WRS26MF8JS1 Crosley Refrigerator - Instructions

Consult the exploded view of the Ice Container on this site. A likely cause the end plate (17) is worn. This plate connects the rotating corkscrew to the final plastic worm that pushes the ice into the crusher and thence to your waiting glass. The worm alone will not do the trick. To replace this plate, you need to take out all of the screws you can see, including the one that holds the spring for the crusher select bar.. First, the front cover, then the plate, and finally, locking ring from the worm and the black housing for the crusher. Now you can remove the whole worm assembly. Using a cloth or rubber insulator to protect it, unscrew the end screw and slide off the crusher teeth. Store on the table as a unit to facilitate re-assembly. Slide off the old bar and worm, put them back, and re-assemble. Takes a little dexterity to get the crusher select bar back, but not hard. Easy job.

Remove the bottom freezer drawer. Remove back metal evaporator panel. Wire in new defrost terminationT-stat. Reassemble evap panel. Good to go.

We considered tape and glue, but we knew that it would look like crap and wouldn't last. Fortunately the bin had a part number on it, so it was easy to order the correct part and it fit perfectly.

I ordered the parts by studying the diagram and they were perfect. Thanks for making it so easy.

2 steps; 1. I removed the broken door bin 2. I slid the new door bin in place, Am I a genius or what!

I replaced the items myself, there was not much to it. I must comment on the sight. It was very interactive and easy to use!

Support studs have an expansion fitting - center post has to be pushed through to allow expansion joint to collapse for removal. After installation, this post can be pushed in or pulled out to secure the stud and be the proper length to hold the bins.

None of this was obvious - an online tip from another member was invaluable.

First I obtained the manual to the refrigerator. I identified the screws to be removed. I turned off the water then unplugged the water lines. I then replaced the Water Filter Base and reassemble the parts. Within minutes of turning on the water, water and ice making had returned. I was a hero for saving the family $200 in parts and labor.

Replaced the Triple Water Valve

After taking the complete motor, tray, icemaker, etc out and finding no problem, I then finally checked for power at the connector at the top of the icemaker. I concluded that there was no pwoer going to the motor. I then removed the circiut board and found the relay for the auger was not working. Putting the new board in took 10-15 min. and then the auger started to work.

Looked at video on how to remove and reinstall support and followed the instruct ions

Turn off ice maker
Slide wire harness shield off connector
Disconnected harness

REMOVED THE DRAWER, LIFTED OFF THE GLASS, REMOVED THE BROKEN SLIDE, AND PLACED THE NEW SLIDE IN THE PROPER SPACE. REPLCED THE GLASS SHELF TOP AND THE DRAWER. PEICE OF CAKE

Glue the old one with gorilla glue. Made space and put the bin in. Now I have an extra one.

I ordered 3 bins initially and received only one, which was very easy to install. It just snaps in. When I called to indicate that I had received only one of the 3 bins, a claim was submitted and I got a refund for the missing parts. Then I had to reorder the two missing parts.

When I received the reorder, both of the bins were broken. I called to indicate that they were broken. I was told that I would have to submit photos of the broken parts to [email protected], which I did. After I submitted the photos, I received an email asking me for the photos again and the serial number of the refrigerator. This is the first time the serial number was requested. I have no idea why they wanted the serial number at this point instead of when I first ordered the parts.

At this point, I am still waiting to get my claim for the broken parts approved. I assume that the shipping department is pretty worthless, since they screwed up my order to begin with and then the shabby packing that was done for such fragile plastic parts on the reorder.

I'm not happy with the hassle that I have been going through just to get a simple order delivered.
