I received the part the very next day which was awesome, but when I went to install it, there was a connection discrepency on the back of the switch, and the screw holes were completely off in the front where it connects to the unit. I ended up taking the whole thing apart to try to put the old face with the right screw holes on the new p art and ruined it.

Received the thermost from you in 2 days. (fast and reasonable shipping)

Removed 2 control knobs and front cover.

Removed 2 screws holding controls mounting plate. (About 3 X 6 inches in size)

Removed 2 screws holding thermostat in place.
Installed new trhermostat.

Checked the RAC and all was OK.

As a matter of fact, I had to wait for the wife to finish cleaning the front of the RAC.

I am 75years young, retired, repaired appliances for a a short period when I was young before becoming a Factory sales rep. for RCA corp.

I appreciate your fast service and accurately sending me the actual part that I ordered.

Thanks again,
Frank

broken control knobs

  • JOHN from BLOOMFIELD, NM
  • Very Easy
  • Less than 15 mins
I opened the package. I tool out the plastic bag containing the replacement knobs. (I ordered two). I lined up the knob that needed replacing and pushed it on. The replacement knobs are of a better quality than the original and shouldn't break like the old ones. After this repair I was exhausted and took a nap.
