CFUFH21RC0 Frigidaire Freezer - Instructions

thanks it worked out great we just needed extra self to create more compartments . this was a very easy and perfect fit for the model .

I knew from a problem years ago that the Thermostat was the likely cause so I ordered a new part and replaced it. Only need a phillips head screwdriver to remove the part and add the new one..

I removed the shelves, unscrewed the cover panel of the fan motor and regulator dial, disconnected the fan motor from power, unscrewed 2 screws holding the motor to the mounting bracket and put the new motor in it's place. New motor had no thread in the mounting holes, so I put new tread in so I could use the 2 screws. Another option would have been to drill all the way through the mounting holes and use longer screws or bolts. Of course I turned the power off before I started repairs. Freezer runs like new now. Technicians wanted $400 for the job, while it cost me a mere $55 for the Motor.

Removed the old defrost timer by removing 4 screws on the holding bracket. Disconnected the wire harness. Reconnected the wire harness to the new part. Installed the new part with 2 screws on the top of the molded bracket. I am a 67 year old woman... easy-peasy. (the defost timer is located in the bottom left rear of the freezer.

Bought the defrost timer based on PartSelect recommendations, installed it and no change. Apparently the old one was fine but since the refrigerator was in a flood and this part got submerged in water I kept it rather than returning it. I looked at everything closely and realized all the mechanical functions were working properly. Rarely does a condenser coil fail so I decided to look into recharging the coolant. Bought a 1/4 inch bullet valve, a 12oz. can of R-134a and a cheap resealable can adapter with hose, gauge and R22 to R-134a adapters. After a $30. investment Bingo, after one squirt the refrigerator began to cool and after 4oz. it now works better than new. I understand that PartSelect is in the business of selling only their parts but please consider that there can be other simple problems.

very simple,started by turning off the power to that outlet (in breaker panel) then removed the 3 bottom screws, 2 side screws and 3 top screws (all 8 screws are Phillips head) in order to remove the panel. Disconnected the motor (unplugged it) and removed the 2 screws holding the motor in place to remove the motor. I installed the Fan on the new motor, and remounted it in place , reconnected it and replaced the panel and all 8 screws. (and the side seals push back into place easily after you replace all the panel screws.
Very easy, it took less than 15 minutes to make repairs and freezer was back in operation and back to below freezing temps in less than an hour.

Just slid the new door bin in place

VERY SIMPLE - PUT BIN ON PEGS ON THE FREEZER DOOR

Replaced thermostat and it fixed the problem. Freezer comes on and turns off automatically and regulates internal temperature around 2-5 degrees.
The hardest part was extending the coiled probe tubing and forming it to fit into clamp without kinking it.

would take off working when the temp control was increase one number. Came here after I got to the number 7. Changed both parts the first time and temp control is working fine at 4. thanks for all the help

Temp control thermostat fixed problem many thanks to Part Select for help with this problem.Was able to save majority of food.

Turned freezer off and removed cover in freezer at the bottom, notice fan blades were broken off, removed the 2 screws that were holding the fan motor in place removed fan blade and replaced with new fan blade, problem solved

The old defrost timer started making a screeching noise (probably bearings going out). The replacement part was a cinch to install. When I initially spoke to a PartsSelect person, they said the part number I gave them was not consistent with my old '94 Tappan Freezer. They were able to still find the proper replacement part number. The video that was on-line helpful also.

Removed the inside evaporator coil to do inside solder job, use torch to heat solder joints on the outside drier in order to remove it and install new drier. Soldered Heat exchanger line to drier and 1/4” copper line to compressor. Wrapped with new insulation wrap. Pulled a vacuum on system and then charged with 4.4 ounces of 134a freon. Works like a champ again!

Used Phillips head screw driver to remove panel to expose old thermostat control. Took picture with phone to use and a guide. Replaced old with new and placed panel back o . Working perfectly! 30 minute max to complete.
