Broken Guide Rail
This site was awesome! I was able to very quickly look up my refrigerator model, find the proper part number, and order the part. The only suggestion I would make is to update the cut sheet with a more clear version, it was a little difficult to make out the part number because the scan/drawing was fuzzy, but I was still able to make it out. Got the part in the mail very quickly and it was super easy to remove the old rail and install the new one. Take out the screws from the old one, remove the old rail, line up the holes, install the new one, and put back the screws. It's so nice to have a site like this to fine parts and order them! Too cool! Thank you so much!

The ice tray had warped and dumped water, which then froze down through the ice bucket and below.
To replace the warped tray, I found the service manual (pg. 124 below) which took some interpreting.
Removed the lever. Then removed the assembly by two screws that are forward to the unit and go upwards.
The insulation, sensor, and sensor cover are simply pulled down and off and the unit separated to removed the tray, and then insert the new tray. Proceed in reverse. Takes only a few minutes.

Both guide rails had cracked at the front end I guess do to excessive weight in the drawer.

The rails for our cheese drawer broke
Just unscrew screws from old rails (still in refridgerator ), and screw them into new rails. We tried to order these parts from another online part site and we got the wrong parts. Partselect.com had drawing of our fridge and it was very easy to navigate through the web site. Thank you!

Two Door baskets were broken
We had two of the door baskets break and so we had no room in the frig. My husband and I were talking about maybe just replacing the frig. He said lets see if we can find the parts online. So we came to this site, found our parts, ordered. Received very fast and installed seconds. Saved money on buying a new frig.

Ice cubes did not drop out of tray when the ice maker cycled
1) Take out 3 screws from top of icemaker. 2) Unplug electrical connector from wiring harness. 3) Remove icemaker unit from freezer and then remove frozen cube sensor with clip and rear insulation. 4) With your hands pull cube tray motor out of the holding clips with the tray- if this is too difficult, spread bracket and only remove the tray from the unit. 5) Insert new tray into slots and install new or existing ice sensor, insulation, and sensor clip. 6) Reinstall icemaker unit to ceiling of freezer, don't forget to plug into wiring harness. 7) Turn unit on and make some ice!
