Storage drawers slides were broken

First I removed all the broken pieces with a screwdriver. I then installed the upper drawer slides and then the lower. Put the glass in was easy. All you had to do was put it in the slots on top of the drawers. The filter of course was unscrew the old one and screw on the new one. All in all is was an easy experience. Too bad it took us over a year to order the parts.

Ice damming and freezing blocking dispense door

I unplugged the unit and removed the modeling around the beverge center on the exterior door. At this point I was able to remove the face place to the icemaker and gain access to the ice maker doors csrews. I unscrewed them and replaced them with the new part and reassembled in the reverse order. Generally an easy fix for a poor design for novice handy man/women...

Loud grinding sounds from ice maker when in use

I called my favorite John Moore repairman who had been out a couple weeks before for my clothes dryer. I had briefly mentioned my icemaker problem to him then & he told me to remove the ice bucket, empty the ice, rinse it & re-install it. So when I called the second time & had him listen to the noise on the phone, he said I needed a new ice bucket. I got the model # off the fridge, ordered it from Repair Clinic.com and bingo! Works like a charm now. I saved at least $98 trip charge & who knows what he would have charged to do the same thing. Total charge to me for ice bucket & new water filter was under $150.

Auto water stopped working, found that filter needed replacement

Unscrewed old cartridge, ordered new cartridge, installed new cartridge by following very simple instructions. Took only one day for part to arrive from PartSelect although I paid for cheapest shipping, which was "ground." I was amazed!

Ice and water filter needed replacement

I watched the video, and noticed that they did not even turn off the water. The replacement took less than 30 seconds once the filter was filled with water.
