FPHS2699PF4A Frigidaire Refrigerator - Instructions

I ordered the part from PartSelect using the part number located on the valve itself. The part was delivered in less than 48 hours from the time I entered it. Replacing the valve was easy and went according to the online video instructions provided by PartSelect. The only thing extra was that I had to replace the brass compression fitting on the copper tubing connected to the inlet of the valve. The old one would not seal properly. The compression fitting was about $1.50 at Home Depot. This is my third purchase from PartSelect and I continue to be impressed by them.

Not knowing the history of the refrigerator/freezer and observing that the icemaker would cycle (ice ejector fingers would rotate when the off/on arm was toggled), I concluded that the water valve must have some hard water scale in it which was causing it to stick. I replaced the water valve and the exact same behavior continued. By elimination, I concluded that the microswitch in the icemaker must be sticking. I removed the icemaker, used a hair blow-dryer to heat/dry out the microswitches and then a little shot of WD-40 on the mechanical arms, switches, and cams fixed it.

1. I took out one screw on the ice maker and loosened the other two screws and unplugged and removed the ice maker.
2. Next I took out 2 screws from the bottom of the auger drive box and unplugged the wiring harness and removed the box. The wiring harness was a little tricky. The lock on the plug pushes in to unlock even though it looks like it pulls out,.
3.next you must remove 2 screws from the left side bracket that holds the auger box and remove the bracket.
4.Now take out 8 screws that hold the back panel in place and remove the back panel.
5. now your looking at the evaporator fan blade and motor. The simple way to replace the fan blade is to unplug the motor and remove it from the freezer. It just sits in with nothing holding it. The fan requires a little pressure but should pull right off. Install new fan blade and put everything back in the same order it was removed.

It was real easy took the lines off one by one put them on the new unit one by one same with the three plugs than tighten new unit back on fridge.

I got the part, hitched it up and it started working right away it fit in easily, and the directions were easy to follow thank you

Replaced the bin took less than 5 minutes. Very impressed with the service we got. The part came in 1 day!!

Followed video on your site. It was very helpful.
Thank you.

Remove the old ice maker by loosening the screws and disconnect wire harness , next fit new ice maker in place connect wire harness and place new ice maker in place put screws in and tighten.

Unplugged refrigerator from the wall plug. Removed ice tray cover, removed ice container, lossen the two screws on the ice marker holding it to the back of the fridge, dropped the ice marker down and unplugged the electrical connection. Then removed the ice maker.
Took the new ice marker, plugged the electrical connection back into the back of the new ice marker, screwed the two screws back in where the ice marker goes and tighen the screws to told the ice marker in place.
Replaced the ice container, replaced the ice cover.
Plugged the fridge electrical cord back in to the wall socket.
Done.
It started making ice again in about 10 minutes.

Installed a new Defrost Thermostat.

Easy to remove the auger Motor and Solenoid, however, it didn't fix the problem. $300.00 into it I now have to purchase a circuit board for $382.00. Not a happy camper.

Had to disassemble the entire ice maker bucket. Simple and straightforward, didn't need any pictures or reference materials. Just time consuming.

You order your door bin by phone to PartSelect and wait. Wait for about 3 1/2 weeks to get a cracked and unusable piece of plastic. Then reorder and wait. Wait for about 2 weeks to get another cracked door bin. Now you decide to use this part or send this one back also. Don't worry, you get charged for shipping only once. I decided to use the second bin. It was not cracked from top to bottom like the first one. I'll see how long it last.

Removed and replace solenoid manifold valve in rear of appliance using inadequate You Tube video. Removed and replaced augur motor after dismantling various housings using a seriously mistaken You Tube video. The latter video informed us that the yoke that screwed on the motor's shaft was a reversed Left Hand thread. It wasn't at all, and we struggled to figure that out. The people that make these videos leave out steps that they thunk are obvious, but aren't at all.
