10641212101 Kenmore Refrigerator - Instructions

Unscrewed the rear water valve and water line, and front water filter which allowed me to remove the old drip tray. New drip tray is smaller than the original tray, so I needed to put blocking in to keep tray under drip spout. Refastened the water filter, water valve and water line.

This is for the refrigerator, not the freezer door which is more complicated. First empty the refrigerator door of food and removed the shelves. Remove the hinge cover on the top hinge by removing one bolt. Then, holding the door, remove the top hinge by removing the three bolts in the bracket (not the bolt in the recessed hole). Lift the door off the lower hinge and lay the door on its edge on the floor. Pry the old Door Cam out of the hole in the door with a knife (my Door Cam was ground completely flat). Insert the new Door Cam. Remove the old Lower Door Cam from the lower hinge and insert the new Lower Door Cam. Pick up the door and lower the door onto the lower hinge ensuring the lower hinge pin inserts into the hole in the Door Cam on the door. Reinstall the upper hinge and insert bolts without tightening. Align door and then tighten hinge bolts. Reattach top hinge cover and tighten the single bolt. Test the door to ensure it closes and stays closed. I had to remove the door a second time to rotate the Door Cam slightly to ensure cams were better engaged (tongue in groove style) when the door was closed. Reinstall the shelves and load the door with food.

Ordered this extra door bin and got it in 2 days! fast shipping and easy install no tools required!

repair went good .only had problem removing tube from clip in front

After our four year old refrigerator door wouldn't stay closed as a do it yourself kinda gal I found this website that assisted me in an easy and inexpensive fix. The "plastic" yes, "plastic" piece on the bottom of the door was worn down to nothing. My only suggestion is to call in your order, the customer service folks will help you order the right cam for your model. The next thing is to change both cams if you have a side by side. We changed the fridge side which fixed the problem, then realized the cam on the freezer needed to be changed to make it level. Great customer service!

I spoke with a friend of mine who does refrigeration and he suggested that I check the starter. I pulled it out and read your site to confirm the problem. The starter had loose particles just as your site mentioned. I ordered the part on Wed. afternoon and received it the next morning. When it came I received two different pieces which allowed for a product upgrade if needed. It wasn't and after I put it in it worked great. Freezer to -20 degrees F. Thanks...JT from Lucas, Ohio.

I was a Sears repair man for fourty eight years , so I don"t think I should say how easy this was.

Once I determined easier access to the fan motor, I removed the three fan motor screws that held the motor on place. After removing the motor I remove the fan blade assembly held by one nut and reattached to the new motor. I then reattached the new motor with 3 new screws which were provide and reattached the power cord with the cord clip and began reassembling the icemaker housing, then moved the unit back in place which was installed under counter. I could do this repair in less than 45 minutes now that I have done it once. I saved several hundred $ from the original estimate and the parts were delivered in 2 days after I ordered online. This is definitely a DIY project!!

unplug freg.took everything out.pulled out shelves and pulled out back panel.their was my part i had to replace.

I was at a loss. Did not know where to find the part. Opened the website and navigated for a minute, then put in part number of the broken piece and the right part popped up! I ordered two and they came to my door in two days, popped into place and fit perfectly! Problem solved, no stress.....what a treat.

1. Unplug the refrigerator. 2. Remove the back cover at the bottom of the refrigerator. 3. Remove the two screws holding the vertical black bracket the fan is mounted to. This allows the bracket to move easily. The bracket does not have to be removed. 4. Removed the four screws holding the fan bracket to the vertical bracket. 5. Unplug the power connector from the fan motor. 6. Remove the entire fan bracket assembly from the refrigerator. 7. Remove the 4 screws holding the fan motor to the fan motor bracket and unmount the fan motor. 8. Remove the nut holding the fan blade to the fan motor and remove the fan blade. 9. Reverse the process, mounting the fan blade to the new motor, screw the motor to the bracket, screw the bracket to the vertical bracket, screw the vertical bracket to the refrigerator and plug the power connector back into the motor. I did not have to use any of the extra mounting hardware or electrical hardware provided with the kit. It might be a good idea to purchase a new fan blade with the motor kit, the fan blade can get pretty grungy. I cleaned the fan blade with some degreaser before remounting it.

Took the bolts at the bottom of the door off and removed the door. Pried out the old cam and put the new one in. Put the door back on and it works like it is brand new. The fridge is 13+ years old

I read prior postings about how the compressor start relay was the most likely failed part based upon the periodic clicking as well as the rattle when the relay was shaken, with loose metal particles coming out of the original part. I ordered the replacement for next business day delivery and it arrived on schedule. The replacement kit comes with two relays for two different compressor designs. The correct relay is an exact replacement for the original, with the same part numbering. I removed the compressor start capacitor (a small black rectangular box with two metal terminals) from the original relay and installed it on the new part. The replacement kit comes with a black plastic cover, which did not fit since the start capacitor is in the way. I reinstalled the wire hook that secures the relay to the compressor body, and the refrigerator now works great.

true story! ordered the part on sunday by e-mail.by tursday had'nt received it yet.so i called and they had no record of it. so i reordered it on the phone right then. the next day @ noon it came.i had my daughter take a picture of the part on the compressor so that it would be easire to put back together. i had'nt opened the new part yet because i wouldn't be able to retun it if it was opened.i took the old part off the compressor and the new part matched the old part. so i put it on ,it took less than a minute. started the refridgerator and the compressor started running. cooling off just fine and making ice.i am a happy customer!!

got new part it was easy fix thanks
