Compactor piston stuck in down position and couldn't open!!!
3 of 5 people found this instruction helpful.
  • George from Houston, TX
  • Easy
  • 15 - 30 mins
  • Nutdriver, Pliers, Screw drivers, Socket set
First thing I did was put the unit on its side and removed the bottom to access the broken plastic gear that moves the chain that drives the compactor up and down...There I was able to manually move the chain by turning the nut with pliers and moving the piston up (painfully slow) until I could at least use the bin for trash while I waite d for the replacement part to arrive. Once I had the part I loosened the four bolts that allowed the drive gear to move a little and slacken the chain - I then put in the new gear - make sure you have the proper spacing and washers - my replacement kit didn't have any washers so I resused the old washers and all seems to be working well!

Compactor draw was not opening fully as the wheel bearings had seized
2 of 2 people found this instruction helpful.
  • Andrew from ASHEVILLE, NC
  • A Bit Difficult
  • 30 - 60 mins
  • Socket set
I followed the you tube video instructions provided by customer care. This involved pulling the unit free from the cabinet, removing several screws that held the housing in place, this gave access to the wheel assembly, then I removed the nuts that held the wheel assembly in place. Fitting the new wheel assemblies was easy as was replacin g the housing screws. After reinserting the draw and pushing the unit back into the cabinet it worked like new

Took the 2 screws off the front, popped the switch out, copied the wires on to the new switch, and put it back. New switch does not have a light, so had to eleminate one power wire, put it back together, and it worked just like new.??

I just used the accompanying screw to attach the buttons to the 4 holes in the drawer. Simple stuff.

I do think I read that the Jenn-Air bags used to come with precut holes, and the bag wold slide over the buttons, holding it in place. I jus get the bag lined up and pulled over the drawer, and cut the holes myself. It works per fectly.
