broken glass shelf
The "repair" itself was only a replacement of a glass shelf but I just wanted to say that I ordered this part mid-day wednesday and when I got home from work thursday night it was on my deck, I was shocked. Also it was glass and was very securely packaged Great job parts direct.

Freezer & fridge warm / condenser coils iced over
Problem not consistent. OK for 2-3 weeks, then freeze coils. Mark and observe the defrost timers manual rotating adjuster. Timer would stop mid cycle. One revolution equals 8 hours of compressor run time followed by 30 minutes of defrost. Replacing timer took 5 minutes.

Freezer was cold bit the refrigerator was warm.
Based on the diagnosis on this site I thought the 66% odds of the problem being the Defrost Timer looked pretty good, $30 including shipping versus a Sears tech phone estimate of $250-300. BINGO! Just follow the online installation instructions and don't forget to use the reset switch as described. Works like new! THANK YOU

I dropped the glass insert while cleaning it and it shattered in a million pieces
I went to the internet to find the replacement glass and shocked at some of the prices....I found PartSelect.com on a blog and the prices were nearly 50% less than the other suppliers. Unfortunately, I ordered the wrong part the first time and had to send it back but after speaking to a Customer Service Rep, I got the right part ordered, recieved it two days later and "voila"....fit perfectly....I so grateful to PartSelect.com for their assistance and the pricing is fabulous..

freezer frosted up and air could not circulate to the food section, causing the temperature to get warm, 55 degrees
I followed the procedure online and found the thermostat was ok, it had continuity when cold, and the heater coil was also ok, it too had continuity, therefore the problem was a bad defrost timer. the refrigerator works great, thanks parts select!

Needed to replace missing glass shelf
We bought our house and the lower glass shelf in our refrigerator was missing. We lived without the shelf for almost two years figuring it would be a pain to look up the part and replace it on an older fridge. Finding the part and ordering it with PartSelect.com only took me all of 5 mins. If I had known it was going to be that easy.. I would have done it two years ago!

The small tabs broke off in one of our many Miltary moves. For ten plus years I have not had the use of the door shelves.
This poor frig.(purchased in 1984) has gone thru five military moves. Somewhere along the line the plastic tabs to the door shelves broke, but I retained the metal bars. I hoped to find the required plastic ends to fix them and you had exactly what I needed. The repair was so fast and easy. The amount of pressure was a bit more than I originally thought was needed but they all went in perfectly.
