59679513013 Kenmore Refrigerator - Instructions

The video on the part select website with the Canadian gentleman was absolutely the best! My wife and I watched it and was able to accomplish the replacement with no surprises or issues. One tip that we could add is that the orientation of the temperature sensor was not specified in the video, but the slot seemed to work better for one orientation versus another. It has been a couple weeks since the repair and the refrigerator is working like it did when we first purchased it.

in stalled new circuit board an thermostat an was fixed

Remove light lens by pushing straight back (needs some oomph, but not too much). Remove control housing by prying spring clips in back of housing with thin screwdriver or knife. Remove old control board by releasing plastic clips on both sections and removing 2 wiring plugs. Be careful snapping new control board in ; the alignment of the 4 switches and the 2 readouts is critical - easy to hang up a switch. Snap the control housing back into place, making sure that it is all the way in. Position the light lens so that it is lined up and about 1/2" back and then slide it forward (toward you) into place. The instruction sheet calls the refrigerator section the "fresh food" section. There are 2 light switches, one for each door. Both have to held down to get light to go out and enter programming mode. Easiest to close the right door, then push left door switch and quickly push the freezer DOWN button 3 times. Follow the instructions to set the program on the display and then push AND HOLD the freezer DOWN button until the display starts flashing. Release the freezer DOWN button, close the doors, open the doors to check. Display will indicate two 4s. (that was what mine indicated). Done.

Took the food out. A couple of screw removals. Put drawer lid on and then put the screws in. Nothing to it.

Wasn't a big deal. Removed the the shelves and glass immediately above the endcap as well as the large 'goumet' draw. Used a nutdriver to remove two screws. Popped off the old endcap and did everything in reverse. Replaced the long clear goumet draw cover that was still intact. Thanks for making it easy!!!!

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.

Removed glass shelf and inserted plastic running bar for drawers

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

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,

I replaced both side. The left side I very easy to replace. It has 2 screws holding the end cap in place and the tracking has 2 screws holding it in. Undo the 4 screws and put the track on the new end cap and then you are good to go to install the new end cap on the left side. Now for the right side is easy, but you now have to also undo 2 screws and other 2 for the track just like left side but also you are going to have to undo the humidity control stuff and put it on the new end cap.

I replaced the Control Board...
the two boards need to be installed first . than plug in the connectors
(refrigerator was unplugged of course.!) i plugged in the connectors first. and had to disconnect them. install the boards first. than plug in the electrical connectors.. strange for a day or two it still did not work properly and than one day. it started working ok 7 on the freezer and 3 on the refrigerator. I do not know why..
