36369667991 Kenmore Refrigerator - Instructions

Frig parts had been scavenged in an apartment complex. Restoring socket was only a matter of plugging in two spade contacts and clipping in socket.

Just as your video described, although due to the age of the fridge, it took a bit longer to remove the defective switch. Your video made this so simple, I can't imagine why we lived with a dark fridge for so long! I was ready to buy a whole new fridge, as repairmen are often nonexistent for small repairs. I am the biggest fan of your company & it's repair video. THANK YOU SO MUCH

My wife and I followed the installation video & put the gasket in hot water. We struggled to get it started in the second corner on top. Gasket had cooled down so wasn't wanting to go in the slot. I finally got the bright idea to use a hair dryer to warm the gasket as we pushed it along.
That helped us finish the installation.
Not sure the new gasket is the complete answer to the leakage at the top of the door (forming ice crystals). The MAGNETS ARE WEAK compared to my 1 year old GE top freezer refrigerator!
My newer refrigerator "snaps" shut.

I matched the part I needed throught your web site. Then I called and spoke to a customer support person, and gave my personal information to her. I do not like giving my credit card numbers over the internet. Your site allows me to do that.

i found that the door was to low was the problem shimmed the hinge on the bottom brought the door up so the gasket was ok so isent the new gasket back to you never attempted to change so i dont have any thing to tell you about instalation difficulty carl phillips

Using plyers Pulled old switch down and out. Put new one in and pushed new switch up into position. The switch plugs into the contacts, no wiring needed. Worked like a charm. You saved me 200 dollars GE repair bill. Thanks

Gently pry out switch in door jam with screwdriver and pull both connectors off and put connectors on new switch then push switch back into the hole. Looked it up on the internet and video showed how to and also had link to new part, ordered and less than a week later the fridge is bright again. I have an older freezer also and it seems that they all use the same switches. Very Very easy

removed the inside fridge electrical panel and swapped switches

easy pry out, disconnect wiring, connect on new switch and press in switch.

easily popped the new one in.

I took it right out of the framed box to keep the gasket in shape and snapped it back on the gasket mount on the freezer door it took 5 minutes or less perfect fit

refrigerator was not cooling. with new fan the refrigerator is working so well I had to turn it down to "1" to get the temerature right.

Removed ice cube tray and fan cover using a cross-tip screwdriver. Old air duct foam had been damaged by defrosting meat and made entire refrigerator smell. Part easily slides out and slid in knew foam. Replaced with new air duct foam after thoroughly cleaning refrigerator by sliding it into place, replacing fan cover and ice cube tray. Hardest part of entire replacement was cleaning refrigerator. The actual replacement of the part took less than 15 minutes.

First I flipped breaker to off position for refigerator, Pulled down on socket and broke it free. Then took needle nose piars to pull wire and plug out from hole, so I could conect to new light socket then snaped it in place . Hardest part was getting wire and plug out of hole.

Replaced cap and reinstalled. But I used iron nail inside cover to hold right side because crack was at right hole and right part would not help.
