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!!!

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.

Switch stops working
Replace with new switch. this is the third switch i have replaced in 10 years. the only part, besides a light bulb, that has gone bad. obviously this is a problem with this model for Kenmore, or just poor switch design.

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.
