Clicking sound then within a minute clicking again, not cooling.
UNPLUG REFRIGERATOR. Carefully remove relay from the side of the compressor. You shouldn't need a tool to do this, if it is hard you can gently pry the edge with a flat head screw driver just to loosen. Unplug white and red wires from relay, noting that the white wire goes in the hole with a #2 stamped beside it. Shake old relay, if it rattles like a baby rattler then it's most likely the problem. Replace wires into the new relay and plug back into the compressor.

The freezer was going into alarm
We loosened all the screws around the door and slid out the old gasket.
We then slid the new gasket behind the panel and screwed the screws back in place.

The end caps of the door shelf bracket broke
Put the end caps on the ends of the shelf bracket and returned the bracket to the proper place in the freezer.
Just wanted to add that the service and helpfulness to get this part for a freezer that is close to 30 years old was super. After almost 30 years, this was the first thing to go wrong with this freezer. We did not expect to be able to find this little part for repair but thanks to fantastic help, our freezer is in good shape again. Thank you !

Stopped working, cooling.
I used a small screwdriver to disconnect wires from old starter. I connected the overload and starter, two wires. I put the unit back in the keeper, plugged the unit in, turned up the thermostat and it's working beautifully.

Erratic light.
Simple switch repair: Unplug fridge, pull down to remove switch assembly, slip contacts off. Reverse with replacement switch. HOWEVER, check first to see if the bulb filament might be broken, as this could cause the same symptom. OR in my case, the light socket connection was the culprit. Check that too before ordering a replacement switch.

Freezer developing ice inside
hardest part was to remove deformities using a hair dryer. Working with hand after heating seemed to work but was not quick.
Loosen screws under old gasket. Screws hold gasket lip under the edge of the door liner. Remove old gasket. As door liner was brittle from age, I used silicone caulk across top of door behind flange, set lip of gasket in silicone and tighten screws. Did top and half was down the side, then did the bottom up, taking ank excess gasket and trying to distribute along straight side. Make sure door is plum and square on hinges, then close door. Turned freezer on and allow to cool to see if ice would form, before refilling with food.

Replace upright freezer door gasket.
The easiest way to replace this gasket is to remove the door from the freezer. Two bolts remove the top hinge and the door pops off. Setting it on sawhorses makes the job easy. In addition, I moved the door into the sunlight which made the gasket flexible and easy to work with.
Remove the screws under the gasket with a phillips screwdriver and lift the inner panel off the door. Clean the area when the gasket sits, put the new gasket in place and replace the inner panel and all the screws.

While defrosting freezer tossed the drain plug with ice and water into the sewer system.
Opened mailer and bag and place the drain plug into the drain. fit perfectly. In fact it is better than the one lost since the original needed a screwdriver or tool to remove the plug. This one has a flang or finger turner on it so that it can be removed. Also, does not interfere with items in bottom of freezer.

Light burned out on the door lid
Used a thin screwdriver to lift out the burned out light assembly. Unplugged the old light unit and installed the new one. Plugged in the freezer and the light worked. Easy as pie.
