Frige and freezer door not closing correctly
The refrigerator and freezer doors no longer close by them selves. There are a mating set of cam type guides on the bottom hinge of each door. They are designed to give the door some momentum toward the closed position when the door is part way open. The repair was very simple. Doors are heavy, but manageable. The part shipped over the holiday weekend, but arrived very quickly considering.

Refrigerator Cam & Thimble Ff Closing Cam - Black Hinge Cam Riser

Refrigerator wouldn't close on it's own
The Hinge Cam Riser had broken (small plastic part) and needed replaced. Once I had the part it took all of 5 minutes to repair, I emptied all the contents on the door, removed the plastic cover on the top hinge, removed the 2 5/16 nuts holding the hinge then removed the door. I placed the new Hinge Cam Riser on the bottom pin then replaced the door. Works great!

Frost build up on coils
Removed shelves and light bulb. Undid the two screws on the back panel with nut driver. Snipped the two wire leads to the defrost thermostat. ( orange and pink wires) Carefully removed the defrost thermostat from the coil. Stripped both ends of the wire leads about a half inch and onnected with two wire nuts. Then wrapped with electrical tape to seal from moisture. Carefully attached defrost thermostat to coil. Screwed the back panel back on. Reinstalled light bulb and shelves. And plugged refrigerator back in. Works like a charm. Saved close to 100.00 dollars doing repair myself.

failed light switch
I started removing the switch by prying on the right side with a screwdriver, when it emerged enough I used pliers to finish removing it. I then unpluged rhe wires from the bad switch and pluged them on the new switch and "poped" it into the hole.

Freezer going into defrost too long & re-freezing items
I was intimidated by this repair(as I am with most repairs), because there were 2 possible problems. But being able to purchase both parts for $30 (including shipping) made it worth a try. Thanks to the instructional videos that were sent, the repair was much easier than I anticipated. For me, the hardest part was fitting my shoulders in the narrow freezer. Now the appliance works like a charm. This would have been a $150-$200 repair had I called a company to do it.
