Freezer work refierator compartment is warm
Defrost timer is hidden in the control panel in the refrigerator top middle. Turn to off and remove two screws which are hidden behind white tabs. I had to pry the old timer from the plug with a screw driver because it was tight. Try not to short across the terminals. Plug in the new timer. Replace it in the clip where you got old one and reinstall the controls. The freezer was still all frosted up so I had to remove the cover and defrost it with a hair dryer to get it to work. Then I turned it on and it works great.

Defrost Timer - 120V 60Hz

Bad switch for door prevented interior light from coming on
Just as your video described, although due to the age of the fridge, it took a bit longer to remove the defective switch. Your video made this so simple, I can't imagine why we lived with a dark fridge for so long! I was ready to buy a whole new fridge, as repairmen are often nonexistent for small repairs. I am the biggest fan of your company & it's repair video. THANK YOU SO MUCH

The ice maker did not make any ice cubes
I pulled the Refrig out of the space so that I could get to the plug and water shut off. After unplugging and turning the water off, I had to remove the 7 screws holding the cardboard cover over the bottom portion of the Refrig. I then had to unloosen the water input to the the valve. Then I removed the screw holding the Water Valve. I then had to unplug the unit from the electrical connectors. After that I had to cut the plastic hoses off the valve. All that was left was to reconnect everything, replace the cardboard covering and do an operational test. Everything worked. The ice maker began to produce ice cubes and there were no leaks.

Frezzer would freeze up, refrigerator stayed cold, solved the problem. Now the refrigerator seems to be running more than usual.
Checked the defroster coil which is located behind the rear panel in the freezer compartment, it was still working. Followed the schematics down to the defrost timer, which is located in the lower front of the refrigerator and tried that. Plugged in the new part and the problem is solved.
