This website saved my marriage. For the past two years, every time we would open the fridge everything in the door shelves would fall all over the floor. This was not only embarassing when we would have family and friends over but I really got tired of my wife yelling every time she would open up the fridge. I tried every type of glue and repairs to try and fix it, finally gave up and thought the only way I would find peace at home was to purchase a new fridge. I accidently stumbled across your website and before I knew it and about $6 later my life improved more than you can imagine. The best part was how easy it was to find the part I needed with the detailed pictures you have. The part was shipped fast and very easy to install. I will definately use partselect again. Thanks!

Figured out You have to pop off the cocer than remove the 1/4 hex head screws only not the philips ones

Well the part and repair was so easy my wife did it and is very proud of herself

Took out the broken part and replaced with the new one..Simple enough and we had been living with a taped one for yrs...

Just replaced the old piece with the new. Simple and easy.

removed retaining bar removed and replaced end cap and reinstalled retaining bar.

Just like the video showed me.It still does not work. Have to turn it off and on to make it start up.I also replaced thermostat in freezer. Does not work.

Part # had been replaced with another timer. Original timer had 2 wires coming out of it. Replacement only had 1 wire. Instructions showed 2 options for where to place the wire. I chose option 2 and I guess I was right. Installation took less than 15 minutes and refridge is back to normal. (Quiet)

replaice the end caps with new ones. very easy. happy with partselect.com

I had to use a screw driver to spread the prongs enough to fit into the area to secure it. Very easy. The service was great , we recieved the part in 2 days

A little firm pressure snapped the new parts in place in the door so that the shelf could be replaced.

I put the end caps on the shelf bar and popped them into the slots on the refrigerator door. Very easy.
Good experience ordering from PartSelect. Glad I could make repair with minimal expense.
