CSK27PFXDAA Hotpoint Refrigerator - Instructions

I had read from your sight, to simply cut the lines at the reservoir and tape the new lines to the old. Then use the old lines to pull/feed the new lines to the coupler/valve. This worked great and greatly decreased the time it took to install. I spent more time moving out the frig and cleaning up all the dust (probably should do that more often)

I disconnected power to the refrigerator. Pried the face plate plate off the front of dispenser(plastic plate that has symbols for ice, water, light). Removed four screws. Gently removed and unplugged dispenser controller (You have to remove the rubber cover of the actuator - it pops off). Removed one screw to dispenser assembly crank. Assembled flapper, spring, and crank. Re-assembled in reverse order.

We were really afraid we wouldn't find the parts we needed for out older refrigerator/freezer, but found exactly what we needed at PartSelect.com. Everything was shipped to our door very quickly, and all were very easy to put back together, so we once again have ice! Thanks.

I watched the Utube video, repeated the process at home while awaiting the part, and installed the flapper door in about 15 minutes after it arrived--piece of cake. The hardest part was removing the escutcheon plate on the front of the freezer door. I figured out I could slide a putty knife under it and the rest of the project was completed in no time at all.

It never occured to me that those tracks could be taken out and given a good cleaning. We would take the drawers out and clean them, but trying to clean the tracks of the brackets while in the refrigerator was clumsy and ineffective. I also thought the appliance was too old to get parts for. When the bracket broke, I decided to see what I could find on the internet before going out to buy a new refrigerator. Taking everything out of the fridge and removing and properly cleaning everything took quite some time and effort, but actually changing out the part was easy. It would have been even easier if I had a magnetic screwdriver, but I managed without one.

Removed screwes of old part and re installed new part. Easy

The flapper on the ice chute was curled up and not creating a good seat, so the chute kept clogging up with frozen condensation, especially during the humid summer months. The online video made it so easy to replace the part myself. I was able to fix the problem in under 15 minutes and at a fraction of the price!

Took out one hex screw, disconnect electric couplings, pulled original ice maker out and found that the water supply line to the ice maker was frozen solid as well as the shute cup. Used hair dryer to thaw out the line and the cup reinstaled old ice maker and it worked fine. Did not have to use the new part at all at this time. Am keeping new part for future use.

I followed the video instructions to the letter and it was very easy and a total success. I believe I would have had problems but for thr video demonstration which was very clear and straight forward in a simple manner. Thanks for the prompt delivery of the part and the help installing it.

Looked at the instructional video and read previous customer comments. Didn't have to dissassemble rear of freezer door. Access through the front once trim ring and circuit board removed. Could not have done it with out the video/and or previous customer comments. Part was shipped and received immediately. Repairs complete! No more frost developing and plugging ice chute! I especially appreciate the customer comments on how to complete this repair!

removed screws which were two of them put new catch on and replaced the screws

Followed video. Changing flap was not difficult but did not fix the problem.

Watch online video on how to change icemaker flap! Video was great exactly how to do it, with a link to order the part

Googled how to replace the door seal, ordered parts and replaced the door seal flapper. The video on partselect was not correct for this GE model. However a simple diagran showed you simply remove the control panel directly (pops off) to provide access to the panel. Remove the 4 screws holding the panel, replace the door seal, and reassemble.

The adapter made the cord a bit long but other than that it was great!!!
