gasket cracking at least 8 years old
Excellent instructions from your video. Replaced gasket once without removing door quite harder to do. Placed gasket in sun to warm it up, didn't have to heat it in hot water. Much easier once doors are removed and replaced gasket on large table or bench. Thanks for the video and your prompt delivery of part.

Fresh door gasket leaking.
Followed the PartsSelect how-to video to the letter., using clothes dryer option to soften the gasket before installation. Installing the new gasket a little tedious, but not difficult. Video was dead on as to method and tools.

slide rail broke (after ten years of use) when I yanked it too hard while cleaning the fridge,.
Ordered a new one and watched a YouTube video on how to do it. Really didn't need it, but it was a nice touch by Part Select because it made the repair go faster than it would had I not seen the video. All it took was one screwdriver, which is what the video said, and a little aligning of the side rail with the from piece. Screwed it together (2 screws) and that was it .

Refrigerator and Freezer seals not working
I followed the instructions and had no trouble. The refrigerator now cycles on and off as it should. The iside temp. is much colder and I know there will be a good savings on electricty.

Right vegetable drawer slide rail broken
The repair is somewhat self-explanatory. The old/broken rail which was broken needed to be unscrewed in front and rear, and the new one simply inserted and screwed in. Simple installation. What I REALLY wanted to share, is how impressed I was with the FAST service/speed that the parts arrived. Originally, we thought that just the middle drawer slide needed replacing, so I ordered the middle one and installed it. After installing it we realized that the right slide was broken too, so I ordered that. I placed the order on Saturday and the part was delivered to us on Tuesday!!! SUPURB service!! I will DEFINITELY order my next parts from PartSelect again!! Thanks for wonderful experience!

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
