broken plastic "pin" that holds bottom pull out tray cover
I'm uoset that I sat and looked at the broken piece for a month wondering"what the heck is this going to cost me" The more you spend on the appliance the more they break. The repair was too easy. Remove the 2 drawers, remove the bottom draw and there are 3 nuts you need to back off. The whole piece comes off really easy. I left the drawer glide on and took it off after the whole piece was out. Attach the glide to new piece put it in place and screw it back together. Now gow wash the drawers and glass that you have been putting off and reinstall them. Start to finish 10 minutes,.

changing the water/ice filter
Opened up the compartment where the old filter was located, twisted it to take it out (be careful not to spill water in the filter!), and installed the new one. Even a 64 year old woman had no trouble!

My refrigerator light did not work.
After years of using a flash light to check the contents of my refrigerator, I decided to try to fix the problem myself. Replacing the light switch was very easy. The directions were straight forward and I'm sorry I waited so long to tackle the problem.

Both light bulbs had been replaced, but lights did not turn on.
I tried to remove the old light switch using a putty knife and a hammer. It was hard to compress the plastic tabs to pull it back through the hole, but all of a sudden, the lights came on. I guess banging on the switch freed-up the contacts. The new switch is now a spare part in case I need it.

Broke the arm off the food compartment rocker switch
After receiving the new part almost immediately,using two screw drivers, removed the broken switch from the plastic frame. Be careful not to scratch or otherwise tear the plastic...very pliable. Since the original switch was factory installed and the wires were packed in fiberglass insulation, the switch came out but the wires and clips were still in place and could not reach the new switch. It was necessary to pull them down with bent long nose pliers...used a lot of "pull" but the wires held up.Connected the switch, turned the power on and there was light! Reports from other users really took the uncertainty out of the task.
