10655203400 Kenmore Refrigerator - Instructions

Took off refrigerator door from top hinge and lifted off. A little difficulty getting worn out parts off (needed dremel to drill out worn plastic); replaced with new parts, the screw head holding on the part was starting to be worn as well but still worked. If I hadn't got to this repair soon the bottom of the door aluminum would have total worn out as it is, it has a deep groove but not noticeable. The new cams also force the door closed tight instead of slightly ajar at times.

Icecubes came out half-way, and refrooze. I figured out, that the melter does not work (HEATER in the icemaker) Voltage measured 105V no load. Studied the Internet, and folloved an advice: shorted the back wire and the blackwire with white stripes.these go to relay contacts. It seems, that the relay contacts are no good on Infrared receiver boaed. I turn off manually the icemaker, when needed

i had used your web site before and i read several problems that your readers had. i went to the back of the unit, removed the bottom cover and right there the i found the run capacitor and i chaged it. since i had only ordered this part to save money i went back and ordered the Start Device which when i took it off it was completely burned. the replacement part came labeled with 2 different compressor #, so i picked the one that i had and unpluged each wire. the part may differ from the one that it's in the unit but it worked when i pluged everything back on. it also helps to take a picture of everything before removing the wires in case you have to leave it and come back later. i hope to use this refrigerator another 10 years. thank you all for your help.

First i unpluged unit from wall then removed the ice maker front door ,removed side cover with nutdriver 1/4,pressed the in on the the two releas clips on the botom of the unit then pulled the unit out the disconnected the cable.

One screw inside the refrigerator removed the cover exposing the diffuser assembly. I had to also remove the cover inside the freezer compartment in order to free the diffuser assemble bracket that protruded in from the refrigerator compartment directly on the other side. Once the diffuser was freed, the assembly came off in my hand. The new one just snapped back in place. Done.

Being too lazy to pull out the refrigerator out and unplug it, I turned it off at the fuse box. Opened the freezer door and unscrewed the three screws holding the sensor. Pulled the sensor out and unscrewed the board then unpluged it and removed it. Plugged in new board, screwed it in then replaced the three screws. Repeat on the other side. The most difficult part was getting to one of three screws on each side; it almost required a third hand to hold the flap door between the ice maker and the bin, while removing said screw. I must at say that this product is definitely over engineered.

1. Remove the ice box
2. Unscrew the two Phillips screws on the base of the ice box compartment
3. Lift up the coupling and shaft (be careful because there is a spring between shaft and coupling and washer)
4. Remove old coupling
5. Replace with new coupling and remember to put back the spring
6. Insert back shaft with coupling and washer
7. Screw back on the Phillips screws
8. Replace back the icebox

It was the right part at the right time. I had ordered parts through the retailer from Whirlpool but they were not right. I found the part number on the Whirlpool website and ordered it from you. Once it came it was a thirty second fix. Thanks.

removed old bracket and replaced with new one - two screws and it was done - simple

Found several videos online showing this process. It was difficult to separate the main water line input module from the original water valve, but persistence paid off and I was able to separate them using a large flat head screwdriver by twisting in grove on the back side. Putting in the new valve system was really easy once you cut the old screw nut sections off the lines. The output lines are different sizes so you can't mess that part up. Just be careful when dealing with the 3rd line that is the same as one of the output lines in size. I just marked mine with a permanent marker so I didn't get them confused or swapped around. Another problem was the two pieces did not fit together like I expected because of design differences. I was able to mount them one above the other by using one of the screw holes for the cardboard back cover to mount the main water input module. Everything works fine now. No leaks.

Had to disassemble ice maker to install part. . .

remove door pull gasket out put new gasket in replace door

Opened the box, removed the old shelf, attached the new one.
Is that easy or what?

Just like they told me to do.Insert bottom then sides.

I removed the cap from the filter pushed a lever and removed fliter. I replaced the old filter, removed the caps on the new one and slid it into channel after replacing the outer cap. I removed water from the spigot for 4 mins. and it was ready to go. I pushed the reset button to get the green light to come on.
