Mounting bracket did not fit. Retainer for water input looked like a thread protector.
Put bracket on workbench and hit two or three times with hammer. Glad I did not remove water inlet retainer from part, it can very easily be mistaken for a thread protector.

Bad switch for door prevented interior light from coming on
Just as your video described, although due to the age of the fridge, it took a bit longer to remove the defective switch. Your video made this so simple, I can't imagine why we lived with a dark fridge for so long! I was ready to buy a whole new fridge, as repairmen are often nonexistent for small repairs. I am the biggest fan of your company & it's repair video. THANK YOU SO MUCH

Ice maker not working
First i shut the water valve off going to the fridge, I then removed the two screws that hold the element in place. I then pulled the element out about 3 inches and disconnected the two wires. Then i took the water line loose to the element, reverse the prosses and put all back on new element and installed,

This part broke for whatever reason, I do not know.
I needed a pliers to extract the shelf reatainer from its place in the door of the fridge.
I found the part in the partSelect catalog, ordered it, opened the box, and snapped the replacement part into place. I then popped the Shelf retainer back into place where it belonged.
Piece of cake.

Broken door shelf retainer
Just replace end cap and install. The beauty of this was the door was broken in the evening before July 4 when all retail had closed down early for the 4th weekend. I hit Part Select on the computer, scrolled down the partslist,looked at pictures and figured out from that the necessary piece I needed, hit the buy button and in less than 10 minutes had an order placed. July 7 UPS was at the door with the parts and my reefer was back in business. NO service call and no extra charges!!! Thank You, PartSelect!!!!

Light socket missing in refrigerator
Frig parts had been scavenged in an apartment complex. Restoring socket was only a matter of plugging in two spade contacts and clipping in socket.

Frezzer would freeze up, refrigerator stayed cold, solved the problem. Now the refrigerator seems to be running more than usual.
Checked the defroster coil which is located behind the rear panel in the freezer compartment, it was still working. Followed the schematics down to the defrost timer, which is located in the lower front of the refrigerator and tried that. Plugged in the new part and the problem is solved.
