One of the light bulbs went out on my Whirlpool refrigerator.
I changed the bulb but it still didn’t work. I ordered a bulb holder and replaced it and it works properly now. It was an easy repair, remove the bulb, gently pry the bulb holder out with a screwdriver and snap the new one in.
It was useful that under the description of the part in the catalog, it showed that this part was often used to repair this issue. The service was great and the delivery was fast.

Refrigerator light would not stay on. Water dispenser would not dispense unless the refrigerator light was on.
My non mechanical husband used a flat edged screwdriver to pry out the broken switch. Then it was a matter of reconnecting to small wires and popping the switch back in place....voila, life has been great ever since. ;)

I had a loose fitting old condensor fan blade on my new motor.
I made a temporary repair by drilling the old blade plastic hub and put a small screw in it to hold it on to the shaft until the new blade arrived. The new blade came in within the two days I needed before Thanksgiving. I removed the old and pushed on the new. There were 8 screws on the back guard and two to hold the motor on. It was a snap.
Thank you PartSelect.com The wife is very, very happy now, we had 51 coming over for Thanksgiving. :)

Shattered glass shelf insert
Thank you for the prompt delivery. I thought it was going to be a big problem to get a replacement shelf, but I ordered online and had my part in 3 days! Very easy to insert. Did lay carton on the floor and pulled out the insert. At 83 my strength isn't what is used to be, but it came out pretty easy. I am beyond thrilled with the service. Thank you.

The vertical mullion rail went bad
I left this broken rail hang off my refrigerator for almost a year I finally decided to investigate the possibility of ordering the part on line. I found the part on line in minutes and when I received the part it literally took me 3 minutes to install.

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.
