FPE16TCA0 Frigidaire Refrigerator - Instructions

the parts fit good but tight. I needed to tap them in place and everything worked good. Your shipping is very fast and you had the parts!!!!!

order part and relaced bar

This past February 6th, my wife and baby son were in a car accident. Friends were generous and brought food for my family during the height of our crisis time. Our refrigerator was very full and the bar across the door shelf got pushed in and the end caps broke. We ordered the end caps (with the excellent help of Susan M. in customer service) and recieved the parts the next day. I fitted the parts on to the end of the bar and firmly snapped them into place in the refrigerator door. Done! It was that simple. The hardest part was getting both the left and right part, and Susan M. wen WAY out of her way to help us in our time of need. It may sound like a small thing, but it was one more problem during a time of significant family stress and hardship and it was one of the very easiest to fix and it was all done very very quickly. Thank you PartSelect and thank you Susan M. You were our angel in a time of need.

Snapped new caps in place . Took about 30 seconds!

This poor frig.(purchased in 1984) has gone thru five military moves. Somewhere along the line the plastic tabs to the door shelves broke, but I retained the metal bars. I hoped to find the required plastic ends to fix them and you had exactly what I needed. The repair was so fast and easy. The amount of pressure was a bit more than I originally thought was needed but they all went in perfectly.

Turned off water. Took cardboard backing off lower back of unit. Unscrewed the old adaptor from the water distributor. Unscrewed the water hose connection from the adaptor. Put plumbers tape on new adaptor. Re-connected water hose to new adaptor and re-attached the adaptor to the water distributor. Turned water on, checked for leaks, and tightened adaptor to water distributor until leak stopped (approximately a quarter turn) after hand tightening. Easy, hardest part was pulling out the unit and putting it back in place!

Simply snapped ends into shelf and snapped into the fridge door.

Unplug the refrigerator unit from wall. I removed freezer rack, plastic light cover, the ice rack shelf on the right side, then removed the plastic back cover panel, (4) retaining screws, gently tilting the panel toward me, unplug the wiring harness by depressing the clips on the side of the plug, removed panel from unit, set aside. If the unit was froze up, so I defrosted the cooling coils carefully with a common hair dryer until it was thawed. Be careful not to touch or bend the coils , since they are very fragile and SHARP! I located the old thermostat unit attached to a straight length of coolant line. The new unit looked like the old one, so it was easy to locate. I cut the two wires of the old unit close to the round base to make sure I would have enough wire to reconnect. Since my new unit did not indicate a polarity(Neg or Pos), I just wired each wire I cut to one of the new unit. I used the shrink tubing provided and heated the shrink till it was fully melted. I double ck'd to see if the wires were basically waterproof and a good connect. Also, before I replaced the rear panel, I made sure that both wires I had spliced had a drip loop to it so water would not drip down into the newly spliced union. Also made sure the wires will not interfere with the colling fan on the back of the rear panel. Reverse the procedure in reassembling. Plug in unit, and wait and listen for the unit coming back on..I kept a regular thermometer in the upper and lower compartments. Allow 24 hrs. for the unit to return to normal operation. It may defrost several times till the whole operation is back in sync.

change the evaporator fan motor kit working perfect
