Bezel
To dismount the bezel, first position both control
knobs to the extreme left positions; then pull the
knobs from the shafts. Grasp the two ribs of the
bezel and pull the bezel out of the mounting cleats.
To reinstall the bezel, first position the knob shafts to
the extreme left positions. Engage the ribs into the
mounting cleats and press each rib firmly to seat the
slots on the pins.
Control Module
The lamp socket, defrost control, and temperature
control are mounted to the metal control housing at
the right end of the control module. The lamp socket
can be replaced after removing the lamp and
releasing the locking tab. The defrost control can be
replaced after removing the cover at the bottom
of the control housing. However, the control
module must be removed and disassembled to
replace either the temperature control or the air
damper.
Module Removal
To remove the control module, first remove the
ice bin and dismount the icemaker.
Disconnect the wiring harness plug at the right
side of the evaporator fan housing, and pull the
control capillary (covered with a vinyl sleeve)
from behind the auger motor cover at the rear
of the ice shelf.
Next, remove the light shield, control knobs,
and bezel from the control console. Remove
the three mounting screws that secure the
module to the fresh food liner and disconnect the
ground wire at the back of the liner. Tip the
module downward at the top center support and
pull it from the liner at the right side. Withdraw the
foam nozzle, wiring harness, and control capillary
carefully to prevent damaging either the foam
nozzle or the foam insert in the compartment
divider.
