Module Disassembly
The freezer temperature control and the fresh food air damper are operated by rack and pinion gears.
To disassemble the control module, the two gear racks must be removed from the control channel.
First, slide the damper rack off at the right end. Then, lift the serrated arm of the control rack (to
disengage the control gear) and slide the control rack off at the left end. Pull the gears from the air
damper and the temperature control. (The gears are fitted onto shafts in the same manner as standard
temperature control knobs.) The damper is mounted to the left end of the control channel with two
screws. The temperature control is mounted to the right end of the control channel with two screws that
also secure the control housing.
