EF36IWFSS Dacor Refrigerator - Instructions

I was quoted by two repair contractors $125.00 & $149.00 for parts and labor. I paid $16.00 for the pantry end cap plus shipping. Followed the online video from JennAir ....and repaired myself in less than 15 minutes

I order a bare crisper frame, no glass, no slider controls. The old frame lifted out easily. I did not realize the glass top is not glued in, because food drippings had it somewhat stuck in place. But only somewhat - I almost dropped the glass when I turned the frame over. Once the glass was out, I removed the humidity sliders by gently lifting one end so I could slide them to a place where they lifted off. (Look for the notch-outs.) Then I put the parts in the new frame and put it back in the frig.

Got the main bolts off and unplugged and removed the ice maker. Had to remove all parts and rebuild it on the new mold. Was more complex than I thought but was able to get it done. Note where everything was as you take it off and you'll do fine.

The replacement itself was as easy as it gets. What made it harder was the need to remove the white plastic cover from the old drawer. Although some said it was easy, ours was a bit of a challenge. The video was helpful, in letting us know to start at the bottom when removing the cover. After that, pretty easy. No tools required.

Unplugged appliance. Using a small putty knife I moved the switch out far enough to grab it with pliers. Moved wiring to new switch and pushed into place after testing.

After plugging in the new relay to no avail. I replaced the thermostat. That fixed the problem.

The parts arrived as expected, and well packed. Replacing the crisper drawer was, obviously, easy--just switch the food over and slide it in. The pantry end cap had a broken peg on the hinge cover, so wouldn't open properly without falling off. It was a little more involved, with a total of 5 screws, but I followed the instructions and video already posted on this website, and had no trouble! Gave me a good excuse to wipe down the inside of the fridge. Both repairs plus the cleaning took me about 25 minutes.

Followed video instructions online.

No repair necessary. Just slid the new bin in . Couldn't be easier!

I went online entered the make and model. The drawings were very helpful. I was able to find the part I needed. I ordered it and it was delivered in about 4 days. I replaced the old part very easily. I couldn't believe how easy it was. I most likely saved about $200 doing it myself.

I removed the old pantry door by pushing out on the hinge pins and then installed the new door the same way. Part replacement took about 1 minute.

As per instructions to replace filter

I used a knife blade to slip under the edge of old switch to pray it out of the hole it was inserted into, switched the wires and replaced the new switch into the same hole. It took about five minutes!

Pretty much as described in the video except the drawer slides are held in place with phillips head screws not quarter inch nuts.
