Light in the refrigerator didn't work
I did exactly as the video showed. I popped out the old switch, disconnected the two terminals, connected the new switch and put it back. The light now works! The refrigerator is over 25 years old and the switch works! What a great website this is. Couldn't of done the job without Partselect's help.

Both light bulbs had been replaced, but lights did not turn on.
I tried to remove the old light switch using a putty knife and a hammer. It was hard to compress the plastic tabs to pull it back through the hole, but all of a sudden, the lights came on. I guess banging on the switch freed-up the contacts. The new switch is now a spare part in case I need it.

Broke the arm off the food compartment rocker switch
After receiving the new part almost immediately,using two screw drivers, removed the broken switch from the plastic frame. Be careful not to scratch or otherwise tear the plastic...very pliable. Since the original switch was factory installed and the wires were packed in fiberglass insulation, the switch came out but the wires and clips were still in place and could not reach the new switch. It was necessary to pull them down with bent long nose pliers...used a lot of "pull" but the wires held up.Connected the switch, turned the power on and there was light! Reports from other users really took the uncertainty out of the task.

Small plastic parts in door broke years ago.
After thinking it would be impossible to find the parts I needed to fix my old refrigerator I found PartSelect.com. I was surprised that not only did they carry the parts but all were in stock. The actual repair was as easy as the ordering. For the shelf retainer bars and end caps I just put the ends on the bars and snapped it into the door. Care should be taken not to try to bend the end caps too much to insert into the door or they will break at the inside of the bar. They are only thin plastic. I actually bought two spares for future if needed. For the crisper drawer shelf support I used my 1/4" nut driver and removed the piece of the old support with the screw and installed the new one. Do not over tighten the screw or you might a: strip the hole out the sheet metal screw goes in or b: damage the new support or both.

Light switch which turns on the lights when the door opens went out
This is an easy fix, simply remove and replace. What I was impressed with is that a how to video was provided along with my part. I wish all manufactures would offer this, the video was easy to understand and you had a good view of the operation. Thanks, a job well done.
