The base table which holds the two drawers at the floor of the refrigerator was cracked.

I removed the old table, removed the glass, as the new part did not come with glass and removed the front side support. I simply installed both the glass and support on the new part and re-installed the parts.
Couldn't be more simple!!!

The switch became intermittent - Possibly a poor designe

Used a small screw driver inserted into the front of the switch (facing the front) and pried until the switch was coming out. When out, I removed the connect harness and replace the switch with a new one.

bad switch

The 2 minute or so video was not exactly matching the model that we had but the instructions were very good and important. The switch was a little difficult to get out from the side of the refrigerator.

Old tray was cracked and edge was breaking off

This is a mater of sliding the old tray out. Cleaning the tracks and sliding the new one in. I have had to replace the rollers on the previous drawer. But not this time. which that took approximately 20 minutes
Please note: while the drawer tray is out by cleaning the tracks it gets the little plastic particles off and makes the new one easier to slide. Really should be taken out and cleaned periodically so track and drawer slide easily anyway.

Lights didn't come on when door was opened

I have moderate to good mechanical skills, but getting the old switch out was a sizeable challenge. Since this switch suffered some damage during extraction, I was lucky to have ordered a new one to replace it. Reinstall took approximately 90 seconds. PartSelect saved me an expensive service call.
