Jean for Model Number ARS2364AW I just ordered the Defrost Timer (AP4246797). It sounds like it is located in the back of the refrigerator next to the compressor. Can I use a regular screw driver for the hexagon screws to get the cover off. Is it on the left or right side in the back (facing the back of the refrigerator)? Are there any wires to connect. Will instructions be sent with the part? I have a small metal box about 6" long on the left side of the front of my refrigerator behind the plastic grill cover. Someone thought it was located in that box in the front. Do you need any special skill in installing the new timer? I have never done this before. Thanks.
Answer Hello Jean. The defrost timer R0131577 is located in the front of the unit. You will need to remove the toe grill and the metal box it is in. Then unplug the wires going to it and plug into new timer. The refrigerator will need to be unplugged to do this repair. Hope this helps. Read More...
