelect!

I took the freezer door handle off, removed the door panel covers, removed the ice/water cover, then removed the backing to expose the tubing from the broken spout to a coupling behind the enclosure. Cut the tubing to length on the replacement tip, secured coupling, installed adn then put the door back together.

I followed the video instructions. Additionally the ordering process was easy and efficient and I received the parts promptly. Ordered on on 7/29/12 and received the parts on 7/31/12.
