25344123802 Kenmore Refrigerator - Instructions

I replaced the filter. However the ice cubes are very small and are being caught in the tines. Hopefully, once the filter gets more water through it, the ice cubes will be bigger. This is what happened the last time I replaced the filter.

Part come in without delay - perfect fit - easy to install - works great

Pulled the old filter out and pushed the new filter in.

I unscrewed the screws that held the old fan on, disconnected the wiring harness and removed the old fan. I pulled the blades off the motor and put it on the new fan. One thing of note, the screw holes on the new fan weren't threaded. I assume this is by design, so I used the screws to thread the holes before installing it in the freezer. Once I did this, the rest of the installation was easy, just screw it back in and connect the wiring harness.

Turned off the refrigerator, removed the bottom drawer from refrigerator, then removed the glider bars for the drawer on the left side where the filter chamber is. Removed the filter and then removed the plastic peace guarding the filter chamber. Once that was all removed we removed the screws holding the filter base in place. Now that everything was exposed we removed the inlet and outlet lines from the filter base by pushing in the nobs inside the base and pulling the lines out with some slight elbow grease. After that we just proceeded in reverse. We plugged the filter in after the base was secure to make sure that the fix worked. The repair worked like a charm, was relatively simple and now our fridge is all better with water and ice without a large repair bill :o)

I followed previous directions, and would recommend them! Briefly, I removed the plastic covers for the water filter, water tubes, temperature control switches to allow removal using a screwdriver and a nutdriver(I think)to remove the hexagonal screws. I also removed the water filter before beginning. I pressed the blue thingies in the back towards the base to remove the water supply lines. It was a bit tricky, and took the bulk of the repair time, but they came lose once enough pressure was applied. I took out the old filter base, put in the new one, attached the water lines, and put back all the covers. Everything comes apart very easily, and went back together very easily. A simple repair that had us back in ice and filtered water within an hour!

Replaced fan. I ordered the fan and received it the following.(-:

When i found out there was no thread in brace where bolts were supposed to screw in, I panicked. I thought I would have to send part back or go to a machine shop to make a thread. I called a friend for help and he told me the bolts would make the thread if I just screwed them in. Sure enough, the bolts made the thread and then I just proceeded to instal motor and put refrigerator back together. It was simple.

Just took old knob out put new knob in real easy thank you jd

I was able to take away the trim covering the parts with a nutdriver. The base was disconnected using a phillips head screwdriver. The only real issue was how to disconnect the plastic water lines from the old base and connect them to the new one. I finally realized I just had to cut the lines where they entered the filter base because they would not pull out. I then finally understood that to install them into the new base I just had to push them in securely. The lines were long enough to do this but probably would not be long enough to install another filter base. In that event I do not know what all would have to be done. The leak had been going on for years (it only leaked when water was running to the ice machine or water dispenser). It is great having it repaired and we hope to get quite a few more years out of this old fridge.

Push the button on the right side of the ice maker filter compartment which releases the old filter. Just pull old filter out and slide the new filter all the way in. Be sure and mark on the new filter the date that will be time to change the filter again. I ordered the filter on one day and received the filter in the mail the next day and I had not paid extra for overnight shipping.

My daughter ordered and replaced the part very easily.

Remove the cover panel inside the freezer, remove and replace the fan motor (pull fan blades off old motor and push on the new one) and replace the cover.

I ordered the filter from Parts Select on 9/2/13 and it was delivered to my house on 9/5/13. You can't beat that for quick service. So then I open door to refrigrator and push the button on the lower right of the filter compartment, which is at eye level. Remove old filter. Take the caps off the terminals of the new filter and insert into compartment where the old filter was. Write the date of the filter change on the label that comes with the filter and affix to the new filter face. The filter should last six months.

Just like the instructions said. It took less than 30 seconds. Very happy I could do this myself. Thank you PartSelect.
