HTM17BBSBRSA Hotpoint Refrigerator - Instructions

I had lost the bottom hinge during a move and so I rigged the hinge using an old tv antenna and the door never really quite worked right and it was VERY annoying. I stumbled upon this site and was surprised how inexpensive the part I needed was. I was very impressed with the speed of shipping and the install took maybe 5 minutes. The fridge works as good as new. Thanks a ton!

4 screws in the freezer and the back panel came off then 2 more screws to take the motor off. I unpluged the old motor pluged in the new motor put the back panel back on and I was done.

I FOLLOWED YOUR VIDEO............WAS EASY. THANKS

Removed old replaced with new part. Easy Peasy

I used pliers to pull lightly on the head of the switch, while I inserted a small flat head screw driver into the base of switch and gently worked around the edges to free it from the panel.

Followed the instructions on the repair video and it made very easy. Also saved us a lot of money. Thanks for your help.

Despite attempts to quiet the 2 year old fan, I went ahead and replaced it. Part Select was prompt with a new one at my door less than 24 hours. It was just the fan motor, so took a couple extra steps to place it in the metal housing, but no problems and though the frig still makes noises, it's not coming from the fan as before.

Open freezer, remove rack....this got a little complicated because I had to remove the door, that required the offset screwdriver because I had a clearance issues preventing the door from opening all the way. Remove the panel covering the fan, unplug the fan, remove it from bracket, install new fan, plug in, replace panel, replace rack, replace door...bam all done!

NEVER DID. WAS SENT THE WRONG GASKET PART.

TOOK TWO DIFFERENT APPLIANCE PEOPLE TO TELL ME IT WAS THE WRONG GASKET. VERY FRUSTRATING. THEY SAID SHOULD HAVE BEEN OBVIOUS TO COMPANY SINCE I SUPPLIED THE MODEL AND SERIAL NUMBER.

BECAUSE I COULD NOT PRINT A RETURN ( I HAVE NO WORKING PRINTER.) CUSTOMER SERVICE SAID WOULD TAKE TWO WEEKS TO SEND ME RETURN SLIP. NEVER RECEIVED IT WITHIN 30 DAY WINDOW.

LOST MY MONEY. $95+$75= $170 GASKET, SHIPPING PLUS APPLIANCE REPAIR CHARGE. STUCK WITH WRONG GASKET.

DON'T USE THESE PEOPLE...EVER.

Took back out of freezer compartment, pulled plug and removed old motor, inserted new parts. It was
easy and the parts arrived the day after I ordered
online, even though I chose the cheapest shipping
option. Nothing in my freezer had a chance to thaw
out.

Shelf cracked when less than year old. and has gotten progressively worse thru the years.
Replaced in seconds , no tools required .
I should have done this years ago

two screws and a connector were removed to replace the timer.
Timer was located on the top front of fridge

Parts Select made this an effortless process. From finding the part, ordering, to the online diagrams.

I'll be back...

First I removed the two screws, the fan and unpluged the electrical connection. Then, plugged in the new part and then screw it back together.

After reading the trouble shooting section of the owners manual, I determined, without much difficulty, that the temp control was defective. I checked some local outlets and found the prices running from $36.00 and up. The same part from this site was around $20.00. Guess where I bought mine! It arrived in a timely fashion, and I installed it with no problem, in about 10 - 15 minutes. This was a very easy job, just remove and replace three wires snap the unit into place, and screw the cover on. Tip: I always use you tube or another source to get some instruction, just in case I'm not as smart as I think I am!
