WRS23MF5ASA Westinghouse Refrigerator - Instructions

The switch prevented the door from closing about 5 years ago. So I just taped the switch down, and lived without a fridge light for the last 5 years. Painful! And wasteful (food spoiled because we couldn't see it.) Thought I was out of luck, assuming light switches were all the same, got fed up again, and pulled out old switch,,and searched the net for the part number, and just started calling the manufacturer. I got this website after no luck in calling, and took the step to order...and in no time, got it replaced, and we cam see now! It feels like we got a new fridge!

I read the instructions that came with the ice actuator. I installed it, with no problem, but it didn't work because the ribbon power cable was damaged. I ordered the cable and installed in less than 15 minutes. The ice actuator and water dispenser worked fine.

The repair was a simple swap of icemakers with a 1/4" nutdriver. I didnt get the first unit sent after 7 days, so I called PartSelect. They were very courteous and understanding. My icemaker arrived within 12 hours of my phone call! Excellent!

Emptying the shelves took longer that unscrewing old part and replacing with new part. Works perfect!

Replaced water filler. Easy

I removed the ice bucket from the freezer, took the front off with a screw driver, and then put the front on the new bucket and replaced it in the freezer. It was very easy.

It is very easy..........push button on the exissting filter. It removes easly, then insert new one. Remember to run the water for 3 minutes before next use. It took about 5 minutes.

The screws holding the ice maker in place were backed out about a turn and a half or so. The icemaker was raised about 1/2 inch to clear the bolt heads. The icemaker was extended just enough to access the wiring harness connector. The connector was released, and the ice maker was removed. The replacement unit extension was unneeded. The wiring harness connector was attached, and the wire was wire-tied out of the way. The icemaker unit was placed over the screw heads, rested in place and the screws were tightened (only snug). Easy-peasy!

The repair was easy,after I ordered the wrong part twice,called customer service,Patrica helped me determined the correct part,explained how to returned wrong parts,refunded my money. I recieved the right part, installed it, drawer works fine,thank you for the wonderful service, if I ever need appliance parts again,I'll call partselect first. THANKS DAVE

I removed the drip pan in the ice/water well. Then I removed the 3 screws holding the front control plate and disconected the front control from the ice/water dispenser.

I then removed the ice/water dispenser by removing 3 screws, disconecting the wire block and removing the water hose.

The actuatior was easily replaced (4 screws) and I reversed the whole process to put everything back together.

One other note, the actuatior had been redesigned and the replacement seems to be much stronger than the original... shouldn't have to do this again.

First I removed the Item out of the trays located on the door Then I removed the two screws that held the door in place> Lift the door of its location lay it on a flat surface. Counter top on a drop cloth. Remove old broken bearing< install new bearing. Replace door, install screws. Like new. I am a female and I was very proud of myself.

was very easy. just ordered a new ice maker which was delivered in a few days. The installation was so simple. Just plugged the new ice maker in and hung the unit on the 2 screws. And then tightened the screws with a 1/4 in nut driver.

I used a flat head screwdriver to pry open the front of the socket as I pushed the socket toward the freezer side. I unplugged the two wires connected to the socket then re-connected the two wires to the new socket and popped the new socket back in. I then put a new light bulb in and we had light again in the fridge.

This would have been an easy repair, but I bought the Frig from Lowes and I think they added the icemaker. The replacement icemaker uint has a plug on it for easy replacement. My frig was hard wired so I had to cut off the plug and splice the wires. Not a real big deal but a small work space.

All I did was follow the instructions Jonathan from Texas posted and it was very easy. Thanks to him!!!
