Refrigerator and freezer too warm
1) This is a built-in refrigerator with the compressor, coils, etc. at the top. Turn off the breaker to the fridge. 2) Remove the front panel off the top (just push up and pull out). 3) Removed 2 screws to the old timer and carefully remove the plug. Plug the new timer in and screw in. 4) Since our fridge was heavily frosted up, we moved everything to another refrigerator and coolers and kept the refrigerator off until all panels were room temperature. 5) If you haven't cleaned the coil in a while, vacuum it with a soft brush attachment. 6) Turned back on and the refrigerator is cooler than ever!

failed light switch
I started removing the switch by prying on the right side with a screwdriver, when it emerged enough I used pliers to finish removing it. I then unpluged rhe wires from the bad switch and pluged them on the new switch and "poped" it into the hole.

The beyond cheap GE handle broke on our rental unit GE refrigerator after less than six months
The new handle just took three screws matching our model refrigerator perfectly--and it is much sturdier than the original. We originally went to the GE site and they wanted $70 +shipping for the same handle. Our landlord only paid $500 for this fridge six months ago--brand new! For a total of just under $17 we got a new handle in perfect condition--delivered quickly to our door. It was exactly as described and fit our model perfectly. We couldn't be happier and will tell all of our friends about this wonderful site. Thank you!!

switch wouldn't come out anymore and turn light on
Gently pry out switch in door jam with screwdriver and pull both connectors off and put connectors on new switch then push switch back into the hole. Looked it up on the internet and video showed how to and also had link to new part, ordered and less than a week later the fridge is bright again. I have an older freezer also and it seems that they all use the same switches. Very Very easy

In my rental house, something had happened to one of the freezer shelves by the previous tenants. It left only one shelf to use so I ordered a freezer door shelf which is basically a bar to hold things on the molded shelf. Without it, the shelf was unusable.
All I had to do was snap in the shelf. Done! Now the tenants have an extra shelf to use in the freezer.

Sides of old shelf cracked
Pulled out old shelf and put in new one. However the new shelf is too narrow and will break at some point just like the old one. Apparently no way to fix this issue.

Missing a Shelf Guard on freezer door
Simply "popped" the guard into place...a very basic fix. Thank you so much for your customer service (the lady who waited on me was awesome, shipping was super fast, and it was the "Correct" part)...singularly, one of the best transactions I have had in a very long time...kudos to you. Definitely will use your site again.
