Dan D for Model Number FRS26HF6BW2 Hi, My damper is either stuck wide open (refridge freezes to 21 degs F) or stuck closed (refridge stays around 49 degs F). Right now I am trying to pull out the entire themostat and damper control module to see how hard or easy this job is. It is not easy because there are probes going from module into the freezer section that I can not get out. Also, I am having trouble getting the housing around the water filter on the top right side loose so I can replace the thermostats. It is some how attached to the top even though I have removed ALL screws. Any instructions that you have on replaceing this module (5304482075) would be very helpful.
Answer Hello Dan, To remove the control assembly of unit there are 2 screws in the left side assembly, all screws 1/4" hex head. There is 3 screws across the holding the front part of control panel in. There is a screw holding in the cover that covers the tubing that goes to the water filter. Once the tubing cover is removed and the 2 screws holding the filter head in place are removed you will then have 1 screw left on the back side of where the filter head would be in between the two tubes that go to the filter head. Once all the screws are removed you should be able to pull entire assembly out. The thermostat that goes to the freezer side is fed through a guide and would just be pulled out and reinserted when putting back in place. Read More...
