XRBS017BW (PXRBS017BW1) Amana Refrigerator - Instructions

Took out the old and slipped the new

This is an easy fix, simply remove and replace. What I was impressed with is that a how to video was provided along with my part. I wish all manufactures would offer this, the video was easy to understand and you had a good view of the operation. Thanks, a job well done.

I watched the on line you tube video on how to DIY. The putty knife worked to pop out the switch. I used the standar screwdriver to unplug the switch from the wire harness. Then plug in the new switch and pop it back in to the roof of the freezer. Tip: watch out when ordering the new switch - the freezer switch is different than the refrigerator switch. The freezer has three prongs. The fridge has two. I initially ordered the wrong part and added a week to the repair time and had to pay shipping to return the first switch.

took off the ice maker, unscrewed the body, replace icemaker shut-off arm, water fill cup & bearing, reconnected the unit & have ice now, Thank you PartSelect

Open box put shelf in

Sorry for delay in writing. Part I ordered arrived two days ago and it was exactly what I needed. Knowing that there will be problems even with the smallest job I procrastinated starting. When I did start this morning I foud I had to completely remove the ice maker and disassemble it in order to install the water fill cup bracket. The challenge was reassembling the unit. Not hard for an experienced repairman but a challenge for layman. Everything is thing is back to gether now and power on cooling down the refrigerator. Won't know how successful it was until turn on water and ice is formed. If it works this saved $75 just to get a Sears repairman to come out and tell me what would be needed to fix the refrigerator and $1,000 if I had to buy a new refrigerator. Extremely satisfied with service I received. Thank you.

Excellent easy to follow video. Had expected a hassle but whole repair was very smooth and everything worked as shown in video. Sure beats impossible to follow drawings. My wife was amazed I could do it...usually I can't fix anything!

WAY EASY! Very cost affected. Very frustrating that the peg used to secure the chef's pantry cover is molded into the side piece. Bad design by Amana but PartSelect helps make it a easy, cheap repair if it breaks off. This piece broke VERY easily as it is a little flimsy.

I went online entered the make and model. The drawings were very helpful. I was able to find the part I needed. I ordered it and it was delivered in about 4 days. I replaced the old part very easily. I couldn't believe how easy it was. I most likely saved about $200 doing it myself.

I used a knife blade to slip under the edge of old switch to pray it out of the hole it was inserted into, switched the wires and replaced the new switch into the same hole. It took about five minutes!

I watched your "silent video". I am a 62 year old woman that is very hands on when it comes to tools and power tools. It was very easy.

I'm uoset that I sat and looked at the broken piece for a month wondering"what the heck is this going to cost me" The more you spend on the appliance the more they break. The repair was too easy. Remove the 2 drawers, remove the bottom draw and there are 3 nuts you need to back off. The whole piece comes off really easy. I left the drawer glide on and took it off after the whole piece was out. Attach the glide to new piece put it in place and screw it back together. Now gow wash the drawers and glass that you have been putting off and reinstall them. Start to finish 10 minutes,.
