Freezer not cooling due to icing up of coil.
The timer in this older unit is clearly exposed at the back of the freezer underneath the freezer compartment. It is attached with two Phillips head screws. After the screws are removed, the timer can be unplugged and the new one plugged in. The new timer has an extra flange to allow it to be used on more than one model of freezer. In order to mount the timer in this unit, you have to remove the extra flange by carefully cutting it away from the timer body, in similar fashion to what's depicted in the online video. This will allow you to mount the new timer to the mounting plate using the two screws from the old timer.

Needed a left hand hinge
The left swing hinge (297283901) that i needed is not available anywhere so I bought the right swing hinge (297283900), used a hydraulic press to pop out the pin and move it to the other hole. After that it was real quick to remove the screws and change out the hinge, changing the swing of the door. It is easiest to remove the top hinge and door first when doing this.

Door alarm going off indicating door ajar
This did not fix the problem. Call a repairman and he cannot come until 9/11. Food is staying frozen. Alarm sounds for awhile and then shuts off for a bit.

Fridge door handle broke off, replaced it.
Very simple - removed the plates that cover the end of the handel, then removed the screws and the broken handle. There were four screws - did a top one, then a bottom one, then the other top and bottom one. Made sure they were on tight and put the covers back on. Really proud of myself!

Using the socket wrench, I removed the old element from the oven wall attached by two hexagonal screws. I then removed the electrical attachment to the oven using a Philips head screw driver. Replaced the element with the new one and reversed the process. The oven works like new!
