JIM158XYCX1 Jenn-Air Ice Maker - Instructions

Pretty much followed the how to video. Biggest pain was removing the screws to the bracket that houses the motor.

Removed and replaced the condenser motor fan kit. This was a very easy tear down and replacement of a bad component. Removed 4 screws to remove the bracket holding the fan motor kit pulled it out and replaced with the new unit (4 screws supplied) plgged in adapter cord (supplied) and re-installed took about 10 minutes.

I watched the film on installing and taking out. Step by step. easy.

I replaced the thermometer first and it started working again. I was convinced that the reason that it continued to break every 6mos was because no one had ever replaced the fan. The difficult part was getting to it. After trying to get in from the front and from the back I finally figured out that I had to take the bottom off and tilt it on its side. I was then able to get out the pin in the condenser and move it to the side. I could then reach the screws that held in the fan. I then decided to put the fan on the motor and when I was tapping it on with a hammer the back cracked. I attempted to fix it by taking apart the old motor and salvaging the parts but that didn't work. I had to buy another $85 part and take the whole thing apart again. It was easier the second time because I knew which screws and pins I had to remove and how to get to them. I very, very carefully tapped the fan onto the motor and now it is working fine. I will let you know if it is still working at Easter. If it is I will have done a better job than the 7or 8 repairmen who have fixed it in the past

Removed lower plate on back of refridgerator and changed out fan. The video was great and made the repair a snap. Fan is quiet and no more overheating refridgerator.

I called the 800 number and the lady was great to work with and helped me thru all the order process and confirmed the numbers. She also told me she would try to get the order out that day which she did and I had the part two days later. When it arrived I went to the web site and reviewed the video and went to work and all went as the video said. Thanks for the help and if i need another part I will visit your site or call.

Installing the switch was a breeze, the tough part was removing the old switch. I watched a video on the PartSelect website which showed how to remove and reinstall the switch. I attempted to remove the switch the same way that they showed on the video, but the problem was my switch was surrounded with foam insulation which was stuck to the old switch. I attempted to pull out the switch but was not able to extricate the switch. Finally, I called a friend who works with these switches and he cut away the foam insulation and removed the switch. Being the handyman that I am, I was able to reinstall the new switch. Hope this helps anyone with an Amana refrigerator that has the light switch on the side wall instead of in the light console like the video showed. Don't be afraid to cut away the foam on the right and left sides and the bottom. Don't cut away at the top, because that is where the wire connections are located and you might cut those off and then you'll be ordering more parts. Good luck.

Removed to old motor by removing screws and disconnecting power source and replaced with the new motor and plugged back in power source

Using a 1/4" ratchet removed the old motor, a bit difficult due to small space to get your hand and ratchet in position. Before installing the new motor I used one of the screws to tap the the 3 holes in the new motor so it would be easier to start the screws attaching motor to mounting bracket. Attached cable. plugged in the fridge. Great to hear a quit running refrigerator again.

as told per compter

Purchased the new light switch, used a butter knife to pop the old one out, used the pliers to pull the wires off the metal tabs, replaced the new one with no problem. Took about under 1 minute. Lights are now all working.

watched the video how to remove, and did it.

It took less that 30 seconds to pop out the old one and less that 30 seconds to install the new one.

Before I began I unplugged the electrical at the wall outlet. 1. Unscrewed the 4 mounting screws. 2. disconnected electrical at the motor. 3. removed the assembly. 4. mounted the new motor on the assembly as described in the instructions. Installed the assembly and reconnected the electrical. Works great, easy job!
