1068265513 Kenmore Freezer - Instructions

Everything worked perfectly---thanks to the suggestion of your call center agent. She suggested that since the replacement door handles were no longer available, I should consider repainting them--it worked like a charm. Please tell her she was a life saver. We rent that house in Fl and my returning tenants had complained about the discoloring refer handles. Thank you

New freezer being delivered Monday

Please bear in mind I am 65 years old & it was harder to get up & down off the floor then to change the switch. Was very easy - watched video, unplugged unit. I used the putty knife at the right front corner to work loose, when it came loose had to loose the left side a little. The unit pulled out easily. detached the wired that had a single plug with 2 prongs on it. Attached the plug, pushed new switch into place. There was no way you could place wires on wrong prong. When done, plugged refrigerator back in & checked if working. I CAN SEE THE LIGHT and the food in the freezer now. Thank you for making an easy repair.

Part-fect!!!

I tried to remove the old light switch using a putty knife and a hammer. It was hard to compress the plastic tabs to pull it back through the hole, but all of a sudden, the lights came on. I guess banging on the switch freed-up the contacts. The new switch is now a spare part in case I need it.

(1)Remove all items stored in the inner door. (2)Remove all the shelves from the inner door. (3) Remove the top hinge cover screw and remove rhe hinge cover. (4) Remove the upper hinge (5) lift the door out of the lower hinge bracket and lay flat on a table or counter top. (6) Swap out the old parts with the new parts. (6) reassemble.

I watched the video and then ordered the parts. My job was a little easier because the door was already tapped for a 10-32 bolt. Total time including set and tear down was less than an hour. Watching the video first made the job very simple.

Replaced bracket-amazed to find how quickly I was able to id the part on this 20 year old refrigerator. Ordered the part and received it the next day! Thanks for the good service! , Bob

replaced cam, new one broke after opening door 3 times...

A You Tube video described the repair steps and by following these instructions the whole process worked seamlessly.

Fridge side: Remove all door bins. Close the door. Pry off top hinge cap. Using 5/16" nut driver, remove three screws. Remove top hinge by lifting it up. Place pad on floor to prevent marring. Hold door at sides. Open door halfway and lift it up and off the bottom hinge. Do not let door fall! Set door on pad. The lower and upper cams are different; do not mix them up (check the parts list). Remove the old lower cam from the hinge (on fridge) and install new lower cam with new screw. Remove the old upper cam from the bottom of door and install new one with shoulder screw provided. If the old cam does not have the shim, do not use the shim from kit. The kit has extra parts and screws. Lift up the door and set it on the lower hinge pin and close it. Reinstall the upper hinge and shim loosely with the three screws. Adjust the door before tightening the screws. Check that the gasket is compressed evenly all around. Open and close the door. The door should close easily. If the door does not close easily, remove it again and smear some Vaseline on the lower hinge pin and cam. Replace the door and put a little Vaseline on the upper hinge pin before inserting it into the door. Finally, replace the upper hinge cap and replace the door bins. Repeat procedure for freezer side. This fridge does not have water/ice dispenser in the door.

Googled for a solution to how to fix a refrigerator door that would not close. Was directed to a video from PartSelect. Was wrong brand, but I got the general idea. Then, I looked up a refrigerator repair for Whirlpool. Called PartSelect with my model number and ordered a Cam Kit. Total cost shipped $20. Arrived in two days during the Holidays! Nice! (Ordered 12/23, Arrived 12/26). Opened package, fired the video up. Fixed in 15 minutes. Amazing!

I took the upper three screws pull the door up and then removed the broker part in the bottom of door by removing one screw. Install new part and put door back securing it by the three screws on the top of regrigerator. Very easy

followed the video as instructed. Saved two repairman calls, one to find the problem, one to install. Net savings was about $130.00

I tried to just replace the cover rather than the whole unit but it was impossible - the cover would not go/stay on. I tried to remove the old unit completely but it would not unplug it was practically fused to the back of the fridge and the liner was cracking. I ended up breaking the cover and jerry rigging it over the bulb to prevent items in the fridge from being able to touch. Bad solution.
