Light switch wasn't working.. As I would close the door I would notice our frig light wasn't going off...
I simply removed the old switch by gently pulling down on the old switch with a screwdriver. When it was about half way out I just gently pulled down on the old switch and it popped out... I removed the two connectors attached to the old switch by pulling on the connectors with a pliers...I tried using my fingers but wasn't able to pull the connectors off so I used pliers. It worked perfectly.. When pulling off the old connectors, make sure you attach the new switch to the same tabs on the new switch... It was very easy to do and took under 5 mins.....The light switch works perfect....P.S. You should unplug the frig while making the connection just in case....Safety first....!!!

Basic model refrigerator does not have snack tray included
This is a very basic model refrigerator and the only model we could purchase when our machine failed suddenly. The new unit works just fine, but we really missed the snack storage of the higher level units. I ordered the parts for the next higher model Whirlpool side by side refrigerator and installed them without incident. They new snack drawer is a little difficult to snap into place, but it fits perfectly and we certainly appreciated the extra snack drawer on our basic model.

broken light switch in the freezer
We removed the old switch, unplugged it, plugged the new one in and it was easy to do. But when we tried to put the switch back in we had a very hard time doing it. Eventually got it in, but if it had not been for the difficulty we had getting the new switch to snap in to place, it would have taken under 5 minutes.

The door would not stay closed after it was installed. It was as if there were no magnets in the gasket.
We used the hair blow dryer to soften the gasket after being in the package. We laid it on our bed and made the gasket straight with the heat of the blow dryer. Then we began to install the gasket and once we installed it, the door would not stay closed.

There was no water in the icemaker tray to freeze into ice cubes
Took off the rear cardboard cover, unscrewed the old valve, checked to see if there was enough tubing to fit if I cut the tubing. removed the 2 electric connectors, Cut the tubing 3, installed the 2 electric plugs, inserted the 3 tubes, mounted the new valve, replaced the cardboard cover. I checked for leaks, and very soon heard the valve filling the icemaker tray, and soon, Ice cubes again.

ice will not dispense ice from storage bin to out the door. Auger does not turn
Replaced motor it was not issue. Now I am stuck with a $300 motor I cannot return. When I say will not dispense ice everyone thinks it does not make ice. Auger does not turn to push ice out the door. Reason I thought it was auger motor when you push lever on door the auger turns about one eight of a turn. So, it would seem it is getting signal and power. Cannot find any articles on this specific issue. If anyone has a suggestion, please share.
