Refrigerator not cooling but freezer icing up? The defrost timer controls the defrost cycle. Most DIYers replace it in 5-15 minutes with our video guide.
My problem first showed up as varying temperature in both sections of my old mid 1970’s Frigidaire model FPCI-170T-7 refrigerator, which is not listed on most appliance repair databases. Running on the warm side from time to time, as well as sudden fan noise (probably the fan blade hitting ice build-up on the evaporator coil) alerted me to a possible defrost system problem, since the compressor was cooling. The evaporator fan eventually failed after a day or so, and a major repair was... Read more

Looked up the parts and ordered new parts. This business was great. The order was here fast, and easy to track. Also loved they had the video attached to the part I ordered for easy change out. Would recommend them to anyone for repairing your appliances. They make this easy for finding the part and installing yourself. Read more
Rubber grommet that seals and cushions where the evaporator fan motor shaft mounts. Replace if cracked, worn, or missing to eliminate noise and vibration.
It was after 11:00 at night a few nights ago, I couldn't sleep listening to the whining of the fan in the freezer, it was running and making noise sounding like waaoooww, waaaoww. It also sounded like grumbling of a garbage disposal. The refrigerator fan motor was so noisy it was keeping me up all night going on and off running really loud and about to fail. So I was desperate, and called AppliancePartsPros when I couldn't get to sleep near midnight because the fan was so noisy and Bud in... Read more
Leaking water from your refrigerator or no water/ice from dispenser? This water inlet valve controls flow to ice maker and dispenser. DIY repair in 30 min.
I replaced the solenoid valve and trimmed a small amount of the tubing that serves the ice maker and water dispenser. The only problem was there is almost NO slack in that tubing. If you trim more than a half inch off, you won't have enough tubing to connect it on both ends. Read more

Creates an airtight seal on your refrigerator door to prevent cold air loss and condensation. Replace when cracked, torn, or not sealing properly.
Right-side gasket replacement was straightforward. Left side required removal of mullion, which stumped me. I contacted Appliance Parts Pros who gave me the necessary instructions: Remove the center screw and lift up the mullion. Simple enough, once I knew how to do it. Read more
Ice maker stopped working or producing misshapen ice? This complete assembly replaces a faulty ice maker. Moderate DIY repair, about 1 hour with basic tools.
This was easier then I made it. Originally took the actual ice maker out without removing the whole system from the door. There are 3 silver screws that do that hold the whole mechanism in place, as opposed to the 5 white screws that hold the ice maker in place. With the entire assembly out it was a matter of routing the ground wire, retaping the wires, and then the whole assembly went back into the door without a problem. Need a phillips and a flat screwdriver, I also found a needle nose... Read more
Seals freezer door to maintain temperature and prevent ice buildup. Replace if doors won't stay shut or ice forms. Confirm fit by model.
Door gasket was easy to remove and reinstall. Original gasket was penetrated while cleaning food stuff from folds in the seal below the frig doors. (Gasket is very fragile so don't try to expand the folds while cleaning. I used my finger and a paper towel but in hindsight should have used a Q-Tip. Also, when installing the new gasket you have to be sure the seam folds over the edge of the door and doesn't get caught underneath. Read more
Freezer runs constantly or has frost buildup? The defrost thermostat regulates temperature to prevent ice on coils. DIY-friendly repair in 1-2 hours.
Fixed it by replacing the electronic control board. Only 30 min. to fix. (See further down for effort to diagnose the problem.) Most of this "fixing time" was spent removing the control panel to access the control board that is attached to it. My freezer has the control panel located in the top center of the door. The only way to remove the control panel is to pry the panel out of the door using a thin-bladed putty knife.The instructions provided were very good in explaining the process;... Read more
Ice won't dispense? A broken auger often causes this. This helical shaft pushes ice from bucket to chute. DIY-friendly repair, about 20 minutes.
This was a little more involved than I originally thought, but after watching the video on the site it wasn't so bad. They walk you through each step verbally and visibly so you can see exactly what to do. Replacing the auger took around 20 minutes, and only that long because the screw holding the ice shield was a bit tough to turn. I just applied gentle pressure and turned slowly until it became loose. The rest was fairly easy, but I did get a small cut from the ice crusher blades. Nothing... Read more

Replacement shelf frame that sits above the crisper drawer in your refrigerator. Order a new frame if yours is cracked, broken, or missing mounting holes.
Used the schematic provided to select the parts needing replacement and placed the order. Parts arrived and swapping new for old was simple. For the most part it was a matter of taking out the old and putting in the new. There were a few screws with wheels to replace but that was easy as well. Before purchase I searched several different sites and found all the parts needed. I compared prices of each item as well as shipping cost. Prices for each item were nearly identical between sites...

Guides condensation from the defrost cycle to the evaporation pan. Replace if cracked, clogged, or causing water leaks and ice buildup in the freezer.
The drain tube for for the defrost cycle seemed to be blocked, so I googled the repair & it sent me to AppliancePartsPros. Obviously, there's a design problem with this model since many other people have the same issue. This tube is an upgrade on the original for my KitchenAid model (design flaw). Since installation 4 days ago, I have had no leaks - awesome! The video for installation of the new tube on AppliancePartsPros was excellent. Two additions to the video: 1) I used a hair dryer...

Compressor clicks and won't start? Run capacitor helps start and run the compressor motor. Most DIYers replace in under 15 minutes with basic tools.
Noticed Rolls on the top shelf no longer frozen, though the meat around it still was. Note: This is a good test, keep something that thaws quickly and is not expensive on top shelf, to act as a barometer for your freezer health! I first found a trip online to advance the defrost timer, as a failed timer is a common issue. I advanced the timer, but nothing happened. I emptied the freezer, then removed the thermostat and tested it. No continuity! With the Freezer continuing to thaw, I... Read more
Ice dispenser not working or auger broken? This ice bucket auger moves ice from storage to the dispenser chute. DIY repair in 30-45 minutes with video.
I watched the video that you provided and the repair went very smoothly. The video was specific to the exact part that I purchased. Great instruction and easy repair! Read more
