Light out
Turned off the breaker to the fridge because I couldn't reach the power plug to unplug it . Use small flat head screwdriver to pop out the piece, disconnected the rubber prong connectors, inserted the new piece into the rubber prongs snapped it back into place. Flipped the breaker back on and prayed it worked. It did and I saved myself $120 service call.

Defroster fan burned up
First I removed the ice tray rack lifting it out of the way to reach the back cover of the fan. Then, the whole back inside panel had to be removed. Two screws removed the fan and bracket from the freezer unit. The missing bumper lid just snapped into place. Replaced everything in reverse order. Pretty easy job.

Fan motor making noise, compressor overheating
Simply followed the video -- VERY helpful... BUT: getting the bottom tab to re-insert into the holder after the motor was replaced was VERY difficult...!!! Until I discovered that I could move the refrigerant coil (upon which the tab mounts) just enough that I could get the tab inserted...!!! "Twas NOT as simple as it looked on the film...
Being able to move both the fan motor holder (with the tab) AND the coil made it happen, easily...

Replace Condenser Fan Motor
Attempted to remove whole bracket per PartSelect YouTube video. Our refrig must have been slightly older or something, because the bracket would not come out no matter how much we begged and pleaded. ~ So we replaced motor in place, which was a headache, but doable. Seems to work fine, and much quieter than the old motor.

The panel between the refrigerator and freezer was very hot. This was cause by inadequate airflow over the condenser coils.
Unplug the unit and pull away from wall. Remove the screws from the lower back panel. Locate the condenser fan motor and the bracket holding it in place. Unplug the wire clamp connecting the motor to the power supply. Remove the screw holding the bracket onto the condenser coil. Pull the entire assembly from the unit. Pull the fan off the old motor. Remove the motor bracket from the larger bracket. Replace the motor. Assemble again with the rubber grommets, motor bracket, and fan. Reinstall larger bracket, now with new motor, into the unit. Ensure the bracket prong is received into the coil bracket. If all aligns well, screw the bracket back onto the coil. Plug the new motor into the power supply. Temporarily plug in refrigerator to confirm motor functions. Unplug again and replace lower panel.

Refrigerator Crisper Drawer Shelf Frame
I removed the crisper drawers, the glass cover. Then I removed the Refrigerator Crisper Drawer Shelf Frame. It appeared to have a clip holding it in. I had to reach toward the back found the hinge and worked it loose. Removed it.
Then I just reversed the process. Put the new crisper drawer frame in, placed the glass cover on, replaced the crisper drawers.
The only negative part was the new crisper holder did not come with the sliding latch for the crispers that regulate humidity in the crispers.
I took them off the old one but so far, I have not been able to fit them.
I will try to get help to see if someone can help with that.

The light inside the oven had burned out
0. As a safety precaution, unplug the range or hit the relevant fuse breaker before you start. You might also want to grab a flashlight. Definitely do not try to do this while the oven is hot.
1. Pinch the wire over the light bulb cap to remove it. This is inside the oven at the back.
2. Pop off the hemispherical glass cap.
3. Unscrew the old light bulb, and screw the new light bulb in its place.
4. Put the cap back.
5. Secure the cap by putting the wire back in its slots on the cap.
No tools needed, the cap is just held in place with pressure from the wire.

Light would stay on when door closed
Extremely easy repair, the hardest part was getting the old switch out. I used a pair of needle nose pliers to squeeze the tabs in and it came right out.

this peice started braking off in small pieces
I used a steak knife and pried the broken piece off, lined up the plastic pins, gently tapped them down (with the knife handle) and stepped back and admired my work.
You web site made it easy to see I was ording the correct part. No guessing, ordering, returning and reordering to get the right part.
Thank You

Light Switch Not Working - Needed New Switch
Remove the top cover above the door by lifting it slightly and pulling forward. I used a mirror to make sure that there was nothing in the way of accessing the switch from above. I used a blade screwdriver to press against the switch retainer on the topside, while GENTLY prying from below with another blade screwdriver to get the switch dislodged. Once the retainer was past the opening, I wiggled the switch downward and then rotated it to the left when the rounded top right edge of the switch was visible. This allowed the wiring to the connector to pass thru the hole. I pushed the wiring from the top and pulled from below to get the connector below the opening for the switch. I then unplugged the switch, plugged in the new switch and reversed the removal process feeding the connector thru first then rotating the switch to the right to get the rounded edge of the switch thru the opening, then pressed the switch up into the opening until it snapped into place. Total time less than 10 minutes.
