Freezer was not keeping food frozen
The problem began when freezer thawed and could not keep food frozen. Initially, I thought the issue was the defrost heater (because I had seen similar symptoms previously and resolved the issue with a new defrost heater)and I replaced that part with a spare that I had puchased previously. The issue was still unresolved and I noticed the evaporator fan was not running in the freezer because it would not turn on when I closed the door. I checked to make sure I could hear the compressor working (and it was)and concluded that the evaporator fan motor was not running. I ordered the part and found a YouTube DIY video on how to replace it. While I was at work, my fiancee took it upon herself to watch the installation video and install the new evaporator fan motor and all is well.

Evaporator fan motor was whistling
Ironically I did this today, as this email request came up asking how it went. I'm not a repairman, I'm a software engineer, and I can't thank this site enough for the step by step videos. With the video to help, this was a breeze, I was nervous as I had to empty all my freezer out onto the living room floor. Once that was done the repair took about 30 minutes. Thank you partselect!!!!! My second time doing business here, and I'll be coming back (well, if something breaks, so let's hope I don't have to).

Leak
Had a water leak on that valve for probably the last 7 or 8 years. Only noticed it when I had a huge water issue with a leaky faucet. Repaired that, went to repair the Sheetrock behind refrigerator and saw water in the tray under frige. Wiggle hose and realized that the reason the water on the front door would only trickle out was because the leak on that valve was also affecting the pressure on the front door. Unreal!! The website and video made it incredibly simple to replace, u guys rock, for real!!!

Water in Door would not cut off. Solinoid on flap ice shute would not close. Corroded and inoperable.
The video instructions were outstanding in showing how this repair was to be completed. Follow these instructions and Job was very easy. Replaced ice shute flapper and arm, soloinoid and Micro switch for water flow control. Reassemble by reversing procedure. Follow video instructions on how to replace water control valve in back of fridge. Test water flow at bottom front of fridge and defrost flow tube in door if necessary. I used tupperware container with hot water on top of ice shute shelf in fridge door. A couple of times changing and water was flowing. Great site and detailed video instructions for an effective and cost saving self repair. I saved several service trips and service calls and labor costs of a service tect. Parts costs were also a lot cheaper than service tech would have charged. Thanks PartSelect.

Replaced the door bin
SO easy, just took the old one off and popped the new one in. Why I am bothering to write this is that the first time I ordered the wrong part. I got it so quickly and the refund was made as quickly. Then I tried again and I got it right thet second time. Thanks, Mary
