Pushbutton light switch failed.
Needed a Phillips head screwdriver to remove bottom plate (kick panel). UNPLUGGED FREEZER. Removed plate pulled switch out through the mounting hole and unhooked the two electric wires. Placed wires on new switch, pushed wires back through the hole and seated the switch. Plugged in the freezer and opened the door - magic, the light came on. Replaced the front kick panel (hardest part was to line up the plate holes with the holes in the mounting bracket).

Freezer would only run sometimes by turning the thermostat to highest position fully clockwise. Sometimes turning it full CW wouldn't turn on. Once the freezer would run on highest setting, it seemed that it wouldn't shut off. I put a thermometer inside and would read -15deg when running. +15-20deg.
Replaced thermostat and it fixed the problem. Freezer comes on and turns off automatically and regulates internal temperature around 2-5 degrees.
The hardest part was extending the coiled probe tubing and forming it to fit into clamp without kinking it.

Defrost Timer
The old defrost timer started making a screeching noise (probably bearings going out). The replacement part was a cinch to install. When I initially spoke to a PartsSelect person, they said the part number I gave them was not consistent with my old '94 Tappan Freezer. They were able to still find the proper replacement part number. The video that was on-line helpful also.

I knockedoff the door light sensor when I dropped a frozen jug of ice
I removed the plate (recommend using a magnetic phillips head screw driver to remmove screws which are recessed). I removed the old part and pushed the new part through the hole and carefully reached in behindto attach the wires to the new part.

Freezer stopped, tripped circuit breaker
Freezer was not running, I reset circuit breaker and it immediately tripped. Noticed smoke coming from behind freezer. I pulled freezer away from the wall and visually checked the compressor and a black plastic box connected to the compressor (later found out the box is called a controller) I pulled the controller off the compressor and saw that it was burnt and melted. I ordered a controller from you, not knowing if that was the problem, but I took the $50.00 chance (cost of controller) I removed the old controller from the wires by sliding a small screwdriver along a slot in the plastic next to the wire and it released the wire, I did the same to the other wire and reconnected the wires to the new controller, observing what color went to what connector on the controller. Then I plugged the controller onto the compressor and reset the circuit breaker and plugged the freezer in bingo, it started right up and has been running now for over a week.

Freezer would not stop running and had frosted over
Pretty simple, take cover off back of freezer to access thermostat, unhook thermostat and replace with new one. It had wire hookups different from original part so had to look up that information. Turned out it did not matter which wire went on which prong.

No problems
It went exactly like your on line video. It took longer to defrost the freeze than it did to make the parts change out.
