I viewed the online video, which really is helpful.
Most of my "repair" time was defrosting the freezer coils (about 1 hour).
After removing the freezer shelves and access cover the thermostate and heater were in plain sight.
The heater is held in place with two phillips head screws and two wires that unplug (one on either side of heater).
The other tools came into play when removing and replacing the thermostate. Cut the two wires and strip for wire nuts, same with new thermostate. Wires color coded. I use electrical tape after appling wire nuts to seal the nuts.
I ordered a timer but found out, after research, that my model has the timer interagrated on the motherboard (main electrical board) (like in a home computer). So I returned the time for refund.
Super fast delivery of ordered parts. I ordered one evening, they arrived the next day.
