the upper drive lug broke on the ice maker
I removed the ice bin and on the bottom of it I removed 1 screw. I put the washer and drive lug on and reattached the screw. It was so simple I thought I surely left something off. It has worked fine since.

Door Light switch cracked Mounting
I noticed that the refrigerator was having trouble maintaining temperature. Thought it might be time for new one until I found out that a new frig was $5k to $7K. Just happened to notice that the light switch didn't look quite right (was not sitting sqaure to the door). Once I pressed it it came loose. I then realized the the lights were staying on (50 watts of heating). Replaced the switch and the frig started working like new.

Internal light did not come on each time the door was opened.
After disconnecting the electricity. I followed the instructions as indicated in the "HOW TO" article on the website. I used a steel putty knife and pried the light switch out of its retaining hole. I worked the right side the most since this is the side with the retaining clip. After I removed the switch I transferred the two electrical outlets to the new switch and easily snapped it into place. Engaged the electric power and tested the switch.

light staying on
A very cold and brittle switch in a 17 year old fridge. Used screwdrivers to pry out with some resistance Had to cut the molded plug in half and split wires, because replacement contacts were farther apart than the original. End result, works great.

Broken light switch
Part was easy to order, delivered quickly, installation very easy. Just unplug the unit, pop out the old swich using a screwdriver, disconnect and reconnect leads and pop switch back in. Definitely recommend that you can do it too.

ice cubes were all stuck together
First I lifted the ice bucket out of the refrigerator, the broken coupling fell out in three pieces. I ordered a new coupling {$14 including shipping) It arrived 4 days later. I removed the phillips screw and installed the new coupling along with the flat washer that had fallen out. The repair took 5 minutes and saved a lot of money.

Ice dispenser stopped dispensing
The ice dispenser stopped turning for crushed/cubed ice out the chute. Turned out it was this little $10 metal coupling part that broke apart. I'm guessing its not an unusual problem because the partSelect part was redesigned to be thicker than the original part to help prevent it from happening. I was very impressed with the superiour quality of the replacement part.

A small part broke that dispensed ice out the door
Removed the screw at the base of the ice bin unit. Replaced the coupling that had broken teeth and screwed in the new one. Was very simple. With service call with part near $150 the repair was made for less than $20.
