CST20KAXFWH Hotpoint Refrigerator - Instructions

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

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

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. :-)

replaced with new ones

Removed the back panel in freezer, all coils were frozen solid. Turned power off to thaw out. Used info on Parts Select website to determine what was needed to repair. Parts came very quick and it is now working just fine.

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.
