59672383413 Kenmore Refrigerator - Instructions

Very simple, easy, and quick! Anybody can do it!!

pulled the top shelf and poped open the door and replaced the filter

Took the old one out & replaced it with the new one

(1) Unplug the refrigerator
(2) Remove 4 nut driven sheet metal screw to remove access plate in the back.
(3) Remove a clear hard plastic cover. Several electronic boards are held in place with plastic tabs.
(4) The main electronic board is easily recognizable.
(5) Unplug all wire plugs from main board. Don't work about what plug goes where when reinstalling. Each plug is different from the others. It's fool proof.
(6) I wore vinyl gloves when I handled and installed the new board. I did not want any static charge to jump to the board.
(7) Re-install all electrical plugs. Note use minimum force to remove and install these plugs as some are small and fragile.
(8) Before re-installing the hard clear plastic cover make sure all electrical plugs are properly installed.
(9) Follow thru to reverse removal procedure for metal plate.
(10). Plug in the refrigerator.
(11) I purchased a delay receptable to prevent both electrical surges and reduction in electrical voltage.

Remove some shelving and have a towel handy. Opened water filter door to expose two 1/4” screws. Removed 2 screws. Placed my hands firmly on upper panel and gently pulled/tugged panel forward and slightly down. Disconnected roof lighting clip. Removed panel from frig. Disconnected both ends from solenoid fill valves by pressing in the colored locking piece to release tubing while pulling tube out. Cut zip ties and removed old leaking reservoir. I also removed the straight reservoir seeing as the part I replace was redesigned and the other one was not needed. Put new zip ties in place. Slid the new part into position and pressed the ends into the solenoid valves. You do not need to press in colored locking pieces, they will self lock. Secured with zip ties. Grabbed a container and filled it up with water through the door to fill and purge and check for leaks. Reconnect light clip, reinstalled top liner and snapped into place. Put screws in. Closed filter door. Took about 15 minutes. I did watch a you tube video prior to attempting this repair myself.

Referencing the info/schematics you have on your website, I unscrewed/unattached top-front panel (carefully), from behind the panel you have to detach the wires (2) from the switch, pushed "in" the switch to remove, put in new switch and attach wires to test BEFORE remounting panel. Tada!! Thank you PartSelect! You saved me at least $80...would have been at least $100 to have a repair person come to the house!

Repair went well,took about five to ten minutes to disconnect the power from the fridge removed the defective switch installed the new one ,reconnected the power,,,and Let there be light and there was light!

inserted a knife between the switch and the plastic interior in order to pop the switch out.
then took off the 2 wires on the old switch put them on the new switch and reinserted the switch into the plastic interior.

I simply removed the old switch by gently pulling down on the old switch with a screwdriver. When it was about half way out I just gently pulled down on the old switch and it popped out... I removed the two connectors attached to the old switch by pulling on the connectors with a pliers...I tried using my fingers but wasn't able to pull the connectors off so I used pliers. It worked perfectly.. When pulling off the old connectors, make sure you attach the new switch to the same tabs on the new switch... It was very easy to do and took under 5 mins.....The light switch works perfect....P.S. You should unplug the frig while making the connection just in case....Safety first....!!!

Very easy doit repair. Watched Youtube video helpful. Small nut driver and flashlight the only tools needed. Ordered part with standard delivery and received the new motor in under 24 hours! Impressive. I will use Part Select again! So happy to have a working augur. No more stale ice at the bottom of the bin. No more scooping ice with fingers!

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.

Easy

Looked for the same repair on line by model number. I found it, watched the repair, then used those instructions to complete the repair on my refrigerator. The disassembly and reassembly took longer than actually replacing the part. It now works beautifully with NO leaks.

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

Removed old, installed new.
