Replace two broken Door Shelf Retainer Bar End Caps
To get the broken end cap off of the retainer bar, hold the retainer bar still and pull the broken end cap straight off on a line that is parallel with the retainer bar, and with a little tugging. Might even have to tap the end cap lightly. Slide the new cap back on to the retainer bar and then put the end cap back into the door slot by putting the bottom of the end cap into the slot first by tilting the upper part back a little, then pushing down on the end cap to get it down into the slot far enough to let the upper part go in. Then adjust the end cap up slightly to cause it to snap into place.

Unit would freeze then defrost but not go back into freezing again untill I moved the thermostat
Turn off power .Remove the control knobs and pry off the front panel ,it just snaps on,Take out two screws holding the control panel Take out the two screws holding the control to the base of the panel to get at the two screws holding the control to the bracket. Ther are screws holding the covers over the thermostat tube. Then pull out the tubbe and remove the plastic cover on the old control and place it on the new control tube. Then route the new tube into the snaps be careful to not make ant sharp bends in tubing.When that is done fasten the control to the bracket and fasten the bracket to the panel.Replace covers over tube to hide it and keep from damaging it when putting things in fridge.. Mount the conrol bracket back to the fridge and replace snap on cover. Plug in electric.

Our refrigerator failed to cool in stages, finally quitting to cool or run.
First, after re-reading your descriptions here on your site ( it took clues from each of them) I unplugged the refrigerator and began on the only day my husband was out of town. The two selector knobs came off easily fingers only. The plate came off with only a slight prying with a screwdriver (it is intended to snap off this way). Loosening the screws and removing them in order to remember which order they returned proved to be a challenge. After disassembly, pulling the thermostat out of the tubing and replacing it with the new one without bending it was hard to do also. The refrigerator runs like new, and may run another eleven years! Thanks!

Refrigerator door wouldn't close on it's own anymore
All I had to do was remove the screws at the top of the refrigerator door that hold the top hinge and once that was done I lifted up on the door and it came off. I then flipped the door upside down and was able to replace the door cam on the door and the other cam on the bottom hinge of the refrigerator. Once replaced, I put the door back on and put the screws back in on the top hinge of the refrigerator door. Works great now!

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
