WRS555SIHZ08 Whirlpool Refrigerator - Instructions

The repair was super easy. It took all of 10 seconds. From ordering the part to repair, I would use part select 100%! Excellent company with excellent parts. Thank you!

I removed the filter from the box I took the old filter out and inserted the new air filter put the cover down and that was it.

took the old one out and put the new one in. Done

We removed the old switch, unplugged it, plugged the new one in and it was easy to do. But when we tried to put the switch back in we had a very hard time doing it. Eventually got it in, but if it had not been for the difficulty we had getting the new switch to snap in to place, it would have taken under 5 minutes.

This is a very basic model refrigerator and the only model we could purchase when our machine failed suddenly. The new unit works just fine, but we really missed the snack storage of the higher level units. I ordered the parts for the next higher model Whirlpool side by side refrigerator and installed them without incident. They new snack drawer is a little difficult to snap into place, but it fits perfectly and we certainly appreciated the extra snack drawer on our basic model.

Replace filter

System not cooling. removed back cover and notice fan not rotating. Looked up unit and found diagram. Ordered motor which was received in less than 5 business days.
Replacement was super easy. Just unscrewed from frame, pulled off fan, put fan on new motor and remounted back in frame. Took 10 minutes tops.

removed old and replaced new. Did not need the holder.

Took off the rear cardboard cover, unscrewed the old valve, checked to see if there was enough tubing to fit if I cut the tubing. removed the 2 electric connectors, Cut the tubing 3, installed the 2 electric plugs, inserted the 3 tubes, mounted the new valve, replaced the cardboard cover. I checked for leaks, and very soon heard the valve filling the icemaker tray, and soon, Ice cubes again.

Followed the extremely helpful video on the web site. It was easy to remove, replace, and install the new part, following their video. Saved time and money, and I didn’t lose anymore of my hair!

The instructions in the package were not helpful. They wanted me to cut the wiring harness and described where to cut based on the wire colors. My wires were not the same color! I removed the light mechanism using a combination of a screwdriver, putty knife, and plain old muscle with my fingers! The wiring harness unplugged easily and the new one inserted. It was easy to push the whole assembly back into the door. I spent more time looking for something to cut the wiring harness with (and never did find it) than the whole job actually took without needing to cut anything!

****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

Using a screwdriver

Just took a minute to put new shelf in place.... easy peasy!

Popped out broken switch with blunt flat edged instrument. Disconnected switch from unit . Plugged new piece in and reinserted into side panel of refrigerator. Very easy.
