****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

Receive part in two days. Super fast.
Repair was very easy. Whirlpool designs so even the "average joe" can fix it. Took abour 20 minutes to repair. Even with no directions.

I ordered the part and it arrived in about 5 days. I removed the two lower crisper drawers and the glass shelf seperating these from the Wide-N-Fresh compartment, to give me room to work. I removed the two screws holding the right side endcap in place. The temperature adjustment mechanism was a bit tricky to remove from the broken endcap and replacing it on the new endcap. Once that was figured out everything fell into place and the lid was snapped into place and worked properly

The fridge would occasionally run warm, requiring me to turn it off and defrost the evap coils in the freezer. I found an online video that demonstrated the entire process of replacing the control board. The fridge model in the video was different than mine, so it took some time to figure out how to remove the panel. Once that was done, the rest was easy. The only tool required was a flat-head screwdriver that was used to push in the tabs holding the panel in place. The circuit board took more effort to split in two than I had realized, and I had to be careful not to bend any of the components on its surface. The whole process took less than 30 minutes, and the fridge is working properly now..

I followed the video provided by Part Select. I also let the refrigerator stay unplugged overnight with all the doors open. This p-trap kit has fixed the leaks out of the front of the refrigerator. There is no ice build-up in the freezer. Perfect!

Just emptied the glass shelf. Lifted it and installed new part. Easy Easy

This is a simple repair, the gasket is pressed into a groove in the door and only needs to be eased out (pulled) by hand and the new gasket pressed back into place by hand. Starting the installation in one upper corner to make alignment easy. The side of the gasket with the table face center. For this model remember the doors are not symmetrical and the gaskets are a different size for each door. The gaskets come folded which puts a kink in the gasket. I set them out in the warm sun to straighten out before installing.

the only thing easier than installing the part was finding it on this website.
10 minutes max start to finish.

Removed the 2 fruit & veggie drawers & deli drawer and glass top. Nut driver to remove the side end cap. Remove and replace the rails onto the replacement part and reattach. Simple.

It had been broken for months and I just kept putting off calling a serviceman. Boy am I glad I found your site. I don't even want to think about what this may have cost. When the kids break something else I'll be ready !!

pull out old gasket and pushed in new one

Slid the new glass in place

Was told capacitor was problem 90% of the time.Capacior was not the problem.Bad start relay.

Not so good that was not the problem. Fan is not seized and all the lights work and display is not on but lights up as well. No start once plugged back in after 15 minutes of being unplugged. Nothing same no change.
