Replace switch
Read previous tips Taped off area around switch to protect surface Used putty knife to extract switch Used screwdriver to separate connector from switch Plugged in connector Pushed switch assembly into opening Removed tape
the light did not work when door was opened. At first it would flicker then off completely.
My son just pried out the old switch with a screw driver snapped out the old one and snapped in the new one. Pretty sure even I could have done this. Very quick and easy. Thanks. :-)
Cover the putty knife with tape so you do not scratch the side wall where the switch is located. Slide the knife under the edge of the switch and push in a bit towards the switch and slightly twist to pop the switch out of its hole. Disconnect the wires from the switch and simply plug in the new switch. Push wiring back into the hole and careful push the switch into the hole until it snaps into place.
Used a screwdriver to remove covers. Used a blow dryer to defrost coil in freezer. Cut zip tie and removed old controller assembly. Inserted new controller assembly and secured with zip tie. It took 24 hours for the fridge to cool completely. Now it works fine.
Refrigerator light had a short in it and would randomly work
Unplugged the fridge. Used a screwdriver to loosen the switch. Easy to disconnect from fridge and just plugged the new switch in. Popped right back into the side of the fridge and worked perfectly.
I could not figure out from the online manual just what to do or what part to order as the pictures of parts were so small. I had to call the company and explain what happened. You sent the gasket holder that I needed. I had to call my handy man to install. It did not take him toof long to figure out what to do.
Door latch (cam) at door top broke off from the gasket holder. Gasket was fine so only needed new holder.
Gasket held in place by plastic bezel. Remove bezel by carefully pulling it toward you. Held in place by plastic clips. May need to pry carefully near clips. Pull gasket away from front edge of door. Gasket holder held by plastic swivel pieces top and bottom. Snap these out. Slide the gasket holder off the gasket. Remove the screws and slip the metal rod out of the broken holder. Retain screws, plastic clips, and cam. Slide the rod into new holder adding plastic clips and cam. Replace screws. Slide holder back onto gasket. Snap plastic clips into slots, being careful to bend the springs back so they go into the channel. Replace bezel. See videos on replacing door gaskets.
After reviewing the parts picture of the left door I was able to disasemble the door gasket to replace the gasket holder which also mounts the brocken cam. No specail tools needed.
The fridge died and couldn't find right parts needed
I was told the mother board went out. Took a few months to finally get one myself after repairman didn't come through. It turned out not to be the motherboard that sears repairman tested it for and said that's what it needed. I found Parts select after going round and round with sears parts refusing to accept return. There prices were better, as well as shipping and it came so quick i thought it was over night. The controller assembly was not the problem so we have it for a spare now. It was the freezer fan but even after installing it nothing would work is why we ordered the controller assembly. after 2 days and about 7 hours of checking, taking apart, rechecking assembling by my determined electrician it turned out to be a loose wire. LOL hope this helps someone. I'm just glad to have my fridge again! Blessings!!!
