WRS26MF5AW3 Westinghouse Refrigerator - Instructions

When my side by side Kenmore refrigerator quit keeping the top half of my freezer and refrigerator cold I called Sears to see how much it would cost to get it checked out and fixed. Bottom line it was going to cost minimum $65 (which was just for him to come out) to $250 on up depending on what the problem was. So i decided to "do it myself"! I took it apart and within a few minutes figured out that it was my evaporator fan. So I went to sears to order the part based on the part number and with shipping and handling it was going to cost $125. While at sears I got on one of their computers and quickly looked up Kenmore parts and partselect.com came up and I quickly found the part for $62 and I chose overnight delivery and spent a total of like $83. When my part arrived I realized that the wiring/plug ins didn't quite match up. So I got online and went to their website and found a video for "do it yourself'ers" like me on how to splice the wiring to make it match. It took me about 20 min to splice the wire and put my refrigerator back together and IT WORKED! Easy easy easy and I saved moocho bucks! Ill never pay a repairman again. Oh and by the way, I am blond! :-)

Watched the how to vidio on line, would have probabley opened up the freezer door from the inside if I hadn't watched the vidio first. Vidio said about 10 minutes to repair and that's about what it took. Great info.

Took the parts out of the box and snapped them in place, package un wrap time and install time 7 minutes or less. Simple way easy! Aaa plus cust service, thanks ruben~vic & di

Straight forward, identified the replacement part and followed the simple video that was posted on partselect.com. Very easy to find the part and do the install, 2 minutes tops. Replaced water filter, push the eject button on the old filter and push in the new filter.

snapped in the new bin

I tapped in the peg like it showed in video and pried out with flat screw driver and hammered other peg in flush with part

unplugged frig, removed shelves & inner lower back panel in freezer side, removed defrost thermostat from tube, cut the wires and spliced in new stat wires with provided wire splices crimped together and replaced thermostat on tube it has been a week and no ice so far??. this was after 2 trips by the repairman who replace the defrost timer board which was most likely good at a total of $160!!! still cheaper than $1000 for a new frig!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

watched the attached video and repeated the steps super easy once you know how. less than 10 mins start to finish

First I am a 68 yr. old woman, I watched the video that you provide to replace the door closure hinge bearing and the door closing cam, got out the tools you said I would need, Put a blanket on the floor, removed the top hinge, layed the door down, exchanged out the hinge bearing and cam, screwed them in, replaced the door, put cap on the top hinge and was finished. It took less than 20 minutes from start to finish. Also I would like to tell that after the door is emptied it is very light. My husband who recently had back surgery watched in awe!

Pooped the old one out and pooped the new one in.Item was in stock, very fast delivery.

Took out the ice box, dumped the ice. Let warm up a bit. Then took out the housing and installed the new one. Works great. Saved a lot of money! Only took a couple days to receive the part. Great service.

Just slipped the bin in place. Very easy. Took less than 2 minutes

This was the second time the part had failed and it was time to replace it. Rsther than hope a local store may have the part, I went on the internet and found PartSelect.com and ordered what I thought was the right part and it arrived here in Texas the next day! Turned out to be the wrong part. Oops! I contacted PartSelect by email to see if I could return the part and got an imediate response from Denise with the address ad instructions for returning the part and a very generous offer to help select the right psrt. I gave her the refrigerator/freezer model number and she immediately respoded with the part number. I rerordered the part and it again arrived the next day. I slipped it into place on the refrigerator door and it fit!! End of problem but not quite the end of the story. I received an email a couple of days later informing me that the money due me from the first order was on it's way. Color me a very happy customer!!

thanks to all of the people who had the same problems I was able to make a quick fix on my fridge. I pulled the back cover off and found the compressor not kicking on so I replaced the start cap. and im back in bussiness.

When my wife and kids moved down they lost the upper bracket and the screw for the lower cam. parts show up and matched perfectly to the orginal no issues at all
