The Crisper Drawer Glass Shelf slid out of the frame while being cleaned and shattered.
The repair didn't require any tools at all. Just simply slide the new glass shelf carefully into the the frame and while holding it horizontally slide the frame back into the rails. This took less than a minute to accomplish. Very satisfied with the results.

Glass shattered
Don't ever tell your 11 year old to clean the refridgerator. Something will almost definetly get broken like the glass shelf, but luckily I had parts select which in no time assisted me to find the exact part. I ordered the part, it came quickly and I replaced within seconds.
Thanks.

Refrigerator was trying to cycle compressor on, but each time the compressor started, it would stop due to the thermo breaker would open. The fans continued to run, so I figured it was starter relay.
Moved the refrig. out, removed the four screws that held the lower access panel in place. Disconnected the power cord. Removed the retainer clip wire and pulled the relays from the compressor socket. Separated the relays and installed the secondary relay on the new starter relay. Reinstalled the starter relay assembly into the compressor socket. Plugged the power cord in and listened for the compressor to cycle on. It cycled on and continued to run. Turned the power off and reinstalled the retainer clip wire. Reinstalled the access panel and plugged the power back in and left the refrig. run overnight. Checked temperature and also started the ice maker. Everything was normal by morning.

Compressor would not start.
After earlier determing that the starter switch was at fault, I removed the cardboard lower back panel, shut off water to the ice maker, removed water line. The plug to the compressor containing the switch and capacitor was held on by a spring clip, removed clip pulled wires from old switch (Here needle nose pliars are handy as the spade clips on the 2 wires have their own locking clips) replaced switch and all wiring, tested unit and problem solved.

Freezer just quit. Flipped rocker switch to refridgerate and refridge worked. So I ordered the Freezer control which is called "Electronic Control".
This is a convertible. You can use it as a freezer or a refrigerator. I was using it as a freezer when it suddenly quit. We have been getting some power surges lately so I guess that's what caused the malfunction. Went online and found the part I thought would fix it. (Since my part wouldn't even light up and the other control would). When the part came in 3 days later, I removed the bottom crisper bins and the glass shelf above them. Plus I removed the next shelf to allow room to remove the back panel. I also removed the shelf supports. Using a power driver I removed all the screws holding the back panel in place. Then un- clipped the wiring harness going to the controls. Then removed the bad controller. Replaced with new part and clipped back together the wire harness. Plugged unit in and set rocker switch to freeze.The unit came on and new part lit up and allowed me to adjust the temp numbers. I set it to 4. Been working great since.

Squealing noise and bottom half of freezer only froze
I removed the shelves, unscrewed the cover panel of the fan motor and regulator dial, disconnected the fan motor from power, unscrewed 2 screws holding the motor to the mounting bracket and put the new motor in it's place. New motor had no thread in the mounting holes, so I put new tread in so I could use the 2 screws. Another option would have been to drill all the way through the mounting holes and use longer screws or bolts. Of course I turned the power off before I started repairs. Freezer runs like new now. Technicians wanted $400 for the job, while it cost me a mere $55 for the Motor.

My sons climb in the fridge
My sons climb in the fridge to get stuff on higher shelves. In their climbing they broke the support for the crisper cover. I guess they were not made to support the weight of small children. Any way I ordered the part and when it arrived I unscrewed the old screws and screwed on the new support and put the crisper cover back on. I then told my wife how hard I worked to fix her fridge but of course I got no thanks.

Broken door shelf bin
Opened the box, snapped it in place. Took longer to just open the box! I carefully inspected the part and compared to the original. I could not tell them apart. The fit and finish is perfect. This is a very well made product. Easy to order, fast shipping, well packaged and very easy to install.
