79578519800 Kenmore Freezer - Instructions

Uncoupled the old connector, replaced with new connector and attached supply line. Repair easy with right part, prior to ordering the right part I had tried a compression fitting and it still leaked. U-tube and others demonstrating repair assured me I was on the right path.

I called LG and followed the instructions given over the phone. The instructions couldn't have been simpler. Disconnect the appliance for several hours and then connect again. I disconnected the appliance overnight, cleaned out the freezer, and reconnected it. Problem solved. Did not need to call a repairman and did not use the clips.

Replaces door switches - removed screw from door hinge cover, lifted cover and removed switch. Plugged in new switch and reversed process. Removed screws from light bracket. Attached new frame to slots in roof and used screws to attach. Clipped on light cover.

My husband took out the ice maker. We ordered the part. He looked on YouTube for instructions. Including looking up instructions, I think it took him way less than an hour.

Very easy just took old out and put in the new ones. Took less then 2 min.

It's a snap in part. 10 seconds to install

Simple replacement part.

replaced melted light covers, replaced switches, and found another problem with power circuit board relay, on order now!!

the lights melted the lamp case and cover. I determined it was the switch ,but there was 2 of them . I replaced both . I used a screw driver to pry the covers off the switches which are on the top of the unit .Then I press the tabs on the switch and pulled it out. Slip the wire connect off. slip the wire connect on new switch press it in till the tabs snap in ,put covers back on. the lamp base and cover had two screws holding them, pull the screws slip the old melted base and cover. snap the new base and cover in and put the screws in done!

With alot of elbow grease and a pair of pliars we managed to get the old connector off wo cuttig the tubing as the tubing was getting to short from being cut once to many times & there was no more play in the length.Original connector was a different color and shapped slightly different than the new one so was a bit concerned that I had ordered the wrong part but it went one very easily & did not leak. We even managed to remove it again just to see if it was possible wo cutting again. it came off with no trouble.I would say the replacement part was a better fit than the original simply because we could remove it easily wo having to cut the tube!

The vegetable bins at the bottom of the refigerator weren't sliding smoothly, as the two outlying rollers had snapped off the large plastic frame that houses said bins. Unclipped/unsnapped all the covers and glass shelving and remaining rollers attached to the frame and reinstalled them on the new frame. The only tough part was removing/installing a couple of large transpaent pieces of plastic that sit directly under the glass shelf. I'm not sure what their function is, except perhaps to look nice. But I had to pull the frame out with surprising force to snap the pieces in and out. Had to use a screwdriver for leverage and was afraid I was going to crack the frame. There must be a trick to it, because I'm a strong guy and it was still hard for me to do; there must be an easier way. Nevertheless I got them in ok, and bins pull out easily again. I was impressed when comparing the old frame to the new one, btw, as the new one's roller-attachment point is far sturdier than the old one. Obviously this was a weak point that has been well-addressed.

Changed door switch. Repair worked for a few days but re-occured. Possibly the other switch is bad .

Simply used a flat head screwdriver to get the first few inches of the gasket out of its track and after that just pulled it by hand. New gasket slipped over the door, lined up the corner and pressed into in the track. Checked to see that it was snug all over and we were done. 5 minutes at the very most. Never would have noticed this. Took all the bins out of the freezer to give it a good cleaning and noticed the torn piece hanging. Our refrigerator runs much less often. Expect to see a difference in our electric bill!

Tape off the light button so door alarm does not go off. Take off the clear light shield and remove the light bulbs. Be careful, bulbs may still be HOT!! With Phillips head screw driver unscrew the light plate assy. Drop it down in a comfortable position. Disconnect the connector, unscrew the thermal sensor and remove light assy. Install new light assy into light plate assy. There is no thermal senor in the new assy. Snap light plate assy back into place and install the two screws previously taken out. Install bulbs and clear cover. Remove tape from light door switches and you are done. Lights should go on and off when door buttons are pushed in and out.

Be sure to order two if both are broken. The picture shows two but only comes as a single item. Super easy to replace.
