CTX14CABNLWW Hotpoint Refrigerator - Instructions

Simple. Rolled the refrigerator out , unplugged the 120 volts AC outlet.(1) Unplugged the wiring from the cabinet to the fan (white (three pin connector)). (2) Removed the two 5/16 inch screws holding the rear motor bracket . (3) Removed the fan blade from the motor shaft by applying slight pressure, pulling if off the old motor shaft. (4) removed the rubber isolator from the frame and from the rear of the old motor. (5) placed the rubber isolators back on the motor and frame. (6) Pushed the new motor back into the frame and re-installed the fan assembly. (7) remounted the fan with the rear support and the two 5/16 inch screws. Reconnected the three wire connector. Just checked the fan blade assembly to make sure they were not hitting the fan shroud. Fan blades should sit just partially inside the shroud to make sure it produces maximum airflow.
(8) Reconnected the 120 volt AC and waited for the compressor to cycle back on... Nice quite fan... Thanks

Removed old one lined up drawers, wonderful, great company to buy from and do business with, thank you

Ordered part came in 3 days. Removed plug and rear cover. Pulled off old fan . Installed new fan by pushing it on to shaft. Plugged unit back in to check operation, installed rear cover. Done. Part fit perfect. Thanks to this site you folks are great !

Separately (from a different site) purchased new compressor fan and motor. I purchased the grommets here because the other site listed the grommets as temporarily out of stock. I did watch one of the videos on PartSelect about the grommet replacement. Repair was pretty simple, biggest challenge was getting to the screw on the far side of the motor. Removed the two screws holding the fan motor into place. Removed motor and blade. Reinstalled with new fan blade, new grommet and new motor.

Unplugged the refrigerator then used the cordless drill to remove the 6 screws on the access panel on the back of the fridge to be able to get to the fan. Was able to pull the fan off by hand and push the new fan on by hand. Plugged the refrigerator by in and watched the fan run for a few minutes then replaced the access panel. Really quick and easy repair.

I disconnected the old defrost heater removing 2 small screws and the electrical connectors, afterward I attached the new part, reconnecting back the electrical connectors and screwing the removed 2 screws.

Easy

I lifted old one out and place new one in

Took out vegetable draws, removed old cover and put in new vegetable pan cover. Then put back drawers.

First I had to order the part. The part arrived quickly, but without mounting hardware or instructions. It was easy enough to determine the placement of the shelf, but had to locate mounting screws from the hardware store, drill two holes, secure the shelf.

Set it, and forget it. That easy.

Removed the drawers.Took out old cover by tilting up,Put New cover back on Tilting again to set it in ,brought it down on its rests and replaced the drawers.

it was slowing cracking for a long time, and repairs with duct tape and crazy glue were a futile attempt to avoid the inevitable; a new part altogether! Well a few moments searching your site for the exact piece were all that was needed. With 48 hours of placing the order I had it in my apartment and just slipped it into place! it was a piece of cake!Thank you so much!

I simply removed the old cover and replaced it with the new one! Fit was perfect. Thanks!
