Disconnect the broken one and install the new one

Removed the evaporator panel's cover. The ice covers up the defrost heater. Use heat gun to melt the ice on the defrost heater then removed the 2 screws, pull it out and check its resistance (it was open). After replaced the deforst heater, the refrig. works OK.

Take off the panel in the freezer side to expose the heater, defrost all the ice. Remove the screws that hold the heater in place and remove the wires from each end. Plug in the new unit and replace screws. Replace screws in the freezer panel, to complete the instulation. It will take the most time to defrost the ice, and clean up the water. To help defroct I used my wifes hair dryer. (She did not know it)

Easy

removed door, removed old cracked riser aand replaced with new. You have a easy to follow parts site and very good prices. I will use you for all my future repairs.

I removed the top hinge, lifted the door off the bottom hinge, rmoved and replaced the bottom hinge assembly, and reinstalled the door. I then aligned the door and reinstalled the upper hinge. The fridge works just like new!

1 Unplugged Refrigerator and removed all the freezer shelves.
2. Removed the light bulb in the back of the freezer.
3. Removed rear panel on back wall of freezer. I had to do some defrosting on the back panel due to frost build-up.
4. Defrosted cooling coils using a hair dryer. This took a considerable amount of time due to frost build-up. Also, there was a considerable amount of water run off due to melting. I plugged the drain, and used towels and a bucket to soak up the water.
5. Removed the old element located at the bottom of the cooling coils and removed the wires from each end.. At that time, I also notice when the directions referred to "right" and "left", the point of reference was from looking out of the unit (not facing the unit).
6. Reroute the pink wire on the left side to the right side of the freezer coil. The defrost heater element I removed was a single heating element and the element I purchased was a double heating element. I then attached the blue and pink wires to the right side of the heating unit. (The pink wire was sufficiently long to reach the element. I did not need to splice an extension into it). The yellow "jump" wire was on the left side of the heating unit.
7. Attached the new heater to the freezer coil framing with the two screws.
8. Reinstalled the back freezer panel.
9. Reinstalled the freezer shelves.
10. I plugged in the unit to restart the refrigerator.

The defrosting took a considerage amount of time. Otherwise would have taken about 30-45 minutes.

Emptied the refrigerator door so it was easier to take off. Used a screwdriver to remove the screw on the top hinge. Lifted door off bottom hinge. Laid the door down so I could take the bottom hinge off. Removed worn out parts and placed the new one on. Slipped door back on hinge,made sure it would close properly and was lined up with freeze door. Put top hinge back in place. Done!! Now door finally shuts on its own again!!! EASY!!!

After watching your instruction video and not wanting to shut down refrigerator and remove foods from door, I elected to lift the door and place blocking under it.The actual hinge replacement took approximately 10 mins. I would also like to say that I am extremely satisfied with PartSelects handling of my order and your promptness resending my order because of my goof-up with my own address. I am grateful and will recommend you to anyone who needs parts for any appliance. Thanks again. Chuck Gjovig

I received the part in only 2 days! Install took 5 min ,great service,speedy delivery,thank you,you have a custumer for life,Frank

Laid a 3 1/2" block of wood about a foot long under door, pried up door level with other door and used a couple of wedges to hold door up. Used 1/4" sockets and ratchet to remove and reinstall hinge.

Found my popsicles not so frozen, checked the settings - good, looked at the back wall of the freezer, it was covered in frost. Knew at this point that it was not defrosting, removed all the food and trays, removed the back wall - 4-screws to see the coil - completely covered in frost,placed towels at the bottom and poured warm water over the coils to defrost and check the defroster lamp. Checked ohms, bad. Partselect time! Filled out the easy order form, found a recommended better solution - a double element. Received the order, right part! Followed the easy directions and installed, works better than when it was new! Had to raise the temperature, as everything is freezing in the refrigerator section! The double element is really doing a better job of defrosting the freezer! Highly recommend this over the single element.
