Broken wheel on leveling roller
I removed one bolt and took out the old roller after first blocking up the fridge. Then I was puzzled for a moment because the hole in the new assembly was not tapped. But then I saw that the old bolt was a self tapping bolt. I used it to tap the hole then removed it and installed the new assembly. No sweat job.

Refrigerator door wouldn't close automatically
I removed the three small bolts (under cosmetic cap) located on the right top hand side of the refrigerator and pulled off the door. Replaced the top and bottom cams, put back on the door, screws and cap. Door works like new and the Wife loves it.
On a side note, don't be confused when ordering the top and bottom cam as they are both on the bottom of the door.

There is a catch on left side..
I don’t know if this is because of inner slider to adjust humidity but fits good enough. And the fridge is very old. Probably from 1980’s Slid new drawer in

Refrigerator door failed to stay closed
I followed the instructions as laid out in the video associated with this fix. Aside from the fact that the video covers the freezer side door, the fix was the exact same. The video was outstanding and covered exactly how conduct the repair. Incredibly easy to follow and to do and required minimal tools. Wonderfully simple experience that saved a potentially significant amount of money to hire an appliance repair person.

Refrigerator was missing crisper cover and drawer
Talked with customer service directly to make sure I was ordering the correct parts. Parts were shipped quickly, were an exact match and very easy to install. Just removed drawer above, screwed in shelf support, removed glass from cover, slid in cover, put glass back on cover and slid in both drawers.

The Light Socket Burned Out.
I pulled the socket out and unplugged the wires. I replaced the light socket by plugging in the wires and snapping the light socket into place. A very simple fix.
