Freezer no freezing the food
Disconnect the power. To install the Defrost timer which is located inside the console at the top of the fridge I followed a YouTube video. It is very easy. Keep in mind that the Defrost timer comes settled in defrost mode so the compressor will not start after the power is reconnected.There is a hole in the console just behind the Defrost timer where you engaged it with a flat driver and rotate the clock until the compresor start. Now the compressor works for 6 hours and stop for 20 minutes for the defrosting cicle. The freezer now is freezing the meat!!
Parts Used:
Cold Control Thermostat Defrost Timer - 120V 60Hz

Refrigerator door was not sealing correctly.
Remove screws from lower hinge and carefully remove the door. In my case it was the lower bearing, flip door upside down being careful to remove anything which might fall off first. I removed the door stop and then pulled the broken bearing out with pliers. Then I pushed the new one in and reassembled it.

Warm fridge and freezer
After checking the capacitor and 3 in 1 starter run relay for continuity and both measuring , I was able to remove the old parts and install the new parts for the refrigerator after unplugging the unit. I also checked the new parts prior to installing. I also went on Parts Select and watched some very helpful videos. Thanks a lot for your help desk for going above and beyond to ensure that I ordered the correct part! ????

My refrigerator had a broken rail for the meat drawer and also the bottom door rack had cracked.
The parts for repair were delivered quickly and they were easy to install. The Door Rack just snaps into place and the Drawer Support Rail only required tightening one screw after install. All the parts arrived in perfect condition and now my refrigerator is back to being as good as new.

Matching up the mounting screw.
A single screw holds the part in place. The ONLY challenge is seating the new slide so that the screw hole in the glide matches the hole in the support assembly. Initially setting the glide into place mismatched by about 1/16 of an inch toward the back of the refrigerator. Firmly grasping the new part after mating it to the two receivers on the support assembly, pull it toward you until it clicks into place. The screw should mate cleanly to the new part without any difficulty. Make sure you get the right or left side part, as they are not interchangeable.

The slide rail(Drawer Support Rail) I found was made very cheaply. None the less I had to replace it. I did watch the Repair tutorial on your site that made the repair a snap. Ezpeeze!
Removed the shelf and one screw on the back of the rail. Replaced rail and screw. Re-inserted the drawer and it was done.
