Keep searches simple. Use keywords, e.g. "leaking", "pump", "broken" or "fit".
Mounting bracket did not fit. Retainer for water input looked like a thread protector.
Put bracket on workbench and hit two or three times with hammer. Glad I did not remove water inlet retainer from part, it can very easily be mistaken for a thread protector.

Door Shelf Falling Out due to Broken Bar End Caps
I pryed the old end caps off the bar with pliers being careful not to bend the metal retaining tab on the bar. The new bar end caps snapped right on the bar and the new end caps / bar assembly snapped right into the slot on the door. Very Easy Repair.

switch wouldn't come out anymore and turn light on
Gently pry out switch in door jam with screwdriver and pull both connectors off and put connectors on new switch then push switch back into the hole. Looked it up on the internet and video showed how to and also had link to new part, ordered and less than a week later the fridge is bright again. I have an older freezer also and it seems that they all use the same switches. Very Very easy
