KRFF577KPS06 KitchenAid Refrigerator - Instructions

Had a hard time getting the refridgerator part of the filter to LET GO. The grooves weren't lined up with the areas meant to pinch. A knife on each side got it to release.
Thanks.
Have a good one.

I carefully matched the model number to replacement part cross-reference and ordered the Part.
You-tube instructions were accurate except for the plug wire that prevented removal of the auger motor. It took significant maneuvering to drop the old motor. The new motor fit in better but the male plug configuration did not match the female plug from the refrigerator.

A lot of wasted effort and time as well as expense! What good is matching replacement parts when the replacement is not correct?

I watched some of the you tube videos , the repair went well
just followed the directions the repair took less than 30 mins

Just stood in front of the refrigerator and disconnected the water filter and replaced it with the new one I purchased from by hand

Understood the problem by removing the old dispenser first. That made me realize I also needed the shaft. Went online and matched up all the #’s and the repair went smoothly.

I ordered a gasket and follow the instructions, such as warm the gasket, to get it in the door using my fingers, but the door did not close titght enough. The problem could be something else. The initial problem is in there

Lower the filter cover on the refrigerator, twist the old filter to remove it, install the new filter by pushing and twisting it, and close the filter door.
Using a pitcher, run water through the new filter until the excess carbon leavings are out then the water is clear and is drinkable

Just open the filter and put it in the slot

Replaced motor

I thought this was going to be much more difficult than it was. Take the bottom access door off (using a small socket - same size for all screws). Disconnect the plug to the motor. Unscrew the 4 screws holding the motor. Take the motor out. Unscrew the shaft screws on top (only 2) so you can manipulate it if need be up and down or spin it. Insert new motor and make sure shaft is seated correctly into the motor head. Screw motor back in. Screw shaft back in. Plug up motor. Screw bottom door back on. You are done. EASY!! Took me about 10-15 minutes to do. Much easier than most things.

Checked a video on YouTube and found questions and answers to this concern.. All lead to the compressor capacitor. Entered part # on your Website. Capacitor come right up and also suggested a Start Device. I ordered both parts as I was not sure if these parts would fix my problem.
R/R rear panel, found Capacitor and replaced it... Compressor came on and refrigerator operated correctly after defrosting Evaporator coils..

Following a you tube video, I followed the instructions. However, the old switch did not come out as easy as the video showed. They showed inserting the putty knife at the bottom of the switch to pop out the switch. However, in my refrigerator, the flex tab was at the top. After I inserted the putty knife at the top of the switch it came out easily. I removed the broken switch and inserted the new switch with no further issues.

I followed the instructions in the appliance reference manual, and successfully replaced the water filter in 2 minutes, and reset the water quality indicator.

by watching a you tube video: I removed top refrigerator panels, disconnected water and electrical components, located and removed old ice maker assembly and then reversed the process.

Remove torn old gasket.
Starting with bottom slid the gasket retainer under the door retainer lip on bottom. Repeated for top. Slid the retainer under the open side door retainer lip. Then pushed the gasket as much as possible to hing side. The slid the gasket retainer under the door retainer lip.
