All Installation Instructions for Frigidaire Refrigerator FGHT1832PP2

My Frig Light Stopped

I am a 65 year old woman with no mechanical aptitude: I just unplugged the frig. And used a screw driver to pry of the plastic socket from its outside edge. . Then you just unplug two tiny contact plugs that appear when you pull out the socket and replug in those two the same way on the new part. Pop the socket back into the hole . . . . And screw in the new bulb. I knew I needed the socket part cause when the bulb burned out , a new bulb still did not work. . . If I can do it, anyone can!

Parts Used:

Light Socket

Light Bulb

The crisper glass shelf shatter when trying to clean it.

The repair, if you want to call it that, was a complete no-brainer. The glass slipped right into the shelf. No tools were needed. I was afraid that the glass might break during shipment. However, it was packaged and secured several times over that it was in no danger of breaking during delivery. The part came sooner than I anticipated. I am extremely pleased with this order.

Freezer door sagging due to warped hinge

Just block the door up so it doesn't fall off, remove the two screws, replace hinge, and replace screws. My wife could have done it. Metal replacement part is much better than the original plastic that warped from day one.

Upper Hinge

Original plastic hinge cracked across the middle

Removed 2 hex screws & old hinge, placed new hinge on cabinet & found that it didn't fit; one hole was about 1/8" off. Had to drill a new hole in cabinet top in order to attach new hinge. Hinge works fine now. I'm glad to find the hinge is metal; original one was plastic.

Light Would Not Come On.

I removed the four bolts holding the light switch and temp knob with a nut driver, unplugged the unit and moved it to the table top. I removed the switch and replaced it with a new one. I plugged the unit back in and drove the four screws in with a nut driver and the light now comes on when I open the door. Real simple!

Broken upper door bin

I received the lower door bin rather than the upper one that was needed. Ordered the correct one and it was received the next day. Both parts were received the next day. I appreciate the ultra-prompt service.

The bottom door shelf would fall off even if there weren't a lot of jars and bottles on it.

All we had to do was remove the bad door shelf by just taking it off - very easy to snap off - it takes about 10 seconds. Then we replaced it just as easily. The new one fits perfectly and we can put many bottles and jars on it, thus giving us more room on the shelves in the refigerator to store things.
