Accessing the components in the 26" Deep Side-by-Side Refrigerator/Freezer is generally quite similar
to other typical Whirlpool units.
COMPONENT COMPARTMENT
Components located in the component compartment are assembled on a slide out tray at the bottom
of the unit. The compressor, condenser, condenser fan and water valves are located in this area.
Accessing the Component Compartment
To gain access to these components the compartment cover must be removed and the tray slid out.
(Fig. 13)
1. Remove the seven (7) hex-head screws securing the compartment cover to the cabinet.
2. Remove the eight (8) screws securing the heat exchanger cover to the back of the unit.
3. Remove the double water valve from its mounting bracket by releasing the retainer clip and
sliding the valve assembly out of the bracket.
4. Remove the hex-head screw securing the filter-drier bracket to the right side of the cabinet
and push the filter-drier gently out of the way of the slide out tray mounting screw.
5. Remove the two (2) hex-head screws securing the slide out tray to the lower cabinet frame
rail.
6. Carefully slide the tray out from the unit.
NOTE: Be sure none of the tubing is excessively bent or kinked while pulling the tray out.
