25362112012 Kenmore Refrigerator - Instructions

Installation was fairly straight forward. The major complaint is that the problem returned 2 weeks later. I don’t know if I care to re-invest in another switch.
Now what?

I used the youtube you provided. It was pretty straight forward, but I had to make a trip to the hardware store for a bit (hex wrench) to remove the hex bolt head style screws. I was only expecting to need phillips or flathead. I managed to remove one with a set of pliers, and the brought that example to the store for size reference when buying the bit to fit my black and decker drill. The rest was easy.

Unplugged refrigerator. Emptied freezer and removed ice maker and cover, need to unplug fan. Defrosted coils with hot water. Cut wires to thermostat as close to it ad possible to leave extra wire in case of an error. Stripped wire in new thermostat and put in shrink plastic then the wire crimp connector joining both light blue wires making sure wires were in before crimping them. Repeated with other dark blue wire. After used the heat gun to shrink the protective white tubing. The only thing i found not satisfying was tge tubing. It was too wide and too small. When i shrunk it did not cover the whole connector and was loose. I had to use a glue gun to cover both ends of each wire connector. Hope this helps other users.

I cut wires from bad thermostat and removed it . Stripped wires and crimped connectors on new thermostat and wires from old thermostat. Used heat gun to seal sleeves over connectors. Very helpful video from this site Thanks, you will be my go to parts supplier from now on!!!!!!!!!!!!

I removed the old gasket and cleaned the area. Then I started at the bottom and pressed the new gasket into the door. You must use firm pressure and go all around. It does get tricky hear the end as it seems like there is excess, but it will fit. Just keep using firm pressure.

Just slid it down into place.

The repair was much more simple to install than I would have imagined. I watched the video provided on your website. What a simple solution to a nagging problem. My fridge looks great again.

SO SIMPLE I JUST FOLLOWED THE VIDEO THE PARTS SELECT PROVIDED ON THERE WEB SITE AND WALA DONE IN 5minutes Wow THAT EAZY NO TOOLS NESSECCARY JUST A SCREWDRIVER

Just lay the new glass shelf into the groves. The shelf was too big and would not fit properly down into the groves.

I just put the new one in with no problem

I purchased the door bins on partselect.com and received them in time mentioned. The reason why I had to order them will "melt" your funny bone. Yes, it says right on the bottom of the bin to hand wash them. Being a bachelor, I put them in the dishwasher on the bottom rack. When it came time to take them out, WOWOWOWOWOWOW, they were melted beyond usage. SO, I had to order new ones. Yea, Really funny, I know.

The evaporator coil is behind the freezer. Remove the rack that makes the shelf and remove two 1/4” hex head screws I the back of the freezer to access the coil.
I used a hair dryer to melt the ice off the coil.
The thermostat clips on the refrigeration pipe to the coil. Remove the old thermostat and cut the wires at least a few inches from the thermostat. Clip the new thermostat on the pipe and strip about a 1/4” of the wire ends. The electrical connectors (provided with the new part) must be crimped to connect the wires.

Opened the box and slipped the new shelf over the existing brackets.Took approximately 1 minute. The shipping was very fast. Very happy with purchase.

Placed the new glass pan cover. No issues. The part was in original condition and fit perfectly. Thank you!

new drawer was received within 2 days and was extremely simple to install.
