My handle on the bottom right side of the freezer door came off,and how can I put it back on.

Many times the handle is slid on from one side or the other onto the screws. Try sliding the handle off by gently putting a screwdriver or putty knofe under the handle on the side that is still attached and pushing the handle sideways. This should remove the handle so you can remove the mounting screw and get it back on the door. then you can slide the door handle back on after getting the screw attached on the door again.

Under the bottom hinge, unbolt it, remove plastic plugs on other side of door, transfer hinges over and door handle, refit the lower one in new position, put plastic plugs in old holes

• I cannot confirm weather your fridge had reversible doors as you listed no model but the standard for fridges that can reverse the door swing are changed by doing this -

1. You will see little plastic covers on the opposite side where the hinges and handles are currently located now.
2. There are some little clips that hinge the screws on the top and bottom of each handle.
3. Remove these little covers with a small flathead screwdriver.
4. Now remove the screws holding the freezer and refrigerator handles on.
5. Now pop the screw hole covers on the side of the frig/freezer you will using.
6. Now place and fasten with screws the handles on the other side of the frig/freezer door.
7. Now remove the top freezer hinge first by removing the 3 screws on top.
8. Now pull up on the hinge (save the spacer).
9. Now pull up on the freezer door.
10. Now remove the screws on the middle hinge.
11. Now pull up and remove the middle hinge while holding the frig door steady (save the spacer).
12. Now pull up on the frig door and set to the side.
13. Now remove the screws on the bottom hinge (save the spacer).
14. Now put the screw hole covers you removed from the other side in the screw hole exposed from the screws you just removed.

• The switch

1. Start with the bottom hinge and place it on the opposite side (don't forget the spacer).
2. Place the frig door on the bottom hinge and the place the middle hinge in the hole at the top of the frig door.
3. Fasten the middle hinge.
4. Place freezer door on the middle hinge.
5. Put the freezer door in it's natural position to make putting the top hinge on possible.
6. Screw the top hinge in.
7. Job complete.

There should be one or more hex shaped keys within the door handle, usually on the side or bottom of the handle. Simply loosen them up and the handle should pop right off.

I have the same refrig. After taking the freezer basket hinges off, thinking I had to take the whole door a part to access the screws for the handle...my husband figured that the handle probably slides off...and yes that is just what it does!
Push the handle in a bit and then slide to the right. It takes a little bit of effort but that handle will come right off. Then you can tighten the screw that holds the clip in place. Then you line the handle back up to the clips, and slide to the left. Good Luck!

My dad's freezer handle is loose, model ABB2224DEW. Went to partselect.com and located drawing of freezer door parts. Found a link to a "do-it-yourselfer" that describes removal and replacement of the handle. Hopefully this helps.

Replacement of freezer door handle.
1. Removed freezer door handle. First I read the freezer door handle removal instructions in the Amana refrigerator user guide. Removing the handle requires inserting a plastic card at least 1.5 inches under the left end of the right side of the handle so it releases the butterfly clip latch on the freezer door. Next I pulled the right side of the handle to lift it away from the freezer door. Then still holding the handle away from the door, at the spot that is 1.5 inches from the inside of the right side of the handle, I held the plastic card vertically and slid one corner of it between the handle and the freezer door and worked the card down until it released the butterfly clip latch. Keeping the card at the same space under the handle so the latch was released, I then turned the card to the left until it was horizontal and was lifting the left end of the right door handle away from the freezer door. I then slid the handle across the card to the left until it cleared both door butterfly clip latches and it lifted off the door.
2. Installed freezer door handle. First I read the freezer door handle installation instructions in the Amana refrigerator user guide. The handle is curved on one edge and must be installed the curved side down. Correctly installed, the outside ends of the handle curve upward and the handle curve is down so it looks like a frowning mouth. Next holding the handle curved edge down, I turned it up so I could see the brackets and held it against the door. I lined up the handle brackets slightly to the left of the butterfly clips on the freezer door. Next I turned the handle with the brackets against the freezer door and slid it slightly to the right until the left side of the handle held onto the door butterfly clip by itself but was not latched. Then I lined up the right handle bracket with the right freezer door butterfly clip and carefully slid the whole handle to the right until I heard the left butterfly clip latch click. Next I slid the handle back slightly left once more and then slid it back to the right until I heard the right butterfly clip latch click.

Parts Used: HANDLE, DOOR (WHT) Level of difficulty: Difficult Time to do repair: 30 - 60 mins

There is a plastic card that you are supposed to slide under the right side of the handle. Once you have done this correctly the whole handle should slide off to the left.

yes take off handles remove center hinge between doors then top and bottom now put all on other side replace doors and handles Thank you

I had the same problem. It took me an hour to figure out that the bottom freezer handles clips onto the door using butterfly clips. To tighten the clips you have to remove the handle by sliding it to the right (or left??) It snaps right out with a quick **** exposing the clips underneath. A quick tightening of the clips and the handle snaps back in.

I had this problem with the bottom freezer door of my Amana.
What I did was slide off the entire door handle by applying pressure pushing toward the right to get the handle off. Once the handle was off, I slid the clip (which was still clipped on to the door) off and screwed it back on to the handle. Once the clip was tightly secured to the back side of the handle, I carefully slid the handle bar back on to the door by sliding it to the left back on to the door clips until it clicked securely back into place.
