the refrigerator door was hard to close, and upon inspection I finally decided that the light switch was making the door hard to close.
I removed the door actuated light switch with my index finger and thumb on my right hand. I then removed the two wires from the switch. I noticed that the new switch had different look to it,I think Frigidaire must have had a problem with the original design of the switch. Reassembly was just replacing the two wires and putting the new switch in place, and no more door closing problem.

broken water activator
Unscrew it, rusted, but doable, install the new part, screw it back, the problem is to fit the little hose in the same hole properly, so we created a tool like a piece of wire to elongate it and make it fit again, screw the cover, and Eureka, like new. So happy.

The drawer slide had cracked and was no longer holding the drawer in place
I had removed the current cover from the refrigerator by lifting it out of place. I removed the glass insert and placed it in the new crisper cover. I placed the new assembly into position, added the drawer back into the drawer slides, then the refrigerator was back to new!

broken closing plate
It was very easy to install. Simply removed the top plate on the fridge door. It was one screw. then removed the door and replaced the plate and bearing. The plate needed to be screwed in. Placed the door back on and replaced the top plate. Done! Easy and fast.

Cracked bearing-hinge (PS429803) on bottom
Thanks to everyone is thread, for the valuable info. Over-all, the whole thing was pretty easy.

Removed one phillips screw holding top cover (top of door).
Removed top cover (about 6" long).
Removed two hex nuts (sorry, I've forgotten the size).
Removed door.
Removed broken (bottom) bearing-hinge.*
Replaced bearing hinge.
Replaced door.
Replaced hex nuts.
Replaced top cover.
Replaced phillips screw.

I wasn't sure how heavy (or rather not heavy) the door was, so I had an additional person stading by (it's not heavy). Extra person was not necessary.

The only thing that made the repair annoying was when I tried removing the cracked bearing-hinge, the top splintered and the bottom half was stuck in the door. I ended up having to dig out the cracked piece with pliers & drill & tiny computer screw-driver & swearing.

Moral of the story is don't crack the top off of the bearing-hing that you're trying remove.

The bearing-hinge on the bottom of the door had cracked.
It's not so much the ease of the repair that matters as how quickly you got the part to me. I had tried to order the part frmo a major company who's name rhymes with Beers, but they were unable to deliver it after three weeks. It was constantly on backorder. I ordered it from you on Monday, had the part on Tuesday, and had repaired it by Tuesday night.

Amazing service and turn around. You are to be congratulated.
