GRT18QNHD0 Frigidaire Refrigerator - Instructions

Removed two screws to get to defrost time pull panel down remove two screws holding time and reinstall

Website was great!

The defrost timer was right in front. 2 minutes and a screwdriver and I had it replaced.

To replace the thermostat, I had to take out the back panel, defrost it and then install the new part. the only problem was that the heatshrink tubing they sent was too large. Otherwise, it worked great.

Removed old gasket and installed new one

just like the video showed...it was excellent!!!

took 4 screws out of the discharge vent on top of the refrigerator section and unpluged the wiring harness and put the section on the counter and unscrewed the timer and put the new one in and reinstalled the assembly and plugged the Jack and put the 4 screws back in, and rotated the timer and put it on defrost removed the back and check the heaters and drain .

We replace the end pieces to hook the holder back on the door.

Ordered the parts from the product discription (photo) as well as chart showing actual size. Got the parts( in two separate shipments) cut the bar to length and snapped them inot place. Bingo!

It snapped in place.

I removed the screws that were in the original part that had a broken plastic endpiece on it. Put the new hanging rail on with the screwdriver and good as new!. I also replace some clips that were worn out and kept coming off when I put too much in the freezer doors. They were snap on so it took less than a minute to replace all 4 that I ordered. Now my refriderator and freezer work like it new and doesn't keep falling apart.

pulled out freezer, went to floor,reached in next to compressor pulled off clip just like on the video.Pulled off old capacitator took off wire leads.Installed new one. Freezer runs great.Loaded it up with beef pork and venison. No problems.

it was great. I ordered the capacitor for my frigidaire frig and it arrived
in 3 days. plugged in the part to the compressor and my frig has been
working ever since. I spent 3 minutes ordering the part and 30 seconds
attaching it to the frig. Easy, very easy. saved myself a 75 dollar repair
visit. thanks

Having looked at the broken area, in some frustration, for several years, I had a good idea how it all went together: the front end slips over a metal lip suspended from the front of the shelf above, and the rear is held in place by a single screw (single slot with hex-dead). The most time was taken clearing the items off the shelf above. Having done that, the shelf was easily lifted up and removed. Flip it over to expose the screw at the back. Remove that screw and discard the old/broken hanging rail. Slip the front end of the new rail (carefully) over the metal lip. At the rear, line up the hole on the hanger with the hole in the mounting bracket and re-insert the one screw. Re-install shelf and slide the drawer back into place on the hangers. Good to go.

I pick up very fast at these kind of small jobs but because of my very busy schedule I decided to call (2 times) technicians about my problem but none of them had any idea. About my repair, I removed the grill at the bottom of the refrigerator, unscrew a small plate (located on the bottom left side) that's holding the defrost timer. I plug on the new part, screw back the plate with the defrost timer and that was it. Don't forget to turn clockwise with your finger the timer until you hear a "click" and then turn it slightly more to the right. There is also a video on U-tube.

Decided to clean the refrigerator at the same time as replacing the broken part. Took shelf out, removed glass, washed all parts, removed broken rail (two screws) and replaced new part. Piece of cake!

I first thought the defroster heater broke - took the back wall of the freezer off and cooling fins were fine. Then took the defroster timer out and opened it up. The contacts were badly burnt so the compressor and fan ran during only part of the cooling cycle. Replacing the timer took less than 5 minutes - turn off the power, remove one screw to take out the control box, cut the ground wire (new timer housing is plastic and does not have a ground connection), remove two screws to unmount the timer, unplug the old timer, plug in the new timer, fasten with two screws, put the control unit in and fasten with one screw, turn power back on.
