Lost the arm
I have never used the ice maker because I have a well and didn't want to usewell water to make ice. I usually make ice with bottled water.
I decided to try making ice with gravity fed water from a converted water fountain placed on a higher level than the refrigerator, locater in my garage next to the kitchen.
When I looked at the rear of the frig. I saw a copper pipe (on the bottom of the frig.) that lead to a valve, with a plastic tube that went to the freezer. I didn't think that the gravity fed water could go down to the bottom and return to the freezer at the top, so I cut the plastic tube, and fed the water directly to the ice maker.
I only put a small amount of water in my water source because I wasn't shure what would happen. The water filled the tray and the rest of the water went to the container that catches the ice.
I did get one tray of ice. I later found that the valve that the copper pipe went to, has a 7 minute timer that only allows a small amount of water to pass.
My next effort will be to connect to the copper pipe and see if it will allow the gravity fed water to rise to the ice maker. Wish me luck

Broken guide on tray bin
Not much to say. To much weight (maybe?) in drawer and overzealous kids. I have replaced it once before and all I had to do was remove the drawer, put in the new one. Fit great and was back in business. I do have to say that when I've ordered parts here before, I have been real happy with the quick service. A+ for getting it to me quick!

The shefl support in the freezer had broken
Ordered parts from Parts Select. They were here like overnight!! Unreal. Supports just slipped in. Absolutely easy. This was my first order ever from Part Select but have a feeling it won't be my last. Parts were here so fast I did not know what had arrived until I opened the package as I had not expected them so quickly! very satisfied.

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.

Plastic door closure was broken
The DIY video was very handy and precise to every visual detail needed for anyone to do their very own repair. It doesn't get any better than that.

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.

Light switch was broken off.
Purchased the new light switch, used a butter knife to pop the old one out, used the pliers to pull the wires off the metal tabs, replaced the new one with no problem. Took about under 1 minute. Lights are now all working.

Broken light switch
Used the butter knife to pry the old switch out, it is a snap in switch so there is a small keeper on the bottom that needs to be pushed in to pop the switch out. Un hooked wires by pulling them off of the terminals (won't shock you) and put them on the new switch and popped it in
