freezer was warm
Top freezer took off the panel in freezer and melted the ice around coils and found the defrost thermostat and replaced with the new one. Just followed the instructions from your video on line. Freezer works just fine now. Refrigerator is 38 years old.

The original fan motor began masking a noise and finally stoped working.
Followed video instruction and completed the replacement. I had to join the wires since the connector was a male plug to a make plug.

Freezer wasn't cooling - compressor not engaging
Ordered the Capacitor and the Thermostat Control. Parts were received in a matter of a few days, easy to install, but did not fix the problem. Had to call a repairman to fix the problem (compressor relay - this part not available to order for this model number with Parts Select). Will continue to use Parts Select in the future for other parts, but not happy that the actual part I needed was not available - had to use other methods.

Freezer door shelf would not contain items
A very simple repair. The end caps pop out easily with maybe a little help from a screwdriver blade on the underside and the new ones snap into place after assembling the end caps and the rail as a unit. The OEM end caps have a small design flaw which allow them to loosen over time. This flaw is corrected by the replacements from you folks. The real success story is how quick you responded to provide the parts even though this was not a major outage. Great service folks!

The rack was broken and the meat drawer would fall down when pulled out. Had to use one hand to steady drawer while selecting meat/cheese.
Just like the very helpful video. Took the drawer out. Lifted the glass cover out. Took 2 screws out and extracted broken rail. Placed the new rail in with 2 screws. Voila! Easy-peasy.

Ice maker stopped producing Ice.
After determining the ice maker was getting water but not harvesting the ice, I ordered a replacement Ice Maker. Installation was easy. One electrical connection and two screws. Following the video to make sure I did not miss any steps I had ice in just a few hours. Just in time for a July heat wave!

first fresh food too hot, then freezer too hot
Based on the website I decided it was most probably the defrost timer, and that was correct. I ordered it, watched the video, and two days later the part was at my door. Took the nut driver, removed 4 screws, then removed the old defrost timer, installed the new one, re-installed the whole plastic assembly with the four screws, and done!!! Couldn't have been easier.
