One front roller was flat on one side. Decided to replace all rollers at same time. Placed shims under unit and removed mounting screws for one front and one rear roller. With new rollers in place, I was able to level the refrigerator side to side, but unable to do so, front to back. Left the new front roller in place and reinstalled ... Read more the old rear roller. Have decided to replace refrigeratorin the near future. This is one of my few repair failures!

I just went on line and identified the drawer cover and ordered a new one that was too expensive in my opinion.

I pulled out the old one and installed the new shelf and then inserted the two drawers.

Took out old pieces and popped new ones in, just like that!

I took out the old socket by moving a clip. Reattached the electrical wires, clicked in the socket and that was it.

pryed out old stub of stud with the tip of a flat head screw driver. It really did not want to come out because of the metal wings on the side of the stud.

I watched the repair video and did exactly as described. Excellent video and step by step instructions. Follow them and you cannot go wrong.

watched your instructions

I read a previous entry that stated the stud needed to be twisted out, which was very useful. I was bit worried at first when I removed the broken one and a bit of the insulation came out and it seemed mangled inside, but twisting the new one in worked. It is in there firm and strong, good as original.

just as the installation video show (very helpful) however the sheath tube that was pulled off of the old capillary tube did not go back on the new tube near as easy as the video showed. Got it on however and refrigerator is working like a champ now

I follow the video From The Tech Guy ( Gentleman ). Thank you... Best Regards .Fco

Followed the video instructions.

Removed the ice brucket,
Removed the light shield by releasing one screw using a nutdriver.
Replacing the bulb and reinstalled the light shield.
