Refrigerator door sagged, had to push the door to close it.
Used wood blocks to raise the door off the lower hinge bracket then unscrewed the suspect hinge. Cut a small shim, two layers of soda can, to place under the lower edge of the new hinge bracket and doubled the washers by using the old one to ensure I had adequate clearance for the door. After a little silicone lube I installed the new hinge bracket. All better now.

Freezer and main compartment had wide temperature variations
I first thought the defroster heater broke - took the back wall of the freezer off and cooling fins were fine. Then took the defroster timer out and opened it up. The contacts were badly burnt so the compressor and fan ran during only part of the cooling cycle. Replacing the timer took less than 5 minutes - turn off the power, remove one screw to take out the control box, cut the ground wire (new timer housing is plastic and does not have a ground connection), remove two screws to unmount the timer, unplug the old timer, plug in the new timer, fasten with two screws, put the control unit in and fasten with one screw, turn power back on.
Parts Used:
Defrost Timer - 60Hz 120V

I broke the Meat Pan while washing it
I ordered the replacement part on-line. When I received the part, I realized it was the wrong part. I contacted PartSelect and worked with the service representative, Julie H. She was excellent!! She determined that I had used an incorrect model number, and then she directed me to where I could find the correct number. She gave me clear directions on how to return the incorrect piece, and then sent me a UPS label to cover the shipping costs. Julie H was at all times, professional, friendly and very helpful!! Regards, Barry Halper

Fridge and freezer stopped working and compressor was humming
The parts arrived next day from Parts Select even though I only had them shipped FedEx Ground and were an exact replacement for the OEM parts. It only took 5 minutes to remove the old parts and replace them with the new ones using a nut runner, lineman dikes, and two wire nuts. I had the repairs completed in 5 minutes but it was actually the compressor that was shot and not the relay and run capactor. End of the day the $60 I spent in parts was cheaper than the $500 quote the local appliance guy gave me and confirmed the same thing...fridge was dead and needed to be replaced. My wife it happy now that we have a new, larger, stainless fridge ;) Thank you Parts Select for quick service and exact fitting parts!

Refrigerator Ran Constantly, Was not Cooling as well.
Looked up troubleshooting info on your web site. Decided to replace the defrost timer. Ordered it using Paypal. Received the Shipment in about 1.5 days in Rural NC. Watched Your Video, cut off power to the fridge, removed the top self and unbolted the panel, removed the defective defrost timer, installed the new one and re-installed the panel and top shelf. Set the timer to defrost to check the operation (looked inside the freezer to see that the defroster was glowing red - it was) waited about twenty minutes to ensure that the fridge started cooling again. Fixed!

Replacing door shelf retaining bars on a frog
There is a local appliance parts store that charges high prices but one can return parts. I ordered 3 things and they got ONE correct. I thought I can do better than this. I went on line and found PART SELECT which provides very good schematics so I could order my own parts with confidence. I got a lll the correct parts, quicker and at a very good price. II have a lot of apartments so this is IMPORTANT to me. PARTSELECT is now my GO To for appliance repairs

Freezer dripped water and items thawed but compressor ran.
Instructions from partselect were very clear and probable cause made it easy to narrow things down. I have the manual for the refrigerator that shows the location of the defrost timer. Very surprised that it turned out to be a cheap and easy fix.
