I just popped out the broken bin and slid the new one into the slots on the door.
The fix was easy. I appreciate the expert advice on which part to purchase, as that was difficult to figure out. I received a prompt response to my question and the replacement part came quickly.

The repair was an easy replacement. The problem was the LG part was no longer available from LG or any of the other places I tried. The PartSelect customer service representative was a true professional and did an outstanding job of helping find the correct part (LG's diagram was unreadable) and cross-referenced it to find the the part th

I ordered the needed parts, the correct ones I thought, but when they arrived, I realized they were the wrong parts shipped to me. The reason the wrong parts were shipped to me was because PartsSelect failed to advise me there were none of the parts I needed available so they shipped the left hand basket assembly, door, versus the desire

d right hand basket assembly, door. I then had to return the wrong parts shipped to me, at my cost of ~$25, and await a refund for the wrong parts originally shipped to me. That's how I did the repair.

I started by emptying the food out of the refrigerator. Because of the placement of the refrigerator, it was hard for me to open the doors all the way, but I managed to remove the vegetable drawer, the fruit drawer, the deli drawer drawer, and glass that goes in the tray. Once that happened, I realized my refrigerator was a biology experi

ment in progress.
Using my steam cleaner, I cleaned everything that I could and the refrigerator actually looked almost brand new.
I removed the deli tray to have more room to get the whole tray and side guides . Once you do that. the tray is actually very easy to replace. The guides were still in pretty good condition although I ordered one more because it did have a small crack and eventually it will break.
You remove the three guides (left, right, and center) from the old tray and attach the new tray fram.
Sounds Easy, right?
It takes a bit of finagling because " the magic tray" which is part of the vegitable drawer has to be placed before you put the right guide on. this process is a bit awkward. if you can get an extra hand, it helps. After that, it was very easy to just put things back and I took this opportunity to clean the rest of my refrigerator and re-organize. I am going have to do this again because I have to replace the right guide, which has a crack, but so far it's working great it is not a problem. Nothing that a little duct tape can't solve until the real thing comes along. This project took longer than I thought it would. But that was primarily because I also cleaned the refrigerator, and put the right guide on before I figured out I had to put the humidifier cover in first. I think that's really the key step here.
I leave you with this: I researched how to find these parts and this site t was great. I can replace all of the hardware that breaks in my refrigerator for less than it costs to buy a new refrigerator. My friend felt I should just dump the refrigerator and start new. As other DIY people, that was like fingernails on a chalkboard for me. It's wasteful to the environment and economically unfeasible. So celebrate your project's end!
