Cam riser broke so door was staying open
Best for 2 people on this repair as 1 person needs to hold the door and the other position the bottom pin in place on reassembly. On my side by side I was replacing the cam on the cold food side, not the freezer. But I got down and inspected both the broken cam and the cam on the side that wasn't broken to understand how the parts fit together. Each door has 2 cams that work/fit together. So be sure the one you are replacing is installed properly (flat side towards the door body). Remove all contents from inside door including the shelves. Use a phillips screwdriver to remove the cover plate on the top hinge. Use tape or a marker to mark on the refrigerator top a corner of where the bracket is positioned, for proper placement on reassembly. While someone is holding the door, remove the 2 bolts from the top bracket (or the back one is just loosened so bracket can be moved out of the way). Lift door off the bottom pin. Turn the door on its side to expose the bottom bracket. There should be 2 bolts here. The furthest one from the pin only needs to be loosened. The other bolt will need to be removed but as you do this be sure to not let the other 2 metal pieces fall out. Remove the broken cam and replace with the new part. Realign the parts and bracket over the pin rod hole and tighten both bolts. Replace the door onto the bottom pin. Then add top bracket and align it to the marking and screw back in these 2 bolts. Test door for any needed adjustments (I had none). Then replace the top bracket cover with its screw. Voila! Clean the shelves and put them in the door and fill them up. :-)

Drawer side rails broken
With normal wear and tear over the course of ten years both of the side rails for the VC were broken. One side I successfully glued together with super glue and it has lasted more than a year. The other side kept breaking so I ordered a replacement part. Very easy installation just removed two screws (save them you will need them) and then put in the new part. Customer Service rep had no idea if the part I needed for the CSX20BA was the same as what I presume is the newer model with a longer ID code. She suggested I call GE. Not wanting to spend any more time on the phone I took a gamble and indeed it is the identical part.

Fridge cam broke, door barely closed and crooked
I followed your terrific video. I first got all tools ready, covered a table in cardboard, and removed food from the fridge door. I removed the cap and screws on top of the door hinge. Lifting the door off was simple, and after laying the door on the table, the retaining screw was easily loosened, and the cam screw removed. The only problem was that half the thin gasket under the broken cam was missing. No new gasket came with the part. I wanted the new cam to lay flat, so I made a partial gasket from a matchbook cover and filled the gap. It all went back together quickly. Just have tools ready beforehand. Ten minute job, unless you have to make a new gasket or part of one. Thanks, guys.

The rails were broke on both sides from age and use.
It was a piece of cake. I just unscrewed two screws on each rail and screwed the new ones on. Fast and easy. Also I would like to add that your parts web page was easier to get through then the GE page. Thanks will order from you again. Kim
