Repaced the right-side door light switch
Killed the power to the fridge. Then, used a small, thin screwdriver to depress the clip on the bottom of the switch and wriggled the old switch out. The two wires easily came off the contacts with pliers. Connected the wires to the new switch and snapped it into the hole--clip facing down and contacts facing up. Turned the power back on and checked the switch. Worked perfectly! Easy job.

Leaking valve
The hardest part was to pull the refrigerator out. You Shut off the water line power and then take out the panel. Disconnect the water line and isolate and remove the part. and I have replaced these parts multiple times and it is very easy and a lot less expensive then a new fridge.

original ice bucket plastic slides onto rack broke and wouldn't support full ice load
On several occasions the ice bucket had fallen inches onto other frozen foods and the auger wouldn't work. After dealing with this several times over a period of several years, I decided to see if I could locate a replacement which I did through your company; We took the old one out, unsnapped parts and then snapped the new bucket to the gate and shazzam, we were able to slide the new bucket into place and it works like new. Hopefully a repair won't be necessary again!

Needed more shelf space in the refrigerator
This was not a repair but rather a decision to make use of the dead space in the refrigerator door by adding another bucket to the door and relocating the other buckets accordingly. This project worked out very well and increased the shelf space by 20%. . .

Plastic wheel in icemaker broke
I removed the ice tray from the freeze. Turn over and remove screws holding the face plate on. Remove the 4 screws holding the crushing mechanism in place. Pull the entire mechanism out and remove the nut holding the blades together. Remember the alignment of the blades. Remove blades and then the pastic crush wheel. Replace in reverse order. Very easy.

The ice bucket had a cracked track
I had to pull the old ice bucket out, remove the front cover and the ice churner from the old bucket. The churner had to be installed onto the new ice bucket, then the front cover had to be snapped back on to the front of the ice bucket. Finally, the new bucket was slid into place. The whole process was relatively easy for a non-mechanical person like me, with the help of detailed instructions that came with the unit. The on-line video was also helpful. I would recommend this company to friends.

Would not feed ice out of bucket
I removed the bucket and then took the feed screw out and replaced the end cap and reinstalled the feeder in the new bucket and put it back in place and it worked fine. This is not a hard job, you just have to pay attention to the dismantle so you can get every thing back together properly.
the breakdown and parts list was a big help.

The door switch was broken so the interior light would not come on.
The instructions in the package were not helpful. They wanted me to cut the wiring harness and described where to cut based on the wire colors. My wires were not the same color! I removed the light mechanism using a combination of a screwdriver, putty knife, and plain old muscle with my fingers! The wiring harness unplugged easily and the new one inserted. It was easy to push the whole assembly back into the door. I spent more time looking for something to cut the wiring harness with (and never did find it) than the whole job actually took without needing to cut anything!
