THERMOSTAT

"Quite hard to get the thermostat out of the plastic molding in the top of the fridge but we got there. if i can do this anyone can by reading the instructions below. once the molding was off took 10 minutes."

"Switch off power, remove thermostat cover, remove the thermostat and replace new one"

"The replacement of the thermostat involves the disconnection of electrical control wires and therefore the task should only be undertaken by a licenced electrician or service agent. basic guide for electricians service agents. 1. turn off refrigerator and remove power plug from wall. 2. open refrigerator door and remove lamp cover to expose front screws that secure temperature control housing. 3. pull the temperature control dial off the thermostat shaft to expose the thermostat mounting screws (if its too hard leave it for now youll get another chance later). 4. remove the metal shelf guide left side of temperature control housing (3 screws 2 long 1 short) to gain access to the rear left mounting screw of the temperature control housing. 5. remove 4 short screws holding temperature control housing in place. 6. gently lower the housing and plastic grill at the right rear of the housing (this holds the thermostat temperature sensor) to gain access to the thermostat. 7 (a). if you were able to remove the temperature dial earlier remove the thermostat mounting screws and lift the thermostat out. (b). if you were not able to remove the dial earlier gentle push the dial off the shaft from the inside and then remove the mounting screws. 8. disconnect the wires from the thermostat and remove the sensor off the small plastic grill. 9. you can now connect the wires to the new thermostat and re-install making sure to re-attach the sensor to the grill."

"Make sure you disconnect power...rest is very simple...if not sure take photos during the removal of the faulty thermostat."

"Ensure fridge is turned off and remove plug. unscrew the housing around the thermostat (2 screws). pull off the thermostat dial. unscrew the two screws holding the thermostat to the housing. take a photo of the wiring. remove wiring plugs from old unit and replace with new unit. mount the thermostat wire as per the previous using white insulation. then replace everything in reverse order."
