FRFN2823AS5 Frigidaire Refrigerator - Instructions

The part i recieved, from parts select was a larger in circumfrence (<1/4) than the original. However i was not aware of this until after i treid to repair it.

I removed the broken fan from the condenser. This was very sipmle.

When i pluged the refridgerator back in to the outlet the fan tried to start up but soon began to make aloud noise, due to there not being enough clerance.

Followed the simple instructions on the device and in the appliance use and care manual

Removed screw on Mullion so that the replacement hinge can slide onto the small plastic bracket on the door. Slid the mullion on the hinges and screwed in muliion (1 screw).

Pulled the old seal out of the groove. Placed new seal in the groove. New seal has to be heated and massaged to get it into proper form so it does not leak. I have been continuously heating and massaging to get the seal to get it in the proper form. Been working on it for a week. Almost there.

SIMPLY REMOVE THE OLD GASKET PULLING LIGHTLY BY HAND
THEN PUSHING THE NEW GASKET BY HAND

The first order arrived in a huge box and there was no scew to be found, the box had wholes in it. I was given a refund and told to order again.



The repair did not happen and the set screw which was actually recieved the second time was returned because it was the wrong size.

I REMOVED THE OLD GASKET BEING VERY CAREFUL TO SEE EXACTLY HOW IT CAME OFF. I INSERTED THE LOCKING INSERT INTO THE TRACK IN THE DOOR WHICH DID NOT FIT AS THE OLD ONE DID. AFTER USING TREMENDOUS FORCE WITH MULTIPLE TOOLS I DID MANAGE TO GET THE TOP AND THE SIDES TO LOCK INTO PLACE AND EVENTUALLY HOLD. THE BOTTOM OF THE GASKET DID NOT HOLD SO I USED CLEAR CAULK AND TAPE TO HOLD THE GASKET IN UNTIL THE CAULK CURED. AFTER THE CAULK CURED THE GASKET HAS, SO FAR, REMAINED TIGHT.

I had no problems. Screws arrived sooner than expected. It was a very simple installation. Very pleased with both the product and service.

Simple tightening of the screw with the right tool.

I had to tap the screw holes with a 8/32 tap so that the screws would not bind.
