After watching the video on your web site the repair was very easy. It took only 15 minutes to replace the valve.

I watched the video which gave me confidence that I could do the repair which I did in very little time. One thing to emphasize though: When you remove the vertical wire connector from the back of the freezer compartment, remember which color wire is on the top. I needed to watch the repair video a second time to be able to make that determination. Probably the repair video should have mentioned keeping track of that connector regarding the re-connection of it because it could also connect when turned 180 degrees.

I watched a youtube video and completed the repair in less than an hour from start to finish and save myself a service charge. It was fairly easy, the only problem was that it was a bottom freezer and getting to the ice maker was harder than if it was a side by side or top freezer.

I order the part from Part Select and watched "How to Replace the Dual Water Valve" video that was offered on the Part Select web site. I followed the process and easily replaced the part. I was quite pleased with the service from Part Select.

replaced left side plastic plate.

My husband had to do this before (bad refrigerator design), so he methodically removed the assembly, replaced the part and replaced all pieces.

I used the video on your website. It made me feel very satisfied that I was able to do it myself!

When the new part arrived we snapped on the new one. Just make sure the draw is closed all the way before closing the refrigerator doors, that's is how mine got broke.

I unplugged the fridge. Then I removed the ice bucket. Then I removed the ice maker using a 3/4 socket to separate the connections and then used a small screwdriver to separate whatever connections were left. Then I installed the new ice maker and checked its level. Everything now works fine.

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

This is the second time I have had to replace the right side pantry cap, and have replaced the left side once. The pins on the end caps are flimsy plastic and it doesn't take much for them to break off. That said, the part arrived two days after I ordered it. A 1/4" nutdriver is all you need to replace it. Take the storage bins above the pantry out and the glass cover and support bars over the pantry out. There are two or three 1/4" bolts holding the pantry end cap in place. The right side pantry cap is connected to a sliding mechanism to open the air/temperature control opening on the the interior back wall of the refrigerator. This long piece on the back has a small tab that inserts in a slot at the left side. After removing the bolts, remove the pantry cap and the air control mechanism as one piece. Use the nutdriver to remove the metal drawer slides from the broken cap and transfer to the new cap. Carefully work the plastic sliding mechanism from the backside of the end cap to remove it and the temperature control lever from the front of the end cap. A little patience, prying and turning of the pieces to remove them is required. Transfer to the new end cap in the reverse manner. Reinsert temperature control into slot at back and bolt the end cap back into place.

Refrigerator was not cold.

I had this problem before and it was the control vale in the back of the refrigerator. I ordered it and change that out in 5 minutes. That wasn’t the problem. I had the repairman come over and within 5 minutes he told me what the problem was. He showed me where the control board was. He then walked me through the removal process.

First remove the light cover on the Freezer & Refrigerator in front where the light button is located. Pull down on the front of the light cover. It pops out.

Second, in the front of the freezer & refrigerator temp control panel put your fingertips in front of the panel and pull down it’s hard to get the pins to release but the front pins will release, then pull down a little to allow the back hooks to release. (You can use a small common screwdriver if you can’t get it with your fingertips).

Next, once the panel is removed then disconnect the wiring harness. Then bring the panel to the counter, this is where you remove the circuit card and replace it. There are 4 hooks that hold the circuit board in place. Use a small common screwdriver to push the hooks away from the board. The new board comes as one piece. The board is perforated to allow you to snap the board. Directions come with the board and how to snap it. You will need to pay attention on how you removed the board. You will need to put the new board in the same way it came out.

Once the board is re-installed and lock into position reverse the process and install the control panel back into position.

Next is the programing of the board. Follow the directions that come with the control board and you will be back in business

This task took about 15 minutes to remove & replace and to program.
