Motor noise while running and clicking when shutting off
The instruction sheet supplied with the new motor described the steps to take very good. Replaced the rubber grommets for the three motor mounts also. A flashlight or light source was needed or was very helpful.

Ice maker stopped making ice.
This was really easy to do thanks to comments posted on the Partselect web site and the instructions included in the package. I removed three screws, unplugged the wire harness using a small screw driver to "unlock" the harness, removed the old ice maker assembly from the freezer, and reversed the process with the new assembly. Saved the valve and other parts for future use. The new unit started making ice within an hour or two. Very cool!

Condenser Fan Failure
Partition between Freezer and Fridge was running very hot. (Warm is normal). Oiling fan did not work. The only problems encountered in the replacement were getting fan out and in through coolant lines, cut plug off to accomodate generic fan wiring, getting the screws back in without cooking your hand on a hot compressor. Unit works great!

Two of the parts were broken so the shelf was laying on the drawers so neither could be used effectivly
Pulled out the stud with a wire cutter and replaced it with the exact part you shipped in the kit.
The other 2 parts just slipped on the brackets
Nice thing is now I have extra parts for the other shelf.

Poor design leaves fitting vulnerable to damage. Part was broken when pushed to close to the wall.
Simply removed the old and replaced with the new part.

One of the door shelf end caps broke
I removed the broken end cap and then I snapped the metal shelf onto both end caps and replaced the shelf.
I really must say that dealing with PartSelect was exceptional. It took about three days for me to get the part and, prior to that, it was very easy for this sidewalk fixer to locate the correct part on their website. Thank you for your excellent service.

Movers broke the icemaker water fill tube shoving my refrigerator through the front door.
I unscrewed the fill tube screws from the back of the fridge, and pulled the tube out.
Then I put the new tube in, screwed the screws back in and reconnected the waterline.

Handle broke at the top and needed to replace. Fairly easy job.
Just removed two screws at the top and then had to put the white cap piece onto the handle and attach it to the refrigerator with the two screws.

Ice-maker would not make ice.
Took three screws out of the old ice-maker, disconnected the electric pigtail in the freezer, shut the water off, removed two mounting screws on the water valve (back & bottom of fridge), used a wrench to remove the water lines.
Put new valve on, reattached water lines, connected electric pigtail to ice-maker, put 3 screws back in to mount ice-maker, turned the water on and had ice in about 6 hours.
VERY EASY - All the parts for various installation were included and the instructions are easy to follow.
