Bottom door hinge was lost during move
I had lost the bottom hinge during a move and so I rigged the hinge using an old tv antenna and the door never really quite worked right and it was VERY annoying. I stumbled upon this site and was surprised how inexpensive the part I needed was. I was very impressed with the speed of shipping and the install took maybe 5 minutes. The fridge works as good as new. Thanks a ton!

Refrigerator light not working
1. Order replacement board so it's on hand.
2. Unplug appliance or turn off appropriate circuit breaker.
3. Remove all items on top shelf of refrigerator to allow yourself working room.
4. Remove one phillips head screw, at front of control panel bezel.
5. Allow bezel to hang down a little so you can disconnect multi-pin connector, by squeezing the tabs on opposite sides and pulling down. Note black dot on tab for easier orientation of replacement connector.
6. Gently pull the entire assembly forward to remove. It has two pins that align and hold the back of the assembly to the deck.
7. Place assembly on a table with the control board facing up.
8. Remove plastic push pin that holds protective cover over the control circuit board.
9. Remove temperature control knob by pulling straight out.
10. Push back 2 locking tabs at the front of the control circuit board so it will become loose.
11. Pry up cable tie mount that holds wire bundle to the assembly.
12. Free thermistor wire from it guides and flip over the assembly that is holding the sensor.
13. Peel up the tape holding the wire in the molded groove so wire/sensor can be removed. It is not necessary to remove the tape since you will use it again.
14. Remove the two wires that connect to the door switch at the front left of the assembly. It's a tight fit, but you can remove the spade connectors.
15. Now the circuit board assembly can be removed and set aside.
16. Optional - at this time you can use the continuity tester to verify the door switch is working properly.
17. Now install the new control board by reversing the removal steps.

Cristal fell and broke when cleaning at sink
Installation was super easy. I just removed first both drawers and then the base where the glass was installed, placed the new glass there carefully making sure that it fitted inside the gap to secure it and place everything back to the fridge the way it was. Presto!

refrigerator evaporator fan noise
Despite attempts to quiet the 2 year old fan, I went ahead and replaced it. Part Select was prompt with a new one at my door less than 24 hours. It was just the fan motor, so took a couple extra steps to place it in the metal housing, but no problems and though the frig still makes noises, it's not coming from the fan as before.

EVAP fan motor wore out, fan hits flange in back panel
Took back out of freezer compartment, pulled plug and removed old motor, inserted new parts. It was
easy and the parts arrived the day after I ordered
online, even though I chose the cheapest shipping
option. Nothing in my freezer had a chance to thaw
out.

There were two (2) shelves to be replaced the glass over the Food Fresh Bins, plastic encased glass shelf
On the move-in cleaning of the refrigerator I accidentally broke the glass encased shelf, and I don't believe there was a cover (glass or otherwise) in place that covered the Fresh Fruit and Vegetable bins. Wondering through the internet I found Part Select, ordered Parts 224 and 228. Installation really did take less than 30 minutes including, washing, drying, and placement of the two shelves. It's exactly what was needed. The refrigerator once again looks like a refrigerator with all the shelves in place. The customer service folks were more than helpful. All you need to do before placing the order is look at what you need to replace, write down the the model number, the serial number of your product part needed and chat with the customer service folks. All should go well. I'm happy.

Howling motor
Open freezer, remove rack....this got a little complicated because I had to remove the door, that required the offset screwdriver because I had a clearance issues preventing the door from opening all the way. Remove the panel covering the fan, unplug the fan, remove it from bracket, install new fan, plug in, replace panel, replace rack, replace door...bam all done!

The gasket on the refrigerator door was damaged
Removal of the original gasket was easy and required no tools. Based on compression in the shipping container, the new gasket was deformed. Using a shallow broiler pan, I brought water to a lite boil. The deformed gasket areas were placed in the water for approximately 10-seconds then placed in cool water. The new gasket came with specific instructions for this task. The instructions provided were easy to understand and accomplished the job
