Refrigerator door would not close.
1. I removed the top door hinge.
2. I removed the door and laid it flat.
3. I replaced the cam attached to the bottom of the door. This was very easy.
4. I removed the bottom door hinge and had to remove the brad that held the second cam. This went well as I was able to saw it with a hacksaw.
5. Replaced the second cam with a bolt and nut.
6. Replaced the door and top hinge.
7. Remember to order two cams when you do this repair.

Door wouldn't close by itself. Cam part found on floor.
I removed two screws at the top of the door, lifted the door off. I got lucky: the broken cam was the one on the door (easy to remove), not the one on the body of the refrigerator (tough to remove).
There is a shim which was also broken - no way to know that ahead of time. I bent a 5/8" lock washer flat and it served acceptably as a shim.
It would be helpful if PartSelect.com could include with its listing of the cam, the fact that (1) the shim will probably be needed, and (2) there's a very good chance that you'll need TWO of the cams as well.

the auger was rusty, causing ice to have brown spots
Pay close attention to how you disassemble everything. You might even want to take a picture. I taped all the screws right where I unscrewed them, to make sure they were replaced in the right section. Also use the picture diagram that on the computer.

Fridge door was not self-closing
Followed step-by-step instructions in previous post. Note that there are TWO approaches, both of which work.
Option 1) Order TWO cams (PS297995), drill out the rivet holding the frame's cam, and replace it with a nut and bolt. (See post on 07/19/09.)
Option 2) Order the entire hinge assembly (PS290199), which includes the door's cam and an assembled frame hinge and cam. (See post on 10/29/08.)
We opted for Option 1 which was pretty easy. Option 2 would be even easier and take less time but costs about $9 more.
Thanks to previous posters for excellent instructions!

Old Cam Had Deteriorated, And Was Breaking Into Pieces And Falling Off.
We taped the door with 3 pieces of duct tape, then put boards under it. Used socket set to remove cam and then cut off rivet so we could just use a screw to keep in place. . . Just for your information, I ordered 2 cams, and was glad I did as I need 2 to make the repair. . . Didn't read about this online or on order recommendation. The cams go 1 up and 1 down thanks for the installation repair stories, it inspired us to "do it ourselves " and we saved about $75 to $100. 00

The light shield covering the bulb in the freezer cracked.
This was an extremely easy repair. The old light shield snapped out and the new one snapped in.

The auger was rusted with age and made the ice taste bad.
The disassembly and reassembly was straightforward but the parts diagram was very helpful to help you get it back together. Make sure you get the convexity of the clip that retains the clear plastic barrel to the auger pointing in the right direction. The metal plate that that comes out with the assembly seems to rust as fast as the auger, so you should just order that when you order the auger. I did not replace the plate so I cleaned it and painted it with epoxy paint before I reassembled.

slides were broken and draws cracked
Emptied the old draws and removed the old sliders. Took time to screw the new ones in. The draws are not as nice as the original ones.

broken cam riser on the bottom of the door
I ordered a cam riser for the refrigerator door. I watched the "how to" video the day I ordered the part. It took about a week to get the part, but I was ready when it arrived. The 'how to' video was a big help. It showed me how to take off the door and replace the part. The process was quite simple! Oh! Don't forget to turn the refrigerator on again!

Water resivour for drinking water developed crack
The replacement part came with a one page instruction sheet. Following those instructions I cut the two hoses on the old resivour and removed it. I then cut the hoses on the new resivour to desired length (all inside the refrigerator). Using the two couplers provided with the new resivour I hocked the two hoses together and tightened them with a wrench. It took longer to clean the refrigerator than it did to replace the part. Instruction sheet was very helpful
