AC2224PEKB12 Amana Refrigerator - Instructions

Ordered parts from Parts Select. They were here like overnight!! Unreal. Supports just slipped in. Absolutely easy. This was my first order ever from Part Select but have a feeling it won't be my last. Parts were here so fast I did not know what had arrived until I opened the package as I had not expected them so quickly! very satisfied.

Replaced the drawer

Unplugged appliance. Using a small putty knife I moved the switch out far enough to grab it with pliers. Moved wiring to new switch and pushed into place after testing.

I opened the refrigerator door and removed the cracked crisper pan. Removed the vegetables and placed them in the new crisper and returned it to the refrigerator. Installation was less than 1 minute!

Installing the switch was a breeze, the tough part was removing the old switch. I watched a video on the PartSelect website which showed how to remove and reinstall the switch. I attempted to remove the switch the same way that they showed on the video, but the problem was my switch was surrounded with foam insulation which was stuck to the old switch. I attempted to pull out the switch but was not able to extricate the switch. Finally, I called a friend who works with these switches and he cut away the foam insulation and removed the switch. Being the handyman that I am, I was able to reinstall the new switch. Hope this helps anyone with an Amana refrigerator that has the light switch on the side wall instead of in the light console like the video showed. Don't be afraid to cut away the foam on the right and left sides and the bottom. Don't cut away at the top, because that is where the wire connections are located and you might cut those off and then you'll be ordering more parts. Good luck.

Was a very tight fitting part and it had to be gently tapped into place.

unplug refrigerator, take backing off with nut driver. Pull old blade off and put new blade on. Put backing back on and plug in.
