Ordered 2 infinite burner controls from Appliance Parts Pros and watched the online video on the replacement of them at the same time. When they arrived promptly, I was ready to take on the job. The fix only took about 15 minutes because I was prepared after watching the video. Read more

The plastic piece on the handle where the screw goes in to hold glass door up had broke. I ordered new handle, the retainer pieces that go over the plastic pieces to lock it all in and screws that were suggested. The screws were the wrong ones. They were way too small. I already had one screw and thankfully only had to buy 1 new one because the screw was $40 and shipping’s $10 for it AND it’s on back order right now. The old retainer ring that goes over plastic piece was a nightmare to remove... Read more

Ordered, wheels, pivoted it up to either side, pried out existing broken front wheels, tapped in new wheels. Fit great. Ordering 2 more for the back wheels as they are getting brittle too. You do need 1 to 2 guys to hold the refrig while you're changing wheels. Read more

Googled the symptoms. Found the part. Watched a How To movie on YouTube. Bought the part installed the part. My wife thinks I'm a genius. Read more

Replaced motor, fan and lock-nut. My repair was on a built in Refrigerator-Freezer so most of the time was spent on pulling out and putting back the unit to get to the area I needed to behind the upper top. Read more

Unplug the fridge and slide it out from the wall. Remove the lower back cover. CLEAN EVERYTHING. We used compressed air, a vacuum, and a damp rag. The compressor was really hot because the unit was still limping along, so I set up a vortex fan to cool everything down. I removed the support wire, gently wiggled the capacitor off, then removed the relay. EASY! The overload relay was the problem. It rattled. I took it apart and found the insulator inside was shattered. It's hard to believe it was... Read more

Replaced it. Water lines are quick connect type. Putting the part back in the holding bracket was a bit challenging. Not much space to work with. Read more

Simply replaced the broken ice stripper with a new one. Read more

First I did the obvious: Changed the evaporator fan motor and condenser fan motor. Then I realized there was too little air flow from the freezer to the refrigerator, so I replaced the air baffle assembly. Now everything works again. This should have been a piece of cake, but in the 48" Kitchenaid side-by-side built-in, the baffle assembly is mounted on the side wall of the refrigerator rather than the back wall as the video showed. That means the hole for the rear of the two screws holding... Read more

Ordered a new one. Needed to talk to a lady at appliancepartspros. When it came, she was GREAT. Read more

Ordered a kit with new belt, rollers and idler pulley. Used instructions in kit, YouTube videos and instructions I found under the console of the dryer. Found that the idler pulley had frozen and that the belt was nearly worn through. Repair it self was not difficult. The problem I had was in hooking the new belt around the idler pulley. It was solved by removing the one screw holding the air discharge tube and sliding the tube rearwards. This allowed me to get my arm in behind the idler pulley... Read more
