One of the drawer slide rail broke, and the other was cracked.
Replacement was simple. Remove the drawers. Suspend the cover pan glass with masking tape to keep it above the rail. With a 1/4" nut driver, remove the two nuts that hold the drawer slides in place. Remove the old slides and install the new. Remove the masking tape from the cover pan glass and replace drawers.

Ice Maker stopped making ice.
Ice maker was side mount instead of rear mount as shown in previous insructions. Removed one screw and slide ice maker forward. used flat head screw driver to undo the ice maker plug. The ice maker came right out. Removed old ice maker fill cup and put it on the new ice maker. Slide the new ice maker into place and used the same screw to secure it. Pluged it in and turned on the ice maker. Had new ice in a couple of hours. It comes with a round plug to square plug adapter, new fill cup and fill tube, all of which I didn't use.

Replacing drawer slide rails on refrigerator.
It was a tough job to replace the drawer slide rails at the bottom of the refrgerator on both the left and right sides. I had to get on the floor on my knees and stomach to get my head inside trying to see the work to be done. First the screws from the broken drawer slide rails had to be removed. The screws in the front part of the rails were a little easier than those in the middle. (Fortunately, there were none in the back.) The screws are hidden in cylindrical grooves and one can't get its head in far enough to see. The middle ones are extremely difficult when on your kneees and stomach. Using a trouble light inside helped a little. The screws in the middle were really tough especially inserting and starting the turning, both in loosening and tightening. Fortunately, I had long nose snips that allowed me to brarely grab the end of the Philips screws and gently insert them in the grooves. Then with luck in aligning the sacrews. I was able to start the tightening but had to use my left hand on the right side as there was no room for my right hand. The total job took a few hours of struggle but I finally finished the job and it was perfect. If I ever have to do it again, I'll know the procedure better. The completion of this task gave me great satisfaction. I think my description here is probably more than neeeded.

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

Ice build up on back freezer panel.refrigerator side not cooling
This was really simple to trouble shoot. I unplugged the unit. I removed the freezer shelves and lower drawer compartment and the light bulb and light bulb shield. Removed 3 upper screws and 2 small socket head screws.Removed the back panel and discovered the coils were completly iced over One the ice melted I removed the two screws holding the defrost heater shield. Pulled the defrost heater,shield,harness and thermostat. I could tell with a visual check the heater was bad. It was very black. I did a continuity check anyway with my meter to confirm it. I installed the new one and the parts I had removed and plugged in the unit. It is working fine. The original symptons were ice build up on the freezer side and a not so cold refridgerator compartment. Total time for repair minus the defrosting time was less than 30 minutes.

Defrost Heater with Harness and Thermostat

Fridge and Freezer not cold enough
Removed everything from freezer, Removed back panel, defrosted coils. removed thermostat top left, cut wires and used heat shrink to splice back together, clipped thermostat back on. I actually replaced the defrost timer and defrost heater also. Best bet is to do all 3 at one time. Part Select will have the new parts to you in days. Great Service and the online repair man is great. I saved hundreds of dollars doing myself.
