Broken tab on ice chute door.
Just had to follow the easy to read instructions that came with the kit assembly. Only problem came when reinstalling the spring the recomended half a turn of tenison. seems like it was'nt enough tenison to completey close the door air tight. Would be much easier if the pictures where clearer and larger for older eyes to see.

very loud solenoid
removed the panel to get to icemaker(4 screws), then removed the plug, then removed worn solenoid and replaced with
new one. Had to jiggle old solenoid to get out,
but not with much effort. Everything went back
into place effortlessly

Ice maker would not work
Turned of power and water to unit. Removed water lines and electrical wires to old valves, tagged wires and hoses before removing. Cut old hose and installed new hose kit. Change from two water lines to one. Remove old valves and replace with new, reinstall water and electrical wires.Turn on water to check for leaks if there are no leaks turn power back on and check for water going to ice maker. A really easy repair.

Ice dispenser door broken
I removed the two screws from the front door panel, unhooked the wire, removed three more screws and removed the broken door. I replaced the door and replaced everything in reversed order. I did not need to replace the solenoid so I still have that if needed in the future, The instructions were so easy, it took less than 5 minutes and I estimate saving about $90.00 on a sevice call after deducting the cost of the part from PartSelect.
I will check out PartSelect for future repair jobs.
Thanks

the existing poly hose developed a leak in valve
The video was fantastic provided by Part Select. Only difference I found was the use of shark bite connections, instead of screw on nuts for the top two hoses. Shark bites have to be pressed and removal can be done, would be a good idea for the video.

ice dispenser lights were out. Would not dispense ice or water.
Removed 3 torx screws, used pliers to release control board clips and removed board. Unplugged old board and plugged in new board. Replaced cover and lights were back on.
Put cup under water dispenser and pushed for water. The control board immediately exploded and smoke came out. The board was burnt to a crisp just like the one I replaced.
Now I'm out over $200 bucks.

Fridge ice/water dispenser would not stop after releasing actuator pad.
Since I wasn't sure if it was the Actuator Pad or Limit Switch, I just ordered and replaced them by following both repair videos posted on Parts Select website. Videos are exactly correct and SPOT ON! It's a very simple job! BTW: My wife is actually kinda mad I fixed it, she wants new appliances. But I gotta tell ya, the repair parts and instructions on website are so available and thorough, I really can't get rid of them! Too easy to fix and keep. I've used this site to fix my fridge, oven, and dishwasher. This site is the BEST! They've saved me hundreds of dollars in repairs and broken parts showing me the correct way to take them apart! Thank you!!!

Clearing an ice jam resulted in a broken ice chute door
This is an easy repair and doesn't take hardly any time, once you can identify the electrical bridals to disconnect and the position of the new ice chute door interface point with the solenoid.
The supplied directions are complete but were quite a bit blurry. The more general dissasembly which is effectively 5 screws and two electrical bridals to remove/disconnect is straight forward. Pay particular attention to the mounting point of the ice door interface with the solenoid. I did it twice because I didn't align the door properly the first time:-)
Much too easy a job than to "call the guy."
