GTH18LBDERWW General Electric Refrigerator - Instructions

I had lost the bottom hinge during a move and so I rigged the hinge using an old tv antenna and the door never really quite worked right and it was VERY annoying. I stumbled upon this site and was surprised how inexpensive the part I needed was. I was very impressed with the speed of shipping and the install took maybe 5 minutes. The fridge works as good as new. Thanks a ton!

4 screws in the freezer and the back panel came off then 2 more screws to take the motor off. I unpluged the old motor pluged in the new motor put the back panel back on and I was done.

Repair was a no brainer. More important, Part Select was extremely efficient. Customer Service was very helpful as my model number was not available on line. Thanks for your wonderful and prompt service. Rich L.

first I ordered parts that didn't work. the return process was painless and I found the part I needed, which just popped right in!

Remove the top screws, with a Philips screw driver, take broken piece out. Then remove the plastic cover on bottom of handle, take the torx screw out. Now handle is off.Put new handle in place and put all three screws back in. Then install new plastic cap, and you are all done.

Despite attempts to quiet the 2 year old fan, I went ahead and replaced it. Part Select was prompt with a new one at my door less than 24 hours. It was just the fan motor, so took a couple extra steps to place it in the metal housing, but no problems and though the frig still makes noises, it's not coming from the fan as before.

Followed the instructions on the repair video and it made very easy. Also saved us a lot of money. Thanks for your help.

I used pliers to pull lightly on the head of the switch, while I inserted a small flat head screw driver into the base of switch and gently worked around the edges to free it from the panel.

First I removed the two screws, the fan and unpluged the electrical connection. Then, plugged in the new part and then screw it back together.

Took back out of freezer compartment, pulled plug and removed old motor, inserted new parts. It was
easy and the parts arrived the day after I ordered
online, even though I chose the cheapest shipping
option. Nothing in my freezer had a chance to thaw
out.

Parts Select made this an effortless process. From finding the part, ordering, to the online diagrams.

I'll be back...

Unscrewed the top and bottom screws took handle off and installed new onel.

I haven’t received the wheel yet. Originally ordered on Dec. 13. Hadn’t received it by Dec. 20. Finally shipped on Dec. 22. Tracking said it was expected to be delivered on Jan.2. Not delivered. Then it said it was still on its way but it was unknown when it would be delivered. Still waiting on Jan. 6. By far the most expensive economy shipping ever, as this refrigerator is in a rental that can’t be rented until a wheel is installed.

The replacement was installed without difficulty and very quickly. I used a Philips and Torex screwdrivers. It only took a few minutes to accomplish. However, The design of the replacement handle is identical to the original's. So, it too has the same weak point. It is just as likely to break in the same spot as the original did. Also, this was the second replacement part that I had to order and pay for before I received the needed correct part. The first part that I incorrectly ordered and received was a clear plastic inner door. Was confused because this part was not pictured on the G E website showing replacement parts for this refrigerator. Both parts orders were received very quickly, even though I used normal shipping..

The part was delivered promptly. Then, to quote Raymond from Georgia:
I pulled the old one out, and put the new one in.
