Glass shattered
Don't ever tell your 11 year old to clean the refridgerator. Something will almost definetly get broken like the glass shelf, but luckily I had parts select which in no time assisted me to find the exact part. I ordered the part, it came quickly and I replaced within seconds.
Thanks.
Thanks.

Lower handle broke.
Open refrigerator door to gain access to top door handle mounting screws. Remove two screws at top of the handle on the refrigerator door. Slide handle up to release the bottom mount. The handle is now removed. The bottom screw remains in the door. To install the handle slide the mount onto the bottom screw and check the fit. If the fit is loose screw it in clockwise and check the fit again. Adjust the screw until the bottom fits flush with the door face. Align the top two mounting screws and snug them up. Close the door and align the bottom handle with the top handle. Open the door and do a final tighten on the top two screws. Be careful not to over tighten because you can crack it.

Water Was Not Being Sent Up To Ice Maker
I removed a couple of screws from the old part, and inserted the new part. Replaced the screws and I was done. No problem. I'm an almost 60 year old woman, and fixed this myself. It was so easy.

Refrigerator section wasn't chilling
I pulled the old gasket off and thoroughly cleaned the entire refrigerator door, including the area where the gasket would pop into. Starting at the two upper corners, I pushed the corners into the ridge in the door and used my thumbs to press the gasket in along the top of the door. I then went about halfway down the door using my thumbs to push in the gasket. Then I pushed the lower corners in, taking my thumbs up either side of the door to finish installing that section then I pushed the bottom in, checking the lower corners to make sure they were secure. Then I closed the door and made sure the seal was secure on both sides of the door.

The original door gasket was in very bad condition due to neglect.
Easily removed the original door gasket starting at an upper corner by pulling the old gasket off completely. I then cleaned the area where the new gasket was to be pressed into the channel on the door of the fridge. I also cleaned the area on the fridge where the new gasket would seat upon completion of the installation.
With that completed, I began in the upper right corner of the door, easily pressing the new gasket into the channel on the fridge door. I then pressed the upper left hand corner of the gasket into place, into the channel on the door. I then pressed the entire upper horizontal part of the gasket into the channel along the top of the fridge door.
I then pressed the left and right vertical portions of the gasket into the channels on the fridge door. I then pressed the lower left corner of the gasket into place, followed by the lower right hand corner into place of the bottom channel of the door.
Lastly, I pressed the lower horizontal portion of the gasket completely into the channel of the bottom of the fridge door.
Finally, I rechecked all portions of the gasket to be sure they were securely fitted into the channel of the door.
Mission accomplished in less than 15 minutes. It's a piece of cake to make this repair!

Broken Plastic Frame On Glass Refrig Shelf
Removed shelf from packing, washed it, slid it onto the refrigerator shelf rails and done. Took longer to unpack the shelf than install it! Very easy, perfect fit, and very happy with the exact replacement. Super careful packing, quick shipping. Very good experience. Hope I don't need anymore parts, but if I do, I will definitely get them here.
