KBFS25EWMS6 KitchenAid Refrigerator - Instructions

Replaced the rail and slide baskets. Also readjusted the basket. This was extremely easy and saved me close to $500

I broke the glass in the frig and found partselect and ordered the new glass and had it in 2 days. Very fast shipping.

Remove back cover
Remove drip thing from top to tray in the back
Remove fan motor assembly. This is squirrely. Top bends towards you, bottom pushes in to the unit. Not fun.
CAREFULLY remove copper tube that rests on drip tray
Remove tray - there are clips in the front that get released by screwdriver
Clean up
Replace new tray
Replace copper tube
Play with fan motor assembly till it fits. It doesn't look like it's gonna work until it does. See youtube videos on this.
Replace drip thing from top to tray - I forgot this one the first time.
Replace cover.

This is a simple, but squirrely, repair. Right on the border of easy (because so few tools and steps) and A Bit Difficult because of the patience required.

Simply cut the water tube on both sides of connector and push in the new one.

repair was extremely easy.
Whether it was magnets weakened or seal getting stiff with age not allowing it to seal well, these gaskets improved it. Still not as strong a magnetic pull as it could be though. I will also say that the seals didn't pull tight at first. It seems the seals needed to flatten a bit before the magnets did their job.

Loosen the top 2 screws, remove the bottom screw, unplug the wire harness, lift up the ice maker and remove. To install the new one simply reverse the removal procedure.
Note: You may want to wipe the inside of the new one to remove the protective grease or discard the first 2 cycles of ice.

Watched video. Unplugged refrigerator and popped out switch. In plugged connector and pushed switch in place. Plugged in refrigerator and the light worked

I removed and disassembled the broken frame. I cut a six inch piece of coat hanger and folded in half and crimped together. Then I took pliers and made a hook that I hooked into the metal strip in the back of the refrigerator that holds the upper shelves. After replacing the frame, center rail and glass I bent the wire up under the back of the frame to provide a support. The back of the frame is weak and has no center support.

It was easier than I had anticipated. Just had to make sure that I was very careful in removing the old part so I did not break any of the good plastic that I needed in order to install the plastic temperature control to the new part.

Cut old fill tube into pieces, removed and replaced with new tube. Extremely easy.

Talking with the service tech and youtube video it was a snap... Saved a service repair and a 25% parts mark up..

Don't try and remove the front/handle from the broken pan, you will break it and its double the price of the pan, just use the small hammer to break the pan into smaller pieces and remove handle from them then the handle will just snap onto the new pan. Piece of cake!

Popped out with butter knife and unplugged 3 prong connector and reversed with anew switch.

But, unfortunately it got broken again exactly same way as before.
So, I ordered same switch again for 2nd time.

Maytag should recall that Rocker Switch and build with better materials.

ordered part -- great delivery-- 3 days--- removed damaged bracket and replaced with new --- very easy to order correct part per web pg thanks

Basically, you are doing the same thing that you do when you clean your refrigerator. You are taking the shelves apart to get to the rail. The hardest part of the repair is cleaning everything and returning it back to like new condition. Real easy repair. the deli door can be a bit tricky. Just put one end in first and you can put some slight pressure to pop the other end in.. The refrigerator is 6 years old so plastic parts will begin to break over time. Good Luck!
