61004754 Kenmore Refrigerator - Instructions

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

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.

Got online typed in Maytag repairs. Watched the repair video. At that point I removed the door assembly (5 screws total) saw the broken door. Ordered the part from Partselect. Part was delivered in 3 days and installation was a very easy process.Thanks for the help.

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.

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

We followed the directions in the video on the Parts Select website.My husband thought it was so easy and he isn't handy. I agree.

Watched the video and followed the instructions ... time to repair was slightly longer than expected due to the fact that my fridge had wood panels requiring removal. Still, the video was terrific since I am a visual type person.Part Select service was amazing ... ordered one day and the part arrived at my door the very next day. Had the same type of service on a previous repair to replace the ice crushing part of the ice maker. What a company!!! Thanks so much.

I had to buy the ice dispenser solenoid AND door kit just to get the door kit. The little flapper door was all that needed repair. I followed the video and this was so easy.. anyone could do this repair. PartSelect made this small job easy. Many thanks. HBoykin

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

After receiving the parts to repair the ice door, I replaced the solenoid and new chute door without problem. Then a problem I had been experiencing for well over a year, re-emerged. No Ice! I realized the icemaker was old, over 12 years and that the Teflon within the wells as well as the contacts for the timer were well worn. The ease of finding parts and the instructions provided by PartSelect, (written, video and users), I would attempt the replacement of the Ice Maker. When I examined the Freezer, I also identified that the Ice Maker shelf and enclosure (where the auger that drives the ice) was broken and barely hanging in place. I quickly identified the additional parts and ordered them. The total repair took about 60 minutes. and was treated to the sound of ice dropping into the bin by early evening. I am very pleased with the service, the quality of the products and the helpful hints from fellow users. I have added PartSelect to my IE favorites and it will be my first stop when I need repairs for any of my appliances.

The original ice door was deteriorated because of age (12 yrs). This caused humid outside air to enter the ice chute and resulted in a buildup of ice in and around the chute. Ice coming out of the reservoir was impeded and got stuck constantly in the chute. I ordered a new ice door kit and it installed easily. Then I noticed the ice door actuator pad was worn so I ordered that. things are working better now. One thing I learned, If you are replacing parts in a component of a 12 year old refrigerator, replace everything in that component at the same time. Otherwise you will order three different times and pay the shipping fee three times. You learn by experience. PartsSelect was very prompt in sending the parts that I needed. The schematics on the website made it very easy to order what I needed. I just should have ordered everything at once. Next time I will know better. Thanks for what you do.

I watched the instruction video and followed the instructions. Removed the old valves and installed the new one with the same water supply and electric wires

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
