All Installation Instructions for Tappan Freezer TFU12M4AW1

Frige and freezer not cooling

I should have ordered start kit instead of start capacitor. The start cap astir did not fix problem so I ordered kit. Compasator comes as part of kit. Followed enclosed instructions. Cut existing wires and reconnected new wiring. Simple as that. It's a plug in item. Now worried it may be working to good. Freezer down to 10 deg. Watching to see if compressor is running to long. Seems ok lol. Wife hates me now. She wanted new frige.

The age of the freezer caused the handle to come off of the door anc it cracked.

The handle for the freezer arrived the next day. Most of the time repairs at home are alway a challenge. But the handle was placed where it belonged in about 5 minutes.It was the easiest repair we ever had and now we don't have problemes opening the freezer. Thanks so much.

The tabs on the shelf end broke off.

Removed the broken shelf ends and installed the new ones. Then installed the assembly on the freezer door. Trick was to put the long end of the tab in first followed by the short end. The up end was reversed on the opposite shelf end.
