Frost in freezer, fridge not cold
From most posts I've read, the defrost timer was the culprit so I blindly ordered one. Easy install but did not fix the problem so I broke out the ohm meter. The only other 2 items it could be all tested good with my meter so I bypassed the defrost thermostat (per forum help...actually quite easy)and it defrosted fine, which told me I needed a new defrost thermostat. Installed fairly easy and problem gone.

The drawers in my refridgerator were breaking apart and no longer working properly.
I removed the drawer fronts from the old drawers and slid them onto the new drawers. My fridge is like new again and the repair was a lot less expensive than buying a new one. My drawers arrived the day after I ordered them!!

refrigerator shelf guard kept falling off, causing everything to come crashing down
Simply popped the new end caps into place with the old guard and now it is tight and secure. Easy Peasy. Of course all this is after the operator at PartSelect ordered the right part for me; I had ordered the freezer door end cap, not what I wanted. I received the correct part the very next morning. Returning the wrong part was a breeze too.

My Freezer Was Frosting Up, My Ice Maker Was Not Working ,And My Fridge Was Warm.
Had to remove all screws on rear back cover of freezer inside, unplugged refridgerator, uncliped thermostat, unpluged thermostat. Replaced thermostat with new one in the same location, and let defrost fulley. Reassembled, pluged in, and tested. All was good. But I did also replace timer at first part of the repair so I suggest you replace both at the same time.

drawers support glide were broken and the side of the upper storage drawer was cracked
Very simple. I removed 2 screw each holding the old drawer support glide and I replaced it with the new support( 3 minutes to replace using old screws )
To replace the drawer I removed the front part of the drawer(just pop out) and I attached to the new drawer(no tools needed).
Now It looks I have a new refrigerator.

The freezer was too warm. The fan was running: the diagnosis tool did not work!
I used the tool at Partselect that in theory allows diagnostic of the problem to be repaired. The result was that more tan 90% of the time with the introduced symptoms it had to be the thermostat. I order the part, got it quickly and installed. It did not fix the problem. So, be careful with the diagnostic tool, because it is just based on what most people buy when they have a particular problem. Videos for installation are great. If diagnosis was better, this would be fantastic. In my case there might be a different problem.

had to replace a broken plastic crisper drawer
I talked to a human who spoke english and was pleasant. She managed to work with me in a timely fashion to order the desired piece of Kenmore refrigeration equipment in less time than what iiwas trying to do myself on the internet. Her knowledge that was very valuable made this experience exceptional and memorable. However, the price to replace a crisper drawer is ridiculous.
The front piece had to be removed by slipping it off the broken drawer and then slipped back onto the front of the new crisper drawer. The bottom did not exactly go where it was designed to go so there remains a gap. I could use tools or forcably try and pry it into place so it is flush and pretty but the thought of breaking it sends my wallet into seizures.

Freezer fine, fridge too hot!
Removed the back panel in freezer compartment with the nut-driver. Then I cut off old thermostat connections, and spliced in new thermostat connections (repairman had already replaced defrost timer, and said not to trust connectors included on wires-they failed often). Then I snapped thermostat itself onto cooler coil. So far so good, fridge is running at 35-40 degrees a week later. Thanks Parts-Select!!!

Right side door was grinding on the spindal.
We took the door off and replaced the pastic washer. Found out that the repair people never informed us that the door itself has a bit damaged so this repair would have to be done over and over. Nice way for them to make money off us.
We were able to fix it so that it will last a LONG time. Sometimes it realy can pay to do-it-yourself!

Broken upper shelf and broken upper drawer
For the shelf you have to save the front and back gaurds to put on the new shelf when it arrives. You have to slide the shelf in through the slots and then add the back gaurd. The front guard just pops on after that. The drawer front of the old drawer just slides off and then back on the new drawer, The drawer just slides in after that. No tools needed. Super easy ... super beautiful. Love it!
