59678532802 Kenmore Refrigerator - Instructions

Replaced motor it was not issue. Now I am stuck with a $300 motor I cannot return. When I say will not dispense ice everyone thinks it does not make ice. Auger does not turn to push ice out the door. Reason I thought it was auger motor when you push lever on door the auger turns about one eight of a turn. So, it would seem it is getting signal and power. Cannot find any articles on this specific issue. If anyone has a suggestion, please share.

Googled how to replace door gaskets and watched a video and did what it said and was so easy. took longer to remove everything and the shelves and storage bins and wash down the refrigerator than replace the door gaskets.

Open the existing cover and carefully with the thumb and index fingers, pry the cover at over the left pin and remove the cover. Place the replacement onto the right pin and pry the left placing it over the left and you are done.

Open the refirigerator door and push and hold the On/Off button at the top to turn off internal power. Open the freezer door and move the icemaker switch on the right side freezer wall to "off".

To get access to the icemaker, first remove a hinged plastic door that mounts to the ceiling of the freezer compartment by two hex screws. Remove the screws and the door so you can work with the icemaker without interference.

The icemaker assembly will slide out once the wireharness has been disconnected. To disconnet the wire harness, a while plastic shield has to be removed from the right side of the icemaker, just behind the water inlet.
Locate a hex screw on the bottom right rear of the icemaker and remove it with a socket wrench. Then the plastic cover can be pulled off.

Slide the icemaker out enough so you can get your fingers on the plug connector. It takes some effort to pull the plug connectors apart. Once unplugged the whole icemaker assembly can be removed.

The motor module is located on the left side and is protected by a white cover. This cover is not attached so it can be pulled off to reveal the motor module.

Remove 3 screws from the outside of the motor module and the module can be pulled out of the housing. Insert the new motor module. The module turns the shaft of the ice srapper arm. the shaft has a D shape which mates with the hole in the motor module so you may have to roatate the scrapper arm until the shaft shape matches up with the hole shape in the motor module.

Once the motor module is seated, replace the 3 screws and push the white cover back on.

Position the icemaker so you can reconnect the wireharness plug connectors. Once connected you can push the icemaker asembly back into the grooves of shelf rail. Reattach the while protector shield which covers up the wire harness plugs.

Open the refirigerator door and push and hold the power button to turn internal power back on. Move the icemaker switch on the right wall of the freezer to the "on" position and close the door.

The icemaker should start making ice within 2 hours.

took out the drawers and glass shelf and unscrewed the sides took parts for drawer glide off put them on the new part reinstallled saved $110 service cll and $20 on the part!

Originally I took the module off and found that a small plastic part had broken. Both pieces were still there, so I super glued them together and reassembled the unit. It worked great for a couple months. I realized it needed a more permanent fix, so I found the model # and looked up the part. That was very easy on your website. I ordered the part expecting it to take 4-7 days. It was at my house in two days! 15 minutes later I was makin' ice, and makin' my wife happy. Thank you for an all around great experience. I'll definitely buy from you again.

An ideal opportunity to clean the tracks for the glass top and sides. I just removed the two (2) screws with nut driver and gently eased the end cap off by slightly pulling it forward and up, inserting the lid onto the new endcap and slipping the cap back into place securing with the two screws. as easy as pie. I did not change the right end cap as there was no need for it, But if U have to change it U must also first disconnect the back plate.

Just removed drawers and glass plate. Put in divider and replaced drawers and glass plate. I was done in 5 minutes. no tools required.

Removed glass shelf and inserted plastic running bar for drawers

It took longer to empty the items off the shelf than it did to do the repair. Slid the veg, drawers out, set them aside.Took glass shelf out set it aside. removed three screws with 1/4in socket. Removed end cap. replaced with new end cap, replaced screws, cleaned and replaced shelf and drawers. Was a very easy task. these pegs break very easy, this is the second time I have had to replace the end cap, both times it was the left size. problem is you have to buy both the left and the right side together,

took out old lid, took out drawers above this drawer to make it easier to work on. installed new drawer simple by hand with no tools. put other drawers back. very simple no tools needed.

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.

watched video
took me less than 5min. to replace inlet valve.
an cleaned my frig at the same time that took me longer to do.

last time i tried it right away after removing from shipping box.. relaxing with with hot air gun... was not to easy... this time i allowed gaskets to relax for a week on a flat surface. in a warm room.... took less than 5 minutes per door.... no hot air needed.... VERY easy.

Took off old one and just replaced new, very easy and corrected problems!
