Took a putty knife and Removed the old switch removed the spade terminals from the old switch and replaced them on the new switch and just pushed the new switch back in place
Repair went well,took about five to ten minutes to disconnect the power from the fridge removed the defective switch installed the new one ,reconnected the power,,,and Let there be light and there was light!
Referencing the info/schematics you have on your website, I unscrewed/unattached top-front panel (carefully), from behind the panel you have to detach the wires (2) from the switch, pushed "in" the switch to remove, put in new switch and attach wires to test BEFORE remounting panel. Tada!! Thank you PartSelect! You saved me at least $80...would have been at least $100 to have a repair person come to the house!
Super easy - emptied door of all food, unscrewed bracket from top of door, lifted door off and set aside. Broken cam removed, new one screwed in, and lubed with some Vaseline. Set door back in new cam, screwed bracket into the top, and good to go. I was kinda worried about shopping from PartSelect since I had never heard about them, but the part was here in less than 2 days. Pretty awesome little company.
Remove two screws from top door hinge. Remove door from unit Remove old broken plastic cam 1 screw Replace new door cam tighten 1 screw Reinstall door and top hinge screws.
Have to say it was a pleasure doing business with PartSelect. Purchased the icebin from Whirlpool and the entire backside of the bin broke off in less than 10 days. I called Whirlpool for warranty and they said it had been more than 30 days since the order was placed and it is only a 30 day warranty. I spoke to a supervisor and pleaded my case that I work out of town and only make it home every 2-3 weeks and it was only installed for 10 days. I further explained that the original unit lasted 10 years so I would think it would be pretty obvious that this was a defective product. She said sorry, only 30 day warranty, but she would offer a 25% discount if I wanted to reorder. I told her what I thought of their policy and offer and told her I would rather pay full price than any further support of their company. The phone agent with PartSelect was friendly, professional and I received my new icebin in just a few days. I don't purchase many parts from the internet but I would bookmark this company for future reference.
Removed the door by taking 3 screws out of the top and lifting straight up, then replaced with the new parts and very easily replaced the door, worked ike a charm, if i didn't know any better it was like factory new
The door made a loud noise on opening and closing.
Emptied the door. Removed the door, top bolts first. Lifted out the door. Installed new cam at the bottom. Set the door back in place. Bolted the top hinge back on. Smooth!
The part came quickly and was the right one. You can't imagine how many outfits lose it here. Well done and thanks.
inserted a knife between the switch and the plastic interior in order to pop the switch out. then took off the 2 wires on the old switch put them on the new switch and reinserted the switch into the plastic interior.
Had to get the clips onto the plastic knob, which once done the clip would go in the hole which held the kick plate on, had a problem getting the clips on, no directions, finally h I held the clips closed and hit them with a hammer and they went right on. I was afraid that I would break the knob where the clip went which had happen and is why I needed a new kick plate. A short description of how to do this would had been very helpful.
