86058 (P7812530W) Amana Refrigerator - Instructions

I used the original connector from the spent thermostat and waterproofed the connection with a 16g wire nut and electric tape. Works great! In hindsight I would have ordered the part earlier as this is a typical solution to a freezer frosting over. Manual defrost is a pain!

I noticed that the refrigerator was having trouble maintaining temperature. Thought it might be time for new one until I found out that a new frig was $5k to $7K. Just happened to notice that the light switch didn't look quite right (was not sitting sqaure to the door). Once I pressed it it came loose. I then realized the the lights we ... Read more re staying on (50 watts of heating). Replaced the switch and the frig started working like new.

After disconnecting the electricity. I followed the instructions as indicated in the "HOW TO" article on the website. I used a steel putty knife and pried the light switch out of its retaining hole. I worked the right side the most since this is the side with the retaining clip. After I removed the switch I transferred the two electrical ... Read more outlets to the new switch and easily snapped it into place. Engaged the electric power and tested the switch.

After 4 weeks of calling the appliance people back when they ignored me, only to be told they couldn't find the part, I spent 5 minutes on partselect.com. That's all it took! Ordered the part, arrived the NEXT DAY, a quick 10 minutes (mostly to open the package using a butter knife), and my fridge door handle was replaced! Thank you Pa ... Read more rtselect.com for making my day! I know where to go now FIRST...before even bothering to call the appliance repair people!

Two screws was all that needed to be done. BUT, don't throw away your old handle insert as the new handle doesn't include one and would look funny without it.

Removed the screws...hold handle in left hand...replaces screws. Rocket science!

Great service. Unpluged old switch and pluged in new one. Works great

Part was easy to order, delivered quickly, installation very easy. Just unplug the unit, pop out the old swich using a screwdriver, disconnect and reconnect leads and pop switch back in. Definitely recommend that you can do it too.

removed the 2 screws that held the panel in place, had to reach up and push on locking tabs to lower trhe front of the panel. was able to then push on the locking tab of the switch to release it. removed the wires, replaced them onto the new switch, and snapped the switch into place. the rest was reverse of the uninstall process.

Used a screwdriver to pry loose the old switch, swapped wires to the new switch and pushed it into the opening. Took about 2 minutes.

disconnected el. power to fridge. pried out broken switch with small screwdriner and pulled out w/water pump pliers. installed new switch and pressed into opening.

Just like the video showed me.It still does not work. Have to turn it off and on to make it start up.I also replaced thermostat in freezer. Does not work.

Pry old switch and pull out. Disconect two wires. Put two wires on new switch, must be inserted right and connections not loose. Put switch in, making shure wies do not come off and snap in place
