25331430102 Kenmore Refrigerator - Instructions

These were easy pop in pieces so no tools were needed. Very easy and quick. What I liked best about PartSelect.com was the pictures and labeling used in order to select the correct part. That was my biggest concern. It only took me about 15 minutes to find and buy the parts I needed.

Received 3 parts. Snapped them together. Attached them to fridge door.

Replaced broken section

Took out the old tabs that broke off (left inside the retainer bar) with a butter knife - just lifted very gently the ends to slip out the broken off old pieces then replaced with new pieces (pressed lifted sides back down with side of butter knife and then snapped back into door of fridge gently it will pop snap back in - So very very easy to do - should have done this years ago instead of living with taped ends and waiting until husband had time-smiles fridge looks new again do not wait - just do it order the pieces u need and you will be very happy U did

Shipped quick. Assembled by hand. Mounted and tested operational.

Snapped the broken end caps off the rail; snapped on the new ones; snapped the assembled rail/end caps into the door. It was a snap.

Thrilled to realize I didn't have to replace the entire bracket ($$) but was able to buy this inexpensive end cap, remove the cracked one and snap this new one in place. Inexpensive, fast and easy as pie. No tools needed. Good as new.

I followed the instructions in the video associated with the part that I ordered. The video was perfect and described everything I needed to do clearly. Repair is 100% successful!

remove food, then the shelf, then use a hot air gun to defrost and loosen the back panel, then remove the panel, then defrost the coil and thermostat area. using wire tools, replaced the defrost thermostat,and re-assembled freezwr and test

Removed old fan motor and installed new one.Not much room for big hands back there.Flexible extensions valuable on this job.

Went on line to PartSelect, found and ordered the part. It was here in two days. I removed the old shelf, inserted the new and the frig was as good as new. I was extremely pleased with the ease in identifying the part and the speed of delivery.

Replaced end cap. Very easy fix. Only took a couple of minutes.

Took old off, put caps on new bar, put bars on.

Unplugged frig. removed old switch with the aid of screw driver. removed wires and taped; plugged frig. back in and waited for new one. new one came, unplugged frig.removed tape from wire clips plugged in to switch and pushed switch into socket hole and plugged frig. back in; shut door, works like a new one.

The freezer was still making ice, but the fridge portion was barely cooler than room temp. I came to the website and saw that the defrost thermostat cured this problem over half the time. I was quite dubious because I don't see how that would affect the non-freezer part of the compartment, but since it was a cheap and easy-looking repair, I figured what the heck, lets see if that's it. Sure enough, it's like new again. I still don't understand it, but I'll take it. The repair itself is simple, just cutting out the old switch and splicing in the new. Two wires, and clip it to the copper tubing where the old one was. The switch is accessed easily after taking out four screws in the back of the freezer compartment. The only hard part was removing the ice-maker, and that's just because the two screws that hold it in are a little hard to get a good grip on. Alas, you have to get the ice-maker out to pull out the back panel, so there's nothing for it but to wheedle those screws out.
