unplug power! Remove the screws from lower panel on back of refrigerator. Lift wire mount out of back panel. Capacitor is mounted directly to the relay and overload switch located on the left side of the compressor. Remove the spring clip holding the capacitor in place and pull the old capacitor out.

Remove front coil cover below freezer door. vacuum dust off coils and replace cover. Plug refrigerator in and enjoy cold beverages. Relay and overload kit were not required for this repair.

The video was exactly how to do the job EXCEPT the freezer door is a pull out drawer and the basket slide on the right side of the freezer compartment MUST be removed before the back panel can be opened.

We removed the drawer to make it easier to reach. All went according to the helpful video except..we had it all complete when we installed the drawer it wouldn't close! Our fault entirely, should have marked top/bottom on the inside of drawer, we had it upside down:(. Had to redo entire procedure. Good lesson for next time.All in all, very pleased with the prompt delivery and very helpful video. Thanks.

I removed the bottom compartment completely from the refrigerator , making the job much easier. I removed all the screws and then set the gasket starting with the corners making sure the inner groove of the gasket sat inside the bottom lip . I used a putty knife to raise up the tray that has this lip and slightly working the gasket down into position with my finger Do Not use the putty knife to set the gasket. When the gasket was set on one side I added a few screws to keep the gasket from popping out of place. When finished I used a hair dryer on one side to help conform the gasket to make contact with the fridge. The unit is running fine with no problems. The install job took me 1hr and 15Min

I followed the directions I saw on here. Absolutely watch the video on this site. It helped me understand better what I had ahead of me and allowed me to clear my schedule for the repair. I did not need to heat up the gasket. The weather has been pretty warm and there weren't any real kinks. The biggest challenge I had was getting the screws out and back in again on the freezer panel. The corner screws are tough to reach once the gasket is in place, but I used my fingers a lot and it all worked out. I did have to use a hairdryer to melt a ton of ice that had built up on the back of the panel the gasket installs on. This took by far the longest amount of time. By the way, I'm a mom and while I'm pretty handy, it should give encouragement to all the women out there who are thinking of tackling this job.

Took the old one off at the top and put the new one on and fastened it down and then unlosened the rest of the screws and put the rest of the gasket on both doors and fastened it down. Went very well but we thought that the gaskets should have lasted a lot longer than that and that the company should have stood behind those gaskets because we had a refrigator that was about 30 years old and they never went bad. And we take very good care of our things. All of our things that we have still look like the day that we bought them. Am a little disapoited that they didn't stand behind them.

Simply stick a putty knife between the switch and refrig wall. Pop out old swith, remove both wires by pulling off switch by terminals. Throw switch out. Put wires on new switch and push into slot and all done. Nothing to it! Took me 5 minutes if th

Removed bottom air vent and removed/ replaced defrost timer by removing 4 bolts with nutdriver, disconnecting the plug connections and then reversing process. Very simple. Unfortunately, this did not solve the problem. Next step was replacing the thermostat. Again a simple procedure, but required removing freezer shelves and the rear panel. You have to exchange one lead from old thermostat to new, but very simple. Again, unfortunately, it did not solve my problem. Temp still down around 24 degrees F but needs to get to about 0 degrees. In both cases, I noticed no frosting up on the evaporator coils, just a little on the tubing that the thermostat attaches to. I'm thying to decide next step. Any help will be appreciated.
