61004752 Kenmore Refrigerator - Instructions

replacing the electric water valves was not to bad took about 30 minutes but still had low water pressure traced it to the filter housing had good pressure going in but low coming out so I removed the housing and found a rubber washer was restricting the water flow so I removed the washer ,put it back together and it worked fine

Followed the video exactly. Replaced both valves in less than 1 hour. No more leakage. Very simple!

I followed the instructions that came with the kit.

followed repair insructions. used all parts sent. slight issue getting spring on correctly but once we did we were done!

The only part I needed was the Valve assembly. I checked for frost and found none. I took out the Ice Maker and found it was in poor condition but working. I did put in a new one but with the same problem. I finally read the comments from your costumers and found one place that told about a leaky water valve that was letting water drip into the ice maker so slowly it froze and blocked the valve. So I put in a new valve and thawed the pipe and allis well. What made this job so easy was the costumers comments and the best was the one day delivery of the parts. Thank you for all your help.

ordered this part first thinking it was the water line issue. we fixed it and it was not that hard but it did not solve the problem. We ended up ordering the icemaker part and installed it and it works fine now. I should have ordered the inside part first and then the valve but it is new now.

went on line and ordered new ice maker for this model refrigerator. Received the new part. New icemaker provided video for replacement of ice maker.Used the video showing the removal and replacement of the ice maker to begin the removal process. (must remove one mounting screw, then raise the icemaker up then out to unlatch the fixture.) This took over one hour, then had to remove wiring arness. Instrucions indicated to "squeez" the locking clip holding the connector, it is impossible to see the connector so it was a "feel" process. It turned out that squeesing the connector from the sides, did not work, finally squeezing the locking clip (top to bottom) finally released the connector. Then the installation (per video) reversed the removal procedure and that turned out to be about a two hour task because to align the ice maker when you cannot see the alignment / holding brackets was a very difficullt task. Then when it was finally installed, the one mounting screw, would not align with the previous mounting hole, because the tab on the new one was longer, requiring drilling a new hole to hold the icemaker in place. The hole had to be made using the same (self-tapping) screw, since the space available when the icemaker is installed is very limited. After the mounting hole was partally made, driving the screw the rest of the way had to be done with a ratchet, other then that, everything was just great.

The home service repair through our utility company checked the refridgerator and then looked for parts. Their conclusion is the part was no longer available and we should "just reach into the icemaker when we want ice until we replace the refridgerator.) The refridgerator is a top of the line model and replacement cost is well over $2,000 so that wasn't a good option. So I checked PartSelect and found the part which I received in 3 days, installed it in a few minutes and we're back in operation!

We put all the new parts in that came with this kit including the Solenoid. It was super easy. I have a home warranty which covered the refrigerator ice maker, however, it would have cost me $75 just to bring out a repairman and then it would have taken up my time to be around when he wanted to come out. Buying this part and doing the job ourself cost me less money AND time.

I replaced the door kit, solenoid and return spring. The old door was worn out and was no longer attached to the return spring. The repair was very simple and the instruction kit sent with the replacement parts was extremely informative and helpful. This repair took less then five minutes.

Ordered solenoid, watched video, replaced solenoid, works great.

I followed the video exactly

went to you tube and typed in model no and brand name and the video explained in simple terms how to replace the selector pad

Unplugged refrigerator 1st to avoid shocks. Took off the front/outside panel of freezer door at ice/water dispenser (6 screws) and disconnected the single electronics plug-in .Pulled off old rubber covered actuator and replaced with new one. Easy. Would recommend cleaning contacts prior to replacing cover. Works like a charm now! Thx. DB

Very simple. Viewed the video that was linked to the web-page and followed the instructions. Longest part of the process was removing and re-attaching the cover on the back of the refrigerator. The video can do more to describe the repair than my words.
