JFC2290VEP8 Jenn-Air Refrigerator - Instructions

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.

It was a breeze once I figured out how to remove the old part. Everything snaps together no tools required and I'm sure I saved myself a bundle by doing it myself.

Unplugged appliance. Using a small putty knife I moved the switch out far enough to grab it with pliers. Moved wiring to new switch and pushed into place after testing.

very easy snap in of new parts. Design and strength of plastic parts was very poor by Jenn Air.

My husband and I did this together. Most of the time was taking out all the food in the bottom part of the fridge. Once things are out, take out the deli drawer and the crisper drawers. Take out the glass over the crisper drawers and below. Now you'll see the end cap. We only replaced the left side because the plastic knob that connected the deli cover broke off. So we had to pull out the left side cap. It was hard to pop out. We ended up breaking it as we used a screw driver to get leverage in popping it out. Take off the metal drawer hardware and put on new cap. Pop the new cap in. It went in way easier than taking out the old piece. Now that you are done with that put all the parts and drawers back in place in the fridge. The deli drawer cover will pop back on the knobs. It might take a little pushing on the sides to get it in place but it will evenly pop into place like the side cap.

Pushed it on.

Horizontal door pin broke, attempted glue, no luck. Parts select had video of similar part, but there is no screws on this part (good idea to call partselect if you are not exactly sure on your part/model#.) Remove pantry tray, upper glass and two drawers above. Remove end cap: remove slide, depress one holding point in the middle of part and gently remove up and out. Key is gently as the humidifier control is connected. Reconnect all and click back into place. Requires no tools.

Removed the old pantry drawer end cap, its snaps out. Replaced it with the new pantry drawer end cap, it snaps into place. Had to line up the vent braket that affixes to the rear of the inside of the refrigerator.

Hinge is a tiny but VERY important part of this large End Cap piece. It broke due to a jar falling on the slider drawer cover, causing the drawer cover to not shut properly without pushing it by hand. 1.) Removed slider drawer. 2.) Removed right end cap. 3.) Transferred parts to new piece. 4.) Installed new end cap. 5.) Installed slider drawer. Took about 30 minutes, including cleaning behind the drawer.
