Refrigerator had not been cooling
Discovered the coil was covered with 1/2 inch of ice because defrost cycle had not been working. Replacing the defrost timer and melting ice with hair dryer fixed problem. Hooray!

Door handle was broken
It was extremely easy. I opened door, unscrewed the two (2) screws at the top of the door handle with a phillips screw driver. Once screws were out I rotated the handle to the left and unhooked it from the mounting block. The new handle was already equipped with a mounting block. I attached the new handles mounting block to the door and rotated the handle up and positioned the holes to the holes on the door. I used the same 2 screws from the old handle and tightened them into the handle and door. That was it. Very easy.

Fridge would not cool at all, because the compressor was not running. Fan running, lights working, just no cool.
Remove the cardboard access cover at the bottom back of the fridge. On the left side, locate the run capacitor. Remove it by prying it loose from its socket, after first removing the wire hold down clamp. One wonders why the clamp is there, which makes it difficult to get the run capacitor out. Be careful not to disrupt in any way the copper refrigerant tubes. If you mess them up, you will have wasted your time and effort trying to repair the machine. I was lucky, since a failed run capacitor is the problem only about 12% of the time, based on what I’ve read. Hallelujah! It was the problem with my fridge.

Door sagging, creating a gap to let in condensation
You tube is my best friend for DIY repair. I supported the door with wood blocks, removed the bottom bracket and was able to slide the refrigerator door down and out without removing the freezer door. Replaced both hinge bearings and door stop and washer on bottom hinge and slid the door back into place. Door is very light when empty. Fast and easy, door opens and closes smoothly and no problem with condensation anymore.

bottom handle on my Frigidaire refrigderator broke
Open door and use a screwdriver to remove screws. SAVE the screws because the new handles do not come with screws. Rotate broken handle to the left and slide the handle to the left which should slide the handle off of the screw protruding from fridge door. To install new handle, repeat this process in reverse. Rotate new handle up and screw onto fridge door.

Broken Refrigerator Door Handle
I simply loosened the screws holding the refrigerator door handle and then slid the bottom portion of the handle off from the screw holding it in place. The bottom portion of the handle did not exactly marry-up with door, showing a very small gap. I attributed this to the age of the appliance.

broken glass on top of crispers
Since the glass was broken and gone I just had to slide the new glass on top of the crispers. This was not really a repair, just an exchange of new for the old.
