KATR1816MS2 Kelvinator Refrigerator - Instructions

it was very simple, my husband did it. had to take the top shelf out and screw in the support rail and that was it. couldn't have been any easier. this was the easiest process from start to finish that we ever had. looked up on line, found your website, ordered the part and it arrived in a couple of days. So easy and your company was most efficient in having the part and in processing. Couldn't have been mored pleased.

Perfect fit.

Snapped in the door rack. For the drawer support rail, just needed a screwdriver to attach the rail.

Twisted replacement bulb into place easily. Let there be light!

Followed video instructions which were to unplug refrigerator, on lower back use screwdriver, loosen 4 screws, take off plastic cover, pull out fan, replace with new fan, replace cover and 4 holding screws, plug in refrigerator. I am female, 77 years old and if I can do it, anyone can.

With the help of your parts breakdown, illustration and videos it was real easy to replace motor.
Must take care with plastic cover
Thank you

removed the top shelve. Unscrewed the broken support rail and replaced it with the new one.Put the shelve back and I was done

Replaced thermostat and defrost timer and still freezer to warm.
After research with U-tube video of (Fixin it with Pappy) discovered that my fridge has one thermostat in fridge section and in cold months (live in ohio)the garage is cold therefore themostat in fridge does"nt need to tell the compressor to kick on. Pappy is a retired engineer and in very easy to follow instructions will show you how to fix this problem. Strongly suggest to search for his video on Utube. I did as he instructed and my fridge freezer works great in cold weather now. Its apparent to me I wasted my money on the parts. I didn't` need to replace. Just happy my Beer fridge is working all seasons now.

I worked for GM as a Frigidaire Tech, before starting my own business. I have retired now.
I took the three screws off the back of the bracket holding the motor. Disconected wire harness and pulled out the motor. Reverse to install. servantoftheking@hughes.net

There is nothing easier than this. You just take out the broken bar and put in the new one.
As easy as ABC....

i just pulled out the old frame and plced down the new fit perfect no tools required... .i will definetaly order from this company again love the "speedyness"!!!

I replaced the bulb using my hands to twist the bulb in the socket located at the top of the refrigerator.

From discussions with friends, I determined the problem might be easy to fix. The fridge made a lot of noise, but the compressor DID come on, and inside the freezer was cold, but the main fridge was warming.

After unplugging the fridge, I removed the fan assembly in the freezer (there were about 4 nuts and a couple of plugs to uncouple.

I could see right away the fan blades has broken off, but the motor looked good. The new new fan pushed easily onto the shift and fit perfectly in the housing.

I reinstalled the fan assembly, plugged in the fridge, and right away heard the new fan come on - very quietly. What was a roar became a whisper and the fridge was down to 38 degrees with a few hours.

The repair was a simple replacement. The problem was that after waiting three weeks for the new drawer to arrive I had to call the company and ask what the delay was?? They said the first order was lost in the mail?? Second order arrived within a week. But we didn't enjoy having to wait this long.

Pulled out the old one and popped in the new one
