BX521VE (P1325033W B) Amana Refrigerator - Instructions

I tried to remove the old light switch using a putty knife and a hammer. It was hard to compress the plastic tabs to pull it back through the hole, but all of a sudden, the lights came on. I guess banging on the switch freed-up the contacts. The new switch is now a spare part in case I need it.

Sorry for delay in writing. Part I ordered arrived two days ago and it was exactly what I needed. Knowing that there will be problems even with the smallest job I procrastinated starting. When I did start this morning I foud I had to completely remove the ice maker and disassemble it in order to install the water fill cup bracket. The challenge was reassembling the unit. Not hard for an experienced repairman but a challenge for layman. Everything is thing is back to gether now and power on cooling down the refrigerator. Won't know how successful it was until turn on water and ice is formed. If it works this saved $75 just to get a Sears repairman to come out and tell me what would be needed to fix the refrigerator and $1,000 if I had to buy a new refrigerator. Extremely satisfied with service I received. Thank you.

your video was somewhat helpful. it showed a hinged freezer door, the replacement was for a pull out freezer door. had to remove the door from the freezer and then remove old gasket, removed all 32 hex heads and removed basket brackets, lifted inside off door, replaced gasket, and finished assembly. success

Well, that was fun. Just finished replacing the broken seal on wifey's freezer. While at it, I cleaned all the inserts, fridge/freezer inside and out, floor behind and under, forgot where all the slider/shelve things came out of, leveled the repaired unit, and am testing to see if it gets cold. Seal replacement job was one hour, total project was three days. All I say is "it better work for another eight years!"

I removed the bottom compartment completely from the refrigerator , making the job much easier. I removed all the screws and then set the gasket starting with the corners making sure the inner groove of the gasket sat inside the bottom lip . I used a putty knife to raise up the tray that has this lip and slightly working the gasket down into position with my finger Do Not use the putty knife to set the gasket. When the gasket was set on one side I added a few screws to keep the gasket from popping out of place. When finished I used a hair dryer on one side to help conform the gasket to make contact with the fridge. The unit is running fine with no problems. The install job took me 1hr and 15Min

Took ice maker out all together we removed 4 to 5 screws had to remove axel to get the broken piece out and new one in my husband said it was easy in and out in about 15 minutes saved about 150. 00 Thanks partslect

No instructions with part. Found a picture on line and changed the arm, but it didn't fix the problem. Fairly easy after figured out what needed to be done to get to the part.

After receiving the new part almost immediately,using two screw drivers, removed the broken switch from the plastic frame. Be careful not to scratch or otherwise tear the plastic...very pliable. Since the original switch was factory installed and the wires were packed in fiberglass insulation, the switch came out but the wires and clips were still in place and could not reach the new switch. It was necessary to pull them down with bent long nose pliers...used a lot of "pull" but the wires held up.Connected the switch, turned the power on and there was light! Reports from other users really took the uncertainty out of the task.

Thanks to some reviews we found online about replacing gaskets, ours went very smoothly. One person said to soak the gasket in hot water, which we did til it was very soft. Installed like a breeze. Then, the same person said to tape the door closed after installation, we did that too. The gasket looks like it was professionally installed and we have never done it before. Thanks!

Removed fill tube and replaced it with new.

took the fridge door off, took off old part that didn't work, replaced with new metal door stop (small part). Perfect-o problem solved with a $5 part! Customer Service here was AWESOME! THANK YOU! WILL SHOP HERE AGAIN.

followed the video as instructed. Saved two repairman calls, one to find the problem, one to install. Net savings was about $130.00

This is an easy fix, simply remove and replace. What I was impressed with is that a how to video was provided along with my part. I wish all manufactures would offer this, the video was easy to understand and you had a good view of the operation. Thanks, a job well done.
