Broken tab on Pantry Tray
First I removed the pantry shelf and all the shelving on the bottom half of the fridge. I used the nut driver to remove the RH pantry end cap. Very easy. I took a picture with my digital camera to make sure that I remembered how the assembly looked when puttin git back together. Very easy to do. Common sense repair.

measure! measure! measure!
With 2 babies and a chaotic household, i failed to double-check the measurements before I ordered the part. No fault of partselect, just user error ;-) I had to return the part bc i ordered the wrong size. Lesson learned, take my time and make sure it's done right the first time. The part fit in perfectly.
I used the search feature on the left side of the website to find the part, since the deli drawer wasn't in the parts diagrams given. The second time, customer service helped me find the part since the correct part wasn't on the website initially.
The deli drawer for this model is in the perfect place to have something dropped on it time and time again. I'm surprised you don't get more requests for this part to be replaced. It's bad design for Maytag to make it out of thin plastic.
Anyway, thanks so much for your patience in dealing with this frenzied mom! :-)

Broken hinge pin on the Chef's Pantry drawer cover
I removed the crisper drawers and glass shelf and set them aside. Used a nut driver (maybe 5/16") to unbolt the old endcap as well as the back piece which it was attached to. I had to study the damper system a bit so I could figure out how to put it back together, took some quick snaps with the digital camera to be sure I wouldn't flub it. I transferred all of the misc plastic bits which make up the damper system into the new endcap and bolted it back in.

broken hinge pin for deli drawer cover - replace end cap
First, turn off the refrigerator so the open door alarm doesn't drive you crazy while you are working with the refrigerator doors open! Then, remove both crisper drawers, remove deli drawer, remove deli cover from two pins (one was already broken), remove the bottom glass shelf and the plastic glass support. None of this requires any tools, all just slide or lift out. Then, using a nut driver remove the two screws holding the drawer slide from the pantry end cap. You access one of the screws from an opening while the slide is all the way in. This is where I needed needle nose pliers to remove the screw from the opening after it was unscrewed - if your nut driver is magnetic you won't need the pliers. To access the second screw, pull the slide all of the way out. Then you remove the broken end cap by unscrewing 3 screws with the nut driver. Once the screws are removed, you lift up on the front of the end cap to loosen it from a catch on the inside and then pull the end cap out. Install the new end cap by sliding the two tabs into the back of the refrigerator and then pushing down on the end cap to set it in the catch. Now replace the screws, re-attach the slide with the two screws, reinstall the glass and the drawers and then reinstall the drawer cover by slipping it into the pins on each side (be careful when depressing the pins, do it gently or they may break off). Turn the refrigerator back on. You are done These instructions make it sound much more difficult than it actually is, it takes as long to remove and replace the drawers and it does to do the actual installation of the end cap..

Hinge on snack drawer broken
First remove the snack drawer, glass shelf above it and other plastic pieces which just sit in place. Remove the three 1/4" screws that hold the end cap to the refrigerator liner. Lift up on the endcap and then out as there is a blind slot it slides into. Tilt the endcap out from the back and remove it. Remove the drawer glide from the endcap and transfer it to the new part. Reinstall the endcap by engaging the two plastic ends into the rear corner of the cabinet and then sliding it down on over the blind support. Install the three 1/4" head screws to secure the endcap to the liner. Reinstall the glass shelf and pantry drawer.

Broken hinge pin for the crisper.
Removed screws from the broken end cap and removed it. Installed the existing internal parts in the new end cap and reinstalled the screws. Very easy and the exploded diagrams on your site made it a very simple repair.

The endcap was broken and couldn't hold the pantry cover.
I had put off dealing with this repair thinking it would be too complicated and expensive. Was I fooled! I removed the vegetable drawers, shelf and pantry drawer. Then I removed two small bolts using a socket and power drill (very carefully). The entire piece just came right out. There's a small screw holding the air regulator onto the back wall of the refrigerator. This is all connected to the pantry cap, so it has to be removed as well. Once both pieces were out, I just carefully separated the air flow regulator from the borken end cap, attached the new piece, and then bolted/screwed everything back into place. Very easy and inexpensive!
