Mine was alittle different than the online instructions. 1. I removed the motor. 2. I took the fan off the old motor and cut the wires about 3" back from old motor. 3. Mounted the new fan on bracket and put the fan on the new motor. 4.connected wires that were cut and used wire nuts to connect. 5. Mounted bracket and motor/fan to unit and it works like its brand new. Thank you PartSelect!

Condensor Fan going bad
I knew the repair wasn't difficult. It was a matter of finding the replacement part. Luckily, I found the part via the internet on your site. Lucky for me, there was an installation video!! These videos are worth 1000 bucks!! Never have encountered a site with installation videos before. It gave me complete insight as to how the job was sequenced. I'm a very visual person, so videos are the perfect helper for me. With fewer and fewer affordable local service companies around to fix problems like mine, your site gave me the complete confidence to easily switch out the condensor fan. I completed the repair for about $63.00. Your site ROCKS! Keep up the repair videos because they are awesome and extremely helpful. I felt like your pricing was competitive for this item. Thanks again!!

pull unit away from the wall, and unplug it. remove the grill, and cardboard guard on the lower back of the unit. remove Three screws for the motor bracket. Remove the bracket legs from the old motor and assemble them to the new motor. take the fan blade off the old motor, place it on the new. Cut the wires at the old motor, strip the insulation back, use supplied wire nuts to connect the new motor. Reverse order to reassemble. Plug in unit to test function.

Frost buildup in the freezer resulting in warm freezer and refrigerator
I unplugged the refrigerator and defrosted the freezer. I removed the plastic grate on the front bottom of the refrigerator and removed the plate covering the defrost timer using a nut driver. I used pliers to unplug the defrost timer. Using the Instant Repairman troubleshooting instructions from partselect.com, I used a multi-tester to determine that the current defrost timer was bad. I ordered a new one from partselect.com and and received it very quickly. I plugged in the new defrost timer and screwed it back in place. I replaced the grate, plugged the refrigerator back in. It's been a week and everything is working perfectly! Easy peasy.

Needed a new bulb under the microwave.
After unplugging the microwave and removing the screw, I removed the old bulb and put in the new one!! I made sure it was in securely and the difference in the light was awesome! I use this light when I bake bread and let it rise inside the microwave, but DO NOT turn it on. The heat from this light helps the bread to rise properly!!

Compressor and condenser fan would operate but the evaporator fan in freezer and fridge would not come on. Freezer would ice up some and the water dispensor would not operate. Read through electrical schematics and narrowed down the problem along with reading some blogs on your sight. I never used m
Since I work out of town, I was able to track my part enroute to my house. They were right down to the time and where it was placed at my house. When my wife got home, she was able to install the part herself, she reset the timer and fired the fridge up and has been running ever since. The part costed around $29.00 including shipping. Your sight was very useful and would highly recommend your company. Thanks, Bob

Refrigerator not shutting off, liquids freezing in fridge
It wasn't quite as easy to get to the bolts as the video showed. The lay out of the part wasn't exactly like the video either. However, I managed to put the new part in. Unfortunately, it didn't solve the problem. At first the fridge cycled on and off but after 12 hrs it started to freeze liquids again. Since the appliance was 17 years old we opted to just get a new one.

Not cooling properly/ door divider getting hot.
The video of the repair is a helpful guide, but my refrigerator has the compressor very close to the condenser fan motor. With the compressor comes the copper tubing that is all in the way. I had to carefully bend them now and then to allow me to get my hands in position. The how to is easy, but the working with tools in cramped quarters was difficult. I think my Maytag side by side model makes for this job to be difficult, maybe yours may not be so bad. I took a couple of hours to complete. After the first hour, I covered the bare wires, and plugged the frig back in so it could do some cooling. I placed a small in front on the condenser to blow across it. Had a little break, then finished the job.

not cooling
removed condenser fan -located behind refrigerator next to compressor, Not much clearance to work, there are 3 screws to remove from condensing motor,sounds easy but clearance is lacking to remove them ,(takes alot of PATIENCE). Then you have to remove the fan blades to be able to get clearance to remove motor!! I wouldn't reccommend trying this repair unless you are a pro.
