I scratched the door handle while moving the refrigerator into my house.
With a small allen wrench, I was able to loosen the two screws to remove the door handle and replace the new on without any problems. A very simple operation.

fridge door switch did not work
I removed the switch housing (4 screws), replacing the switch in the housing was a snap. It took 5 minutes, cost $8 and light works like new!
Why didn't I order this part and do the repair earlier? Very simple.

The duel water valve began leaking
Plumber came to stop the water leak and told us it was a bad valve so I ordered the part - thank you Kate! - it was exactly what we needed. Disconnected the old valve (making note on the process) and installed the new valve in reverse process. Turned the water on and dispensed water and it leaked from one of the lines at connection. With the water turned off, my son again with pliers carefully pushed the tubing harder up into the valve and heard/felt it click into place and it has worked like a charm since. Good son and mom team.

Refrigerator was cold but bottom freezer was not cold enough to freeze bread or ice cream.
I had previously replaced the defrost timer and thermostat but the freezer was still not cold enough and was frosting up. After replacing the heater element I was disappointed that all the ice melted and the refrigerator was warming up. We were looking for a replacement appliance, but after the second day the freezer and refrigerator were working perfectly! It just took some time to cycle enough to catch up.

Bad Compressor Start Device and Capacitor
Followed Youtube video from Free Repair Help. Only problem was getting down low enough to see the pins on the Compressor to plug the replacement Compressor Start Device and Capacitor-could not replace the old clip to hold the unit to the Compressor like the old unit had. At 77 I just have a problem bending over.

After 19 years of use, both side glides of deli tray had cracked.
Just 2 screws on each side - took them out, installed new glides with existing screws.
Very easy - ended up giving the fridge a thorough cleaning - fridge cleans so easy and quickly.

The drawer glides were broke.
Couldn't have been easier. Took around 5 minutes. All you have to do is remove 4 Phillips head screws, put on new drawer glides, put the screws back in and your done.
