ARB8057CSR (PARB8057CS0) Amana Refrigerator - Instructions

I simply followed the online instructions. Easiest repair job I have done. Once installed, which took about ten minutes, it was producing ice in less than two hours and is performing as it should. Had my frig not been a bottom freezer the installation would have taken less than five minutes. And to let everyone know, the on line instructions came in very handy during the removal process. Many thanks.

Followed the video, 5 minutes later new piece installed. Unfortunately, the new plastic is like the old and the same defect could easily recur. thanks

I ordered the replacement parts on line and received it a few days later. Thought I'd wait till the weekend to install the new parts. I expected it to take longer so I waited. Boy was I wrong. The hardest part was unloading the top shelf of the freezer. And it took longer to go get the nutdriver. I should have put it in immediately. Thanks for the instructional video. Works like a dream NO LEAKS. Will use your services on other parts as needed. Don from Pittsubrgh, PA.

Followed video advice

I followed the electrical circuit and noted that both the fan and compressor were powered on a circuit that goes thru the Freezer Thermostat. Lights are on a separate circuit. Since neither the fan motor or the compressor were doing anything, I guessed the problem must be with the Freezer Thermostat. To test this I shorted the Thermostat and the fan and compressor started immediately. I ran the fridge in this mode for a few minutes to determine if it was cooling. When I was satisfied that it was, I ordered the Thermostat. Replacement took only a few minutes using a screwdriver and pliers. Fridge works perfectly now.

just had to remove the fan motor the hard thing is getting down to it

Took off the shelf abovethe rail and slid into the receiver in back and front. BTW, cant say enough good about the customer service received from Part Select! They were awesome!

Removed malfunctioning icemaker and discovered that inlet water line was frozen. Thawed line using hairdryer and problem resolved. Returned new icemaker to PartSelect they promptly credited my credit card account. Problem solved.

I discovered that the water inlet was freezing, then the incoming water would run into the tray. I watched the video, then removed the ice maker. I discovered the the top two screwed just had to be loosened, not removed. I removed the bottom screw and move the ice maker to the side to disconnect the wiring harness. I found it to hard to disconnect. The pinch clips did not depress as they were supposed to, but the finally release. I did the replace without unplugging the refrigerator and it went fine. Took less than 15 minutes.

I removed and inspected the old unit and found the tray coating was flaking off. I ordered the new ice maker on line, One screw and rotate unit counter clockwise about 10 degrees unlocked it from the two snap in mounts. then unplugged the wire harness and it was free. Had to put the short wire harness on new unit, reverse removal steps and it is completed and working fine.

Pried out the old switch with small screwdriver, popped in the new one and tah-dah!! ..the light came on. While I was at it, I cleaned out the freezer :). I cannot begin to imagine what a repairman would have charged for this.

The video of the repair is a helpful guide, but my refrigerator has the compressor very close to the condenser fan motor. With the compressor comes the copper tubing that is all in the way. I had to carefully bend them now and then to allow me to get my hands in position. The how to is easy, but the working with tools in cramped quarters was difficult. I think my Maytag side by side model makes for this job to be difficult, maybe yours may not be so bad. I took a couple of hours to complete. After the first hour, I covered the bare wires, and plugged the frig back in so it could do some cooling. I placed a small in front on the condenser to blow across it. Had a little break, then finished the job.

Removed the two drawers and shelve. Inserted the new crisper rail. Replaced the two drawers and put the shelve back in. Took maybe 10 minutes. Did not need any tools.

I watched the video on PartSelect's web site and did it exactly as described. The video was probably the most helpful aid in the repair.

I removed the glass on top of the Crisper and replaced the Rail and then replaced the glass. Done
