Rattling Noise from behind frig

Initially, I traced the noise down to the evaporator motor area. I thought it was the fan blade so I ordered and changed it. Noise level better but still not good. Then I ivestigated problem area again. Removed the motor,discoverd that the motor shaft was loose /drifting which caused the "hummm" and uneven fan blade rotation. Orderd and installed new motor and all is good.

Frige and freezer not cooling

I should have ordered start kit instead of start capacitor. The start cap astir did not fix problem so I ordered kit. Compasator comes as part of kit. Followed enclosed instructions. Cut existing wires and reconnected new wiring. Simple as that. It's a plug in item. Now worried it may be working to good. Freezer down to 10 deg. Watching to see if compressor is running to long. Seems ok lol. Wife hates me now. She wanted new frige.

Evap coil was solid ice, fridge was 64 degrees.

Exactly as the video showed, except I had to take the evap coil cover off and use a hair dryer to thaw it out. It was still frosting up too much, so I ordered the thermostat as well. Both were really easy, once i saw the location of the defrost timer and the thermostat. Thanks for the great site, prices that put the big store to shame, and the good video too!

Refrigerator section warm

My husband watched the video on your website and found it very easy to do the repair. The repair company that diagnosed the problem wanted $210 to do it. The part I ordered was under $20, and after he installed it the refrigerator has been working great. We would highly recommend your site to anyone who needs to fix anything!
