A broken siphon break elbow
Partselect made the repair process incredibly easy by linking a how-to video that explained exactly what to do. Without the video, I was trying to take the whole washer apart, but the video noted a convenient opening that provided easy access.
This is my second experience with Partselect, and I am definitely a fan. How you can maintain a stockpile of parts for so many appliances (as well as providing installation guidance for at least some items) is remarkable. Thanks.

Right side of freezer door handle broke
This is the older model of the Samsung refrigerator, so there is **no Allen screw underneath the handle** to remove it. That was a change made on newer models.
To replace the broken freezer handle cap:
1. **Remove the gray top cover.** Slide the gray cover forward, then lift it up and off.
2. **Remove the two Phillips screws** underneath the cover.
3. **Remove the front tabs.** Gently pry the front of the tabs forward. Using needle-nose pliers, carefully pull the tabs out.
4. **Remove the broken cap.** Once the tabs are removed, the broken cap can be taken off.
5. **Remove the handle from the old cap.** In my case, the handle had broken away from the old cap. There are two Phillips screws securing the handle to the cap. Remove those screws and separate the handle from the old cap.
6. **Reuse the silver hinge pin.** Before discarding the old cap, remove the silver rod/hinge pin by sliding it out. You will reuse this pin in the new cap. If necessary, apply a small amount of light lubricant to help it slide out and back in.
7. **Attach the handle to the new cap.** Use the two Phillips screws to attach your existing freezer handle to the new cap.
8. **Install the new cap and handle.** Position the new cap and handle assembly on the freezer door. This part is a little fiddly, so be patient and make sure everything is properly aligned before tightening anything.
9. **Reinstall the two tabs.** Put the tabs back into position and secure them with the two Phillips screws.
10. **Replace the gray cover.** Snap the gray cover back over the new cap.
That's it. The key difference with this older Samsung model is that **you do not remove the handle with an Allen screw**. The handle is secured to the cap with two Phillips screws, and the silver hinge pin from the original cap is reused in the replacement cap.

Freezer handle had broken free from the left side of the door.
On both sides of the door there is a pop off cover that houses the broken mechanism. I popped off the cover and exposed the screws the attached the handle to the opening mechanism. removing those screws I removed the handle from the freezer door. I replaced the broken plastic piece on the handle . Reattached the repaired handle assembly to the door with the 4 screws. Reinstalled the cover.
