WRF767SDEM00 Whirlpool Refrigerator - Instructions

Replaced motor

use kitchen knife to pry out. replaced switch assemble and pressed back into place. Could not have done this with out help from previous customers. Thanks

The instructions in the package were not helpful. They wanted me to cut the wiring harness and described where to cut based on the wire colors. My wires were not the same color! I removed the light mechanism using a combination of a screwdriver, putty knife, and plain old muscle with my fingers! The wiring harness unplugged easily and the new one inserted. It was easy to push the whole assembly back into the door. I spent more time looking for something to cut the wiring harness with (and never did find it) than the whole job actually took without needing to cut anything!

Popped out the old switch and replaced it with the one dying

Removed old door. Attached new door to two tabs. Done

1. Call Parts Select to confirm I’m ordering correct part.
2. When FedEx finally delivered expedited shipping, laugh at what was sent.
3. Call Parts Select and ask them to send the part I ordered, not a dryer door.
4. Wait for replacement.
5. Call Parts Select and ask them to stop sending the same, wrong part and try sending a refrigerator part instead.
6. Wait again (now 2+ weeks).
7. Call Parts Select and ask how difficult is it to match the part ordered with what is sent. Ask a 3rd time for the correct part.
8. Wonder if it’s worth it while again waiting to see what Parts Select decides to send this time.

Simply placed on the front

Simply replaced the Ice Maker container

Just plugged it in

Once I got a part that wasn't broken in transit (took them sending it 3 times for that to happen), it was a breeze. Remove old drawer, take tracks off old drawer and place on new drawer. Put new drawer in fridge.

Simply pulled out the old unit and installed new per instructions. I was going to order just the part that houses the auger and ice bucket. I was also going to purchase the lesser quality brands at deep discount but after ready the 'challenges' with all of that - spent the money and saved myself the headaches. (and scratched fingers) Easy peasy.

The switch fix but did not fix the problem. I assumed the wires go on the same way as on the old switch. Is it possible if one light Burns out, the other will not work either?

I used the video step by step. The video showed complete process to swap out the motor. It was very simple to do.

Everything went as planned except the cold temperature (freezer door switch located inside freezer) made deflection of the switch locking tab difficult to remove. Letting the switch warm up was not an option.

Remove torn old gasket.
Starting with bottom slid the gasket retainer under the door retainer lip on bottom. Repeated for top. Slid the retainer under the open side door retainer lip. Then pushed the gasket as much as possible to hing side. The slid the gasket retainer under the door retainer lip.
