FFHS2311LB8 Frigidaire Refrigerator - Instructions

Removed old broken pan cover and replaced with new pan cover..

The repair itself total time was quick and easy. Since the original fan blade blew apart, it was only a matter of putting the new one on in it's place. This can be done by feeding the blade between the cowling and Condenser coil and applying pressure to get it on the shaft.

If your fan is still on the shaft, simply push it off and extract it the same way. Then place the new one on the shaft.

In my case, since the part would take a couple days to get, and I had food both in the fridge and the freezer, I removed and unplugged the Condenser Fan Motor and the cowling frame and temporarily spliced a small fan I had into the line for the condenser motor. This kept the fridge working long enough to get the replacement part.

Side note. Direction of airflow is towards the Compressor, and draws air across the Condenser coils.

Hope this helps someone. :)

I removed the two side mount screws with a screwdriver and disconnected the electrical plug to the ice maker to remove it. I reversed the process to install the new one.

It was the thermostat that was the problem, but I chose to replace the entire ice maker for only $25 more.

Loosened the two mounting screws (no need to remove them), lift off the icemaker and unplug it. Reverse the order and done.

It was very easy to insert the new shelf door into the refrigerator slots.

Put on new shelf in seconds. What a wonderful way to be able to purchase the perfect part easily through the internet. I ordered the part on Sunday and received it on Tuesday. THANK YOU Parts Select!!! K.F.

Old valve comes out with 2 screws, water lines removed and reinstalled on new valve just as they came off the old valve. Entire job took less than 10 minutes. Very easy replacement.

Repair was easy. Unplug refrigerator, turn off water to ice maker, remove back panel, disconnect water inlet valve, disconnect water supplies and electrical connections. Cut ends off tubing to modify to new part connections, connect tubing, connect electrical supplies, reinstall back panel, plug refrigerator in, turn water supply back on. We made sure that there was no ice build up in the supply tube into the ice maker and made sure that everything worked correctly before putting it all back together. It was an easy repair.

Easy

The disassembly was not as straightforward as it looked because it required more disassemble than just the damper assembly cover. The entire fridge control panel, the water filter, the air filter and damper cover all needed to be removed. Even after removing them, the control panel cover and the damper control cover needed to be separated. Thankfully the manuals showed that those two pieces do separate with a double grooved pressure fitting. After carefully taking those two pieces apart I was finally able to get to the damper control cables and disconnect them. The quickest part of the repair was the actual swap of the damper control assembly itself. Reassembly was really fussy and took a long time to get everything lined up just so. Once that repair was completed the fridge works again perfectly!! I was afraid I had gone through all that and would still need to replace the fridge, but it’s been a couple of weeks and it’s still great! The other nagging issue was the water dispenser lever had been abused by my kids for 15 years and was giving up. The replacement was also fussy but absolutely easy. The lever still isn’t perfect so I’m guessing I may need the actual solenoid part at some point but it does work better than before replacing it.
Overall, I would do it again and the parts were exact matches and were shipped quickly.

Unplug refrigerator first. Remove 4 screws on front and lift off cover. Unplug unit small plug with around 6 wire on it on the top. Unscrew inside scres that hold the lever in place. Put the new one in slots and put in screws to hold in slot. Put cover back on. Make sure ice dispenser is still working seemed to disengage the unit during the repairs.

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.

Removed the water lines from the old base. Installed new base and reconnected water lines. Installed new filter.Turned on the water line behind the refrigerator. Opened Refrigerator door to watch for leaks. No Leakes. The new filter base was

I followed the instructions, my ONLY issue was about the Part 46 the Ice Dispenser Actuator Rod. The front of the arm has flared out grooves and it didn't warn me about making sure the rod is properly aligned thru part 23 Front Plate or else when the ice maker actuates the rod it will not move properly if the grooves are not aligned on each side of the Front panel. I hope you can understand what I mean, if not just look at how the Part 46 rests in Part 23
