Very weak water pressure from dispenser, hollow ice cubes
I diagnosed the problem by checking the water flow at the supply valve and hose by disconnecting the hose from the back of the fridge. Found the pressure to be adequate. I then reconnected the supply hose and removed the cardboard backing from the fridge and removed the nuts holding the water inlet valve to the chassis. I loosened the first hose that runs from the bottom of the valve and had my wife activate the valve by pushing the water switch on the front of the fridge. Water basically sputtered out of the valve and I decided that was where the problem was. I ordered the valve from partselect. When it arrived I thought it was the wrong part because it had push-fittings whereas my original valve was all thumb screws. I took a chance and one by one used a utility knife to cut the hose free of the old valve as close to the nut as possible. Connecting them to the new valve was a piece of cake! Just make sure the hose bottoms out when you push it in. I turned the water back on, no leaks! Plugged the fridge in and pushed it back to the wall. After a bit of air bled out I had a strong flow of wateragain like new! The next day the ice cubes were solid again! We use the filtered water so many times a day and had been so frustrated with the slow water flow we had considered donating the fridge and buying a new one; thanks to this easy fix we expect keep it for years to come!

Ice door flapper broke in half
I followed a video I found on how to take the front off of the ice dispenser ( to me the hardest part) Once I was in there it was a matter of removing the pin and spring,then putting the new flapper in place of the old. Hardest part in reassembling was getting the spring back where it belongs. After that it was a matter of putting the ice dispenser back together and testing. Works perfectly.

Broken crisper support and frame
Had a little trouble getting old pin out of support bracket finally used screwdriver and broke plastic so I could get to the pin and used needle nose pliers to remove hanger then came right out putting new one in was a snap slid in tapped pin in and installed new crisper bracket took about 15to 20 minutes to complete.Contribute difficulty in removing pin to age of refrigerator had been in place for at least 5 years maybe longer overall experience not bad.I am 75 would probably been easier for a younger man more flexible.

Water dripped from water dispenser after use
Pulled fridge away from wall and unplugged. Turned off main water supply feed and removed fitting from water inlet valve. Took off back panel by removing 3 screws. Took out 2 screws holding valve to fridge. Pulled off color coded wire clips. Unscrewed each water tube connector. New valve had quick connectors so had to snip off flared ends of tubing with utility knife. Pushed tubing firmly into new valve fittings and pulled to ensure connection. Reattached wiring and reattached valve to fridge with the 2 screws. Reconnected water feed line and turned on main water feed. Checked for leaks before replacing back panel. Done. No more dripping from water dispenser.

Crisper support broke
Had to pry the old one from the cabinet. Had to work remaining piece evenly as to not crack the cabinet of the fridge. Not the best design on Frigidaire's part but it was fixable. Thanks for stocking every part under the sun.

Rattling Noise from behind frig
Initially, I traced the noise down to the evaporator motor area. I thought it was the fan blade so I ordered and changed it. Noise level better but still not good. Then I ivestigated problem area again. Removed the motor,discoverd that the motor shaft was loose /drifting which caused the "hummm" and uneven fan blade rotation. Orderd and installed new motor and all is good.

Ice Maker stopped working
Realized Ice Maker was not getting water during it's cycle and suspected water valve based on other posts to this web site. My fridge is 9 years old and the tubes connecting the valve were plastic screw on type. The new valve did not have threads to accept the nuts. Turns out all I had to do was cut the nuts off and insert the water tubes into the valve which auto-locked the tubes to the valve. Ice maker now works great.
