Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do I know if I need the left or right side panel?
A: Stand facing your refrigerator door. If the control panel is on the left side of the door opening, you need the left-side panel (this part). If it's on the right side, you need part 289064260 instead. Check your existing panel's part number to confirm.
Q: Will this panel work if my refrigerator doesn't have AES functionality?
A: No. This AES4 panel is specifically designed for refrigerators with Automatic Energy Selection capability. If your refrigerator has manual mode selection only, you'll need a different control panel. Verify your refrigerator model supports AES operation before ordering.
Q: What tools do I need to replace this control panel?
A: Installation typically requires a Phillips screwdriver to remove the old panel and secure the new one. The panel connects via plug-in wiring harness, so no wire cutting or electrical work is needed. Always disconnect power to the refrigerator before beginning any repair work.
Q: My panel display is dim but still works. Do I need to replace it?
A: A dim display often indicates the panel is beginning to fail and may stop working completely soon. While it may still function temporarily, replacing it now prevents being without refrigeration during a trip. Dimming displays typically worsen over time and cannot be repaired.
