CSC24GRSBAD Hotpoint Refrigerator - Instructions

We watched the video and it was super easy! Once the circuit board was replaced, everything worked perfectly! Thanks so much for helping us keep this refrigerator in working order!

Removed freezer door, put a blanket over the opening to keep food frozen. Installed hinge and replaced door.

the pad is a slip in I just used grease to allow for the friction and had it in with in a minute

Followed the u tube video that was on the Part select website. Very easy install when following the video.

I first replaced the ice bucket which allowed the auger to turn but did not fix the problem. I then ordered a new solenoid and plunger and after installing them it now makes ice cubes. Problem solved.

Removed frame, unscrewed the electrical panel, and popped the flapper off. Installed new flapper. Replaced the electrical panel and re-installed the frame.

Fairly easy I pull the fridge foward and remove the backing board and notice the fan wasn't working, so I remove the fan and bench tested and it was burned then I clean the condenser with compress air if you don't have air then a vacuum cleaner works then once the part arrived I install it the now if working very good

Removed the ice maker control panel and accessed the flapper door, easy switch out for new door and seal. The 2 year old warped seal didn't close and so ice crystals formed in the freezer - new unwarped part and Ta-Da no more problems :)

1. Turn water supply off at wall. Unpulg referigerator. Remove all cardboard backing covering valve. Vaccum under ref. Unscrew water line where it attaches to valve on ref. (Reuse this later) unplug 4 electrical prongs. Mark with colored pen if not already color coded, so can put back correctly. Pull old ice maker and ref water supply out of valve if it does not screw in with nut. Cut very short peice off end of ref water lines. Slide new locks on water supply lines and push into water valve very hard to lock. Cant get them wrong as they are different sizes. Plug in electrical connectors same as you unpluged them. Connect water line to valve from wall. Turn water on and check for leaks. If none. Replace all screws on backing. Recheck for water on floor. If none congrads, just saved yourself about $120. 00 Labor. Take 2 asprin, drink a six pack and go to bed.

Best for 2 people on this repair as 1 person needs to hold the door and the other position the bottom pin in place on reassembly. On my side by side I was replacing the cam on the cold food side, not the freezer. But I got down and inspected both the broken cam and the cam on the side that wasn't broken to understand how the parts fit together. Each door has 2 cams that work/fit together. So be sure the one you are replacing is installed properly (flat side towards the door body). Remove all contents from inside door including the shelves. Use a phillips screwdriver to remove the cover plate on the top hinge. Use tape or a marker to mark on the refrigerator top a corner of where the bracket is positioned, for proper placement on reassembly. While someone is holding the door, remove the 2 bolts from the top bracket (or the back one is just loosened so bracket can be moved out of the way). Lift door off the bottom pin. Turn the door on its side to expose the bottom bracket. There should be 2 bolts here. The furthest one from the pin only needs to be loosened. The other bolt will need to be removed but as you do this be sure to not let the other 2 metal pieces fall out. Remove the broken cam and replace with the new part. Realign the parts and bracket over the pin rod hole and tighten both bolts. Replace the door onto the bottom pin. Then add top bracket and align it to the marking and screw back in these 2 bolts. Test door for any needed adjustments (I had none). Then replace the top bracket cover with its screw. Voila! Clean the shelves and put them in the door and fill them up. :-)

I had to defrost large chunks of ice from the rear of the freezer compartment and tried reactivating the ice maker several times before deciding to order the replacement fill tube grommet and clamp. This was very stressful and complicated to accomplish while trying to avoid food spoilage, and consumed a lot of time. It involved removing the ice maker and various panels, plus disconnection of 2 electrical plugs, then using a hair dryer to melt ice build up. The installation of the new parts was quick and simple once they arrived in the mail, and this appears to have solved the leak problem. The fill tube slides easily into the grommet and the clamp, tightened with a screw driver, secures the water feed line on the other end. Fill tube must be carefully threaded through rear panels and into the ice maker receptacle and the grommet needs to be pushed hard and wiggled in order to seat properly in the rear surface of the refrigerator.

Popped off the front frame and front of mother board. unscrewed the assembly to be able to lift up to get to flapper. Lifted it up out of the the way ( wires are attached so it may take one other person to hold it up out of the way). Pop out the old flapper and replace with new one. Easy !

replaced with new ones

Repair went exactly like the video. With this video it was easy to make the repair. There were no surprises or problems and I felt confident in the videos instructions. It was like pushing the easy button.

Did the repair jut like the instructions on the web site stated. There was a good video for doing this repair. Looked at it a couple of times and did the repair right off the bat. Thanks folks.
