WRS6W1EW5 Westinghouse Refrigerator - Instructions

Called repair person, 80.00 to come look at it. Deceided to see if I could find part on my own. Surfed the net found this website, ordered the part for 5.00, total 13.00 including shipping. waited a few days, received part in mail, lifted refrigerator door off hinge, inserted the part. Works like new. 80.00 plus repair, cost me 13.00. Amazing

great less than 5 minutes

First off make sure you have a good quality Phillips screw driver. When the blade is worn out you can disassemble the ice maker with out removing the front. But to reassemble the front cover must be removed. Do yourself a favor and buy the drum and nut also. I am a mechanic by trade so the tools and repair was really easy. Be careful of the ice crusher BLADES they are very sharp. If your not mechanically inclined take pictures before disassembly, that will help you greatly. Hope this helps someone. Thanks Rory

Pushed the bins in place,very easy.

I looked up the model number here& found the parts list. They were very detailed, making identification of the proper part easy. I then watched the repair video which showed just how easy this repair was to complete. Once the part arrived, I removed the hinge cover screw, removed the two hinge bolts and lifted the door off the bottom hinge. It took the most amount of time to remove the broken hinge bearing. The new one popped right into place. I reversed the process and was quickly finished.

Put in the new one!

Crusher housing had broken so I ordered the part and replaced it. I have since put it back together twice. When I first installed it it crushed the ice no problem. From that point on it seems to lock up and won't crush the ice, cube ice works but the blades seems to hang up after the first use. I can turn the cog by hand but I have to turn it backwards a few times before it turns freely, however it still won't crush the ice. I took it apart and put it back together again. Same thing happened after the first time I tried it. Can you help me. The old crusher broke into. Could something else be locking up?Thanks for the help

Replaced the broken bin

snapped the wires from frig onto the proper prong and viola,it works. The proper prong is identified by the size because there are two prongs with the wires and two connecting prongs in the socket. I talked to a very helpful representative and she gave me the number for Frigidaire, when I was confused by the placement of the wire. Wish I had remembered her name to share with you. As it turned out I didn't need to call Frigidaire.

I first ordered the part from a local appliance/repair store in my area. The part was way over priced and they had ordered the wrong part when I went to pick it up. I had provided a picture of the part I need to them / it didn't help. I searched the internet for the needed part and found PartSelect. I found the exact part "I thought I needed" and also saw an additional hinge part that fit in the bottom of the door. I purchased both (figured if one was worn out the other would be soon). Turned out that it was "the additional part" that I needed. I would recommend that you suggest both parts when doing this particular repair. I also liked the fact that you provided pictures of the parts in question . . . recognized it immediately from your site. The repair video provided on the PartSelect sight was very helpful. The repair was a breeze for an old woman. I was very happy with the person who took my order (she was very nice and very professional); and the speed in which I received the part. PartSelect is now saved in my favorites for future reference. I recommend them highly. Thanks for your help. Beverly Brunner

Installed the bins on the doors,no tools req.

just snapped part unto door.

Ordered and received new shelf. Replacement took about one minute.

Had them in a couple of days. Very impressive. I've recommended this site to many friends.

Watched the Parts Select video associated with this part. Very easy repair. Removed the right-hand door, removed the broken hinge, popped in the new part, applied some lubrication and put the door back on. Lengthiest part was removing food items from the door in preparation for the job. Highly recommend watching the video first as it shows you exactly what to do and how easy this job is.
