IKT184300 Inglis Refrigerator - Instructions

Toddler left the fridge door open for an undocumented amount of time. The freezer was operating perfectly but the refrigerator was not cooling. After some research I ordered the part needed and went to work. Process was simple, just keep track of the fans mounting bracket. I installed it upside down and the holes didn't align with the back wall freezer cover.

Step 1: Unplug the fridge
Step 2: Gloves and safety goggles
Step 3: Tools - Socket Set and screw drivers. Hammer and chisel for the ice build up.
Step 4: Remove the back wall of the freezer carefully
Step 5: Remove fan and motor housing, unplug Hot, Neutral and ground wire from motor
Step 6: Drink a beverage
Step 7: Remove fan and motor from housing. You will have to reuse the rubber gaskets/washers so do not dispose.
Step 8: Install new motor and connect the hot, neutral and ground. Do not overtighten the screws connecting the motor housing to the mounting bracket.
Step 9: Before mounting the bracket, plug in the fridge to confirm the fan is operating.
Step 10: Put everything back and have another beverage.

Ordered a new crisper drawer and simply changed them out

I watched the video that was included with my on line order, it was helpful, although different model shown . I would say it was not difficult to install, the enclosed instructions were a bit confusing.

I followed the directions and it worked.

use kitchen knife to pry out. replaced switch assemble and pressed back into place. Could not have done this with out help from previous customers. Thanks

I placed the glass into the frame. I attempted to slide the frame into the refrigerator over the two crisper drawers. It wouldn't go.

My son came to my rescue. "Mother, the drawers slide into the frame". He took the drawers out, put the frame in the refrigerator, placed the glass cover into the frame, then slide the drawers back into the rungs made for them in the frame. Easy peasy! ;

Ordering was made smooth with a good program for finding parts.

Thank you.

I slid out the broken drawer and slide in the new one. The replacement drawer fite great.

Once I got the new trays. I checked to see if there was any damage from transport. The trays were packed so nicely
I proceeded to clean the new trays. I then removed the broken trays, and clean the shelf, and bottom of the refrigerator. Then slid the new trays in to place. Make sure they were in the guide grooves. That was all there was to it , easy pecy

****Make are you order Capacitor & Starter relay too (we ordered separtely so had to pay shipping twice)**** Super easy just open access panel on back near compressor and remove retention clip with fingers, remove & replace both capacitor & starter, put clip and access panel back on, plug in and allow 8 hours to cool! Works like new again! Hope it goes another 10 years

My refrigerator is about 26 yrs old and the part I received must have been for newer models, but I was able to insert the part into a little rubber part attached to the bottom the refrigerator,

Using a screwdriver

I hand screwed the fill tube into the water tube and stuck it into the freezer hole. I screwed the fill tube to the back of the refrigerator.

Thanks so much! You saved me a bundle!!

I first replaced the switch and had no results, I then ordered the Light Socket Kit, and because I had the experience of removing the panel to replace the switch, it took a few minutes to remove the two screws behind the panel, removing the temperature control knobs and then releasing the face plate which is secured by tabs at the bottom. The kit came with extra connectors in case they were needed, but they were not in my case and so I pulled off the wires, pushed the old socket out and the new one in. Attaching the wires to the correct pins, I screwed in the light bulb to be sure that the fix was correct and determining that, I replaced the screws that held the panel in place. Voila, I'm a happy camper who found some outdated jars in the back corners of the newly lighted shelves.
