Freezer worked, refrigerator didn't. Ice build up on coils.
Unplugged refrigerator. Emptied freezer and removed ice maker and cover, need to unplug fan. Defrosted coils with hot water. Cut wires to thermostat as close to it ad possible to leave extra wire in case of an error. Stripped wire in new thermostat and put in shrink plastic then the wire crimp connector joining both light blue wires making sure wires were in before crimping them. Repeated with other dark blue wire. After used the heat gun to shrink the protective white tubing. The only thing i found not satisfying was tge tubing. It was too wide and too small. When i shrunk it did not cover the whole connector and was loose. I had to use a glue gun to cover both ends of each wire connector. Hope this helps other users.

Refrigerator wasn't getting cold
removed the back panel of the freezer and unplugged the connector for the Motor. Removed the air diffuser, then removed the fan blade. Removed the 2 screws holding the motor to the bracket. Disconnected the old wire harness and installed the new one. Put the fan blade onto the new motor and installed the motor onto the bracket. Put the air diffuser back on, plugged the motor back in and fastened the back panel. Plugged the refrigerator into the outlet and tested, OK!

The slide rail(Drawer Support Rail) I found was made very cheaply. None the less I had to replace it. I did watch the Repair tutorial on your site that made the repair a snap. Ezpeeze!
Removed the shelf and one screw on the back of the rail. Replaced rail and screw. Re-inserted the drawer and it was done.

The glass shelf broke above the 2 drawers on the bottom
Just lay the new glass shelf into the groves. The shelf was too big and would not fit properly down into the groves.
