ART318FFDW01 Amana Refrigerator - Instructions

YouTube helped ,diagnosed problem ,found defective part removed and replaced with new part.
Is a little job on your knees

First, made sure new fan worked then Placed back in bracket with bushings-only goes in one way, pushed fan back on. screwed bracket to back of freezer and ran the wires to their original place, plugged in the two plugs, put the back piece up attaching ground and pulling ice maker plug thru, screwed back on. Plugged in ice maker, mounted ice maker on freezer wall. Plugged it in. Exact reversal of how it was removed. Not a lot parts to get confused.

Repair went well,took about five to ten minutes to disconnect the power from the fridge removed the defective switch installed the new one ,reconnected the power,,,and Let there be light and there was light!

I took out the old socket by moving a clip. Reattached the electrical wires, clicked in the socket and that was it.

Followed instructions on your website

I took a chance and ordered a switch that is next to the top of the door. looked for how to remove it easily done in ten minutes works fine last long time.

inserted a knife between the switch and the plastic interior in order to pop the switch out.
then took off the 2 wires on the old switch put them on the new switch and reinserted the switch into the plastic interior.

I simply removed the old switch by gently pulling down on the old switch with a screwdriver. When it was about half way out I just gently pulled down on the old switch and it popped out... I removed the two connectors attached to the old switch by pulling on the connectors with a pliers...I tried using my fingers but wasn't able to pull the connectors off so I used pliers. It worked perfectly.. When pulling off the old connectors, make sure you attach the new switch to the same tabs on the new switch... It was very easy to do and took under 5 mins.....The light switch works perfect....P.S. You should unplug the frig while making the connection just in case....Safety first....!!!

This job was extremely easy, snap on.

I bought this refrigerator from a big box store w/o seeing the actual model, but was told the one I was buying was exactly the same only w/o handles sticking out. Not so. This model has no full-size freezer shelf even tho there are slots on both sides of the freezer for a full-size shelf. Whirlpool was no help, telling me I'd undo the warranty if I tried to put in a shelf that wasn't for that freezer, but I investigated & found the frig I originally saw, got its full-size freezer shelf model number, & voila! I'm now a happy camper with a better organized freezer. Freezer shelf fit perfectly, came intact due to being well-packed for shipment. Easy to install-just slid it into the shelf track slots.

Noticed the evaporator fan not spinning but would spin with a finger jump start. After looking up the part on the PartSelect liner parts diagram I found the installation video that really helped. After installing the fan it tested out fantastic. The fan was blowing air 10 times more than the old one. Refrigerator works great on the original econo setting.

My son said it was easy to put in the motor I didn’t need the fan my fan was in good shape yet thank you so much for everything

Followed the video instructions.

I removed the switch housing (4 screws), replacing the switch in the housing was a snap. It took 5 minutes, cost $8 and light works like new!

Why didn't I order this part and do the repair earlier? Very simple.

The light rocker switch wasnt working. I found the part on the web site. It was so easy. I used a screw driver to pop out the old one and pop the new one in. It took 5 min. Thanks!!!
