Door won't close and freezer frosted up
First My Frig side of the double door unit wasn't closing on its own. Kids don't look, so they walk away...next thing you know the frig warms up and the freezer starts to frost up from running so long...Now it won't shut off.... I checked the hinge and sure enough it was wore down. Now mind you, I ordered a hinge kit first without checking to see what type I needed...don't do that...Less than 15 mins you can take the door off and see which one you need.As soon as I saw which type of hinge set I needed I went and ordered it...returned the other one. It came pretty quick.... 15 mins had that sucker changed and working... But... the door still wouldn't close on its own... Common sense told me the heat from the frosted freezer caused the door and frig walls to swell... Yes I said the heat... When the component in the freezer frosts up it does not keep the frig cool, nor will the freezer stay kool... the frost prevents the cool air from moving around...thus "HEAT".... It took a full 24 hrs for my frig n freezer to get back to normal... and now the door closes just fine... MIND YOU! I had to take the covers off the freezer unit inside, then take a steamer and melt all that frost off of every inch including down the drain... That took me a good 5-6 hours... and what a mess.... but it was worth my time.... because I don't have to replace my second hand Jenn-Air which I could never afford to buy brand new.... Whew....what we have to do to keep things going... $11 bucks worth of parts.... "Super Mom" :o)

Rim of ice bucket broke off and was cracked
1.Lift out the ice bucket. 2.Remove two screws at bottom. 3. Remove front (made up from parts 20 and 21 in diagram by lifting the plastic flanges at the bottom and sliding it off upwards. Fingers were adequate to lift the flanges. 4. Remove the mechanism. It comes right out. 5. Slide the mechanism into the new bucket. 6. Put the front onto the new bucket by sliding down and lifting the flanges over the ridge at the bottom of the bucket. 7. Put the two screws in at the bottom. 8. Slide the bucket back into the freezer. This was the easiest repair I have ever done.

Moved into a new apartment and this part was missing from the refrigerator so the bottom crisper was not functional.
Was a very tight fitting part and it had to be gently tapped into place.

Ice Chute Door broke off causing frost to build up around the chute
Repair was super easy. Assembled each piece as shown on sheet. Removed the drip tray and 2 hex nuts. Either get someone to hold the panel or, what I did was rest it on a step ladder. Inside you have to remove 3 more hex nuts--pull out the plastic housing and and snap the chute door in place lining up the three notches. Put everything back together and no more frost (or flies or gnats either, for that matter!).

The original drawer was broken
Short story: excellent experience. Long story: The original drawer broke, probably because it was overloaded during the years of use. I found the part number very easily on parselect.com. Just followed the instructions on the web site. Got the replacement very quickly, and it was broken in the box. Called PartSelect and they sent my another replacement immediately. No need to send back the broken one, no extra cost, no question asked. I got the new part in a few days. This time they took the time of carefully placing the original box in another larger package with plenty of shock-absorbing material. Changed it in no time. The service was excellent, the person who took my call was extremely nice and efficient. I strongly recommend PartSelect.
