78509 (AWB4SER) LG Refrigerator - Instructions

Had to wedge old glass into groove in white frame. Best to put glass in before placing in refrigerator! And still the glass is a little big/thick. But good enough! Done

I took a very thin bladed screwdriver and took the old part out -carefully.
The new part fit in quite easily.

Replace with new switch. this is the third switch i have replaced in 10 years. the only part, besides a light bulb, that has gone bad. obviously this is a problem with this model for Kenmore, or just poor switch design.

slid out the old one and slid in the new one.

Followed instructions online

Swapped old one with new one. New one had extra plug not needed.

The ice bin I ordered did not arrive on time and, when tracking indicated it was delivered, it was not here. I notified customer service and was told that they would cancel that order and I could order again.and make a payment, to include shipping, again and I would be reimbursed. Two days later the first order showed up. I notified customer service that the item had shown up and I installed it therfore requested the second order be deleted. Was told that it was already enroute and they would send me necessary paperwork to return it. upon receipt of the paperwork I followed the instructions bur, when I contacted UPS (as directed) was advised that I would have to pay shipping of about $19. unless Partselect requested and paid for shipping and sent me the shipping label. I received the shipping label but, when I contacted UPS was advised that I would stoll have to pay to have the item picked up at my house and, unless I wanted to pay that cost I should deliver the package to a UPS pick up location........all the way across town through heavy traffic, about 25 miles. I should have kept the second bin along with the first, given it away or thrown it away and the cost would have been re imbursed. Trying to do the right thing, I was responsible for additional cost and aggravation .......Thanks a lot!!!!

Removed back panel and water inlet valve and replaced with a new water inlet valve

I removed the old table, removed the glass, as the new part did not come with glass and removed the front side support. I simply installed both the glass and support on the new part and re-installed the parts.
Couldn't be more simple!!!

Unable to complete repair, had to send parts back
Part should have been PS11732074, but got PS11732704- wrong part
This was a substitute part and was 2" too long

Waiting for refund on this part. It cost me $14.50 to return it by UPS!!!

I have moderate to good mechanical skills, but getting the old switch out was a sizeable challenge. Since this switch suffered some damage during extraction, I was lucky to have ordered a new one to replace it. Reinstall took approximately 90 seconds. PartSelect saved me an expensive service call.

Covered the sidewall with tape to protect. Pried the switch out with knife blade and removed electric plug with needle nose pliers. placed plug in new switch and pushed switch into the hole in the side wall. Took about five minutes.

Unscrewed what remained from broken door stop, aligned new one, screwed it in. Done!

Removed upper drawer/basket from freezer

Removed 2 Philips screws

Removed rail bracket assembly

Reinstalled reversing those steps

Works like new.
Happy wife. Happy life. FYI- I am nearly 77 yrs young.

Slid new bin into place. It works perfectly now.
