FRSS26L3AF5 Frigidaire Refrigerator - Instructions

The repair went easily after watching the video, took me less than an hour to complete the repair.

I was able to replace the housing by only removing the front cover, the e-ring and washer and the 3 hex-head screws. I was able to work the old housing around to get the actuator arm off and then get it properly inserted into the new housing. Attach the new housing, IMPORTANT: make sure you get the fixed-blades and spacer assembly in the slot of the housing that holds them in place, replace the e-ring and washer, check that the actuator arm operates the door properly and replace the front cover. The videos can be helpful but these shortcuts will save some time.

The part i recieved, from parts select was a larger in circumfrence (<1/4) than the original. However i was not aware of this until after i treid to repair it.

I removed the broken fan from the condenser. This was very sipmle.

When i pluged the refridgerator back in to the outlet the fan tried to start up but soon began to make aloud noise, due to there not being enough clerance.

Removed shelves above the problem area. Tilted new shelf up to slide prongs into openings on one side, pushed in far enough to allow prongs on the other side to fit into their openings. Evened the shelf out then added some thick tape to both sides of the shelf to keep it from falling out.

I BOUGHT 2 MORE SHELVES AND INSTALLED THEM.
THANK YOU

I looked at the internet before I purchased a new seal and saw how to repair it. It was a matter of pulling out the old seal and just popping in the new. The internet said to use a hair dryer to melt the rubber to adhere to the fridge in places where it wasn't. It was quick!

This was the last step of serial repairs to the ice crusher portion of the ice maker. I have practically replaced the entire assembly. All the blades were installed incorrectly (at factory? Afterwards?) and had bent. That caused problems for other parts. I hadn't noticed that the housing was weakened and my prior repair I did something dumb and the door on housing wasn't closing properly, so it snapped. I bought a new housing and installed it. My #1 tip is WATCH THE VIDEO! There are some things that have to be put together just so. You need things to line up and be under slight tension from springs. Last time I had it under too much tension. The door got in the way of the blades and broke. So this time I was more careful to do it correctly. Everything is working perfectly now. This design is clever, and I feel like I can diagnose and fix it again in future. "Steve's" instructional videos are a huge help. He shows exactly what to do.

Removed ice maker bin...removed screws and housing and reinstalled all...very easily completed.

With shelf tilted put one side in and then straighten the shelf to put other side in and then snap in trim. Real easy and less than 5 minutes

The repair instructions were suspiciously easy sounding- but in actuality- right on! I am not a DIY-er , but I did it! The old gasket came off fairly easily and the new one went right on! No tools needed! There wasn’t an immediate ‘suction/seal’ when I closed the door, but Grok said that was normal, it may take a little time… Sure enough- in the morning it was tight! That’s been 2 weeks and so far- so good!

The repair was quick and easy. Just install the ordered bracket ( hinge ) on the top refrigerator door and cover. I had all the screws and cover but somehow the original bracket was missing...hummm

Followed instructions in video that was suggested when I placed the order.

i watched the video very simple repair

I followed the YTube video. The ice maker doesnot crush ice. The auger moves the ice to the dispenser. Is there a position for metal blades when assembling auger?
