7KRSF77EST00 KitchenAid Refrigerator - Instructions

Just needed to replace the water filter

Remove the ice bucket and check that the auger that turns in the ice bucket is free to turn. Cover the open freezer with cardboard or whatever to retain most of the freezer temperature. Remove the holder that supports the top of the motor shaft. Check the splines on the upper part of the motor shaft and also check the seal under the holder. Open the access the door to the motor, remove wiring connector and unbolt the motor. Check the lower splines on motor shaft for condition, clean the shaft and apply new grease to the splines. Before installing, connect the wiring to the new motor, push the door switch in, press the ice dispenser arm outside the door to make sure the motor runs. If all ok, check the motor shaft for fit in the new motor. Be careful not to install the motor shaft too deep in the motor splines, otherwise there may not be enough spline showing on the top end to engage the auger. Bolt the motor in place, close access door and install the holder and ice bucket and make sure everything works. If there is not enough spline showing thru the holder to engage the auger, take pliers and pull the shaft up a bit. This seems to be a hit or miss fit on the shaft but you can adjust the height of the shaft without taking every thing apart again. That's all, not difficult at all. But do check parts and pieces for anything else you might need, parts wise, before ordering the motor by itself like I did. Shipping is high, so try to order any associated parts needed when you order the motor. By the way, This site are great to work with!

Remove drawer and install new drawer.

I ordered the filters that were needed and received the wrong items. After reordering and then receiving the proper items the installation went very well.

I unplugged the refrigerator. Located the panel for the main board which was on the left side as you look at the back of the refrigerator. I unplugged the the wires to the board and removed the board. I installed the new one and plugged the wires into it. They are different plugs so you can’t mix them up. I then put the door back on. Plugged the refrigerator back into the outlet. It took less than 15 minutes.

Pried out old part with screwdriver. Unplugged. When new part came, just plugged it in and pushed the part into place.

I pulled the socket out and unplugged the wires. I replaced the light socket by plugging in the wires and snapping the light socket into place. A very simple fix.

bulbs were not burnt out. received the new switch in a few days. watch the short video, was good to see how it comes out. used a putty knife to release the defective switch, removed wires put them on the new one and posed the new switch back in. Not bad Part cost $11.00 7 dollars shipping so for 17 bucks it works great. nice to see what is inside the refer!

Easily removed old filter and inserted the new one

Eased the putty knife under the edge of the switch housing and pried it off. Pulled two wires off the old terminals and hooked them onto the new one and reinstalled into the refrigerator body.

When the snack pan is packaged there are two plastic bags located on the side rails of the pan they are filled with a thermoset foam to trap the pan in the shipping container. If not enough foam is placed in the bags or the box is placed on the ground with the rear side down in a forceful way the pan can come loose from the foam packaging. The shipping container had no damage on the outside. There was no marking on the box this side up or fragil. One of the rear ears of the snack pan had broken off about 1" from the end.

We looked up the problem online with the model number of the refrigerator. We ordered the part and followed the video installation that was sent with the order and was found online prior to purchasing

Remove plastic cover, unscrew bulb, screw the new one in.
