All Installation Instructions for Crosley Refrigerator WRS23MW3AWK

Hinge bearing at the bottom of the refrigerator-side door died of old age--broke into pieces.

I followed the instructions provided in the Part Select video and replaced the bearing. The most time consuming part of the job was emptying (and then cleaning) the items stored in the bins inside the door shelves. Removing the broken bearing was a little more difficult because mine was old and broken and I didn't have an empty table to lay the door on like the video studio did--the floor worked in place of the table.

Hinge Bearing

"Popping" noise when opening the refrigerator door.

I removed the food on the door and placed it in the refrigerator. I placed a plastic sheet over the opening of the refrigerator to keep the cold air in. Then I removed the bracket for the upper hinge, remover the door and placed it onto a table. Then I removed the plastic bearing from the bottom of door. I then replaced it with the new bearing. Then I removed the lower bearing and its bracket from the refrigerator. At this point I had to modify the new lower bracket by removing the alignment tab with a dremel because there wasn’t any hole in the housing for it. Then I attached the new bracket and bearing. Replaced the door and upper hinge and the job was complete. It took only about a half an hour to finish.

Our refrigerator ice maker was broken, crisper draw was broken, and shelf support was broken.

We decided to get a new fridge, after the " sticker shock " of new refrigerators we decided to repair the one we have. Two screws and one plug and the ice maker was replaced, took out the broken crisper shelf, put in the new one and that was done, instructions were great. I actually had to watch a " how to " video, ( provided by your web site ) to change the shelf support, very easy. thanks, Gary Hoyle

Clinking sound and you can feel it in the handle of the door.

The repair was easy. After looking at the diagram and locating the part need i just ordered it. But I wish I had taken the door off before ordering as I really need a second part. So resulting in extra shipping cost. Parts that were needed were 240328201 and 240457702. Tks Jim

the drive blade for ice maker was rusted

first copy the explored view of all the parts ' ice maker tray ' then just take it apart slowly you need to get the blades back in the correct order and position thats what the exploded view is for in case you forget then you replace the blade and reassemble , it take a good hour .
