Ice maker not making ice
Pulled unit away from wall and shut off water and unplugged unit. Installed water valve and reassembled, plugged back in and turned on water and checked for leaks. All good. However there is no water getting into the ice maker. The unit itself is going thru a cycle of attempting to make ice and the bail is moving and you can hear the solenoid activate but no water. I have tried to blow thru the tube going to the maker but it seems to be plugged by something. I do not know if there is another valve up there or how to clean it out. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

the gear was stripped on the old ice maker and had to be replaced
was very easy. just ordered a new ice maker which was delivered in a few days. The installation was so simple. Just plugged the new ice maker in and hung the unit on the 2 screws. And then tightened the screws with a 1/4 in nut driver.

The new motor mount screw holes were not threaded.
I had to tap the screw holes with a 8/32 tap so that the screws would not bind.

Freezer door sagging due to warped hinge
Just block the door up so it doesn't fall off, remove the two screws, replace hinge, and replace screws. My wife could have done it. Metal replacement part is much better than the original plastic that warped from day one.

shelf gliders were broken.
This repair was very simple. I removed the old glass shelf and slid the new one in. I then slid the lunchmeat drawer into place. It looks wonderful and the drawer slides nicely in and out.

Replacement shelf
Removed old shelf and installed new one. Glass is thinner than what came with the fridge. So I rearranged the shelves and use the new shelf for lighter items. I could see the shelf bow in the center under the weight of milk, cool aid and juice.

The plastic guide broke loose from the bottom side of the shelf unit.
I removed the shelf unit and glued the broken end of the drawer guide back into place, then after drying, I reinstalled the unit. 10 days later,(1 day after receiving the order) the other end of the same glide broke and I installed the New unit.

Original plastic hinge cracked across the middle
Removed 2 hex screws & old hinge, placed new hinge on cabinet & found that it didn't fit; one hole was about 1/8" off. Had to drill a new hole in cabinet top in order to attach new hinge. Hinge works fine now. I'm glad to find the hinge is metal; original one was plastic.
