Pieces of plastic had broken off the door handle
Replacement was extraordinarily easy. It took about 5 minutes, including the time to find my tools and put them away after I was done. As others have warned, only the handle itself was shipped. The trickiest part was being careful not to break the little plastic cover at the bottom of the handle when I pried it off. Apparently a screwdriver under any edge would have worked okay. There were three Phillips-head screws (replacements were not included in the package!) - and that was it.

freezer and refrigerator compartments not cold enough
Used the suggested problem list here to narrow down that the repair was most likely the run capacitor. Poped the new one in and I now have better control of my compartment ranges. I have a temperature gauge in each compartment. Check them every opening of the doors.

Light rocker switch broke and refrigerator light couldn't go on.
I just popped out the old switch with a flat head screwdriver. Removed the connections and then installed new switch by reversing steps. Popped in back in and the light went on.

Motor noise while running and clicking when shutting off
The instruction sheet supplied with the new motor described the steps to take very good. Replaced the rubber grommets for the three motor mounts also. A flashlight or light source was needed or was very helpful.

I took the glass shelf out of box and slid it right in. It took a matter of 5 seconds to put it in and it fits like it was never replaced.

The old door handle had cracked and was about to snap off the door.
I removed the old door handle with a screwdriver and simply replaced it with the new door handle. I put the "Amana" name plate from the old door handle into the new one. Took less than 15 minutes. Very, very pleased. Plus the ivory color matches pretty well with a refrigerator that is more than 15 years "young". :)
