The water filter needed to be replaced.
I screwed the old one out and replaced it with the new one. A no-brainer. The thing that was so amazing was that I ordered the filter on the intrnet and it arrived the very next day!!! I was very surprised and pleased with the very quick shipping!!!

Refrigerator light had a short in it and would randomly work
Unplugged the fridge. Used a screwdriver to loosen the switch. Easy to disconnect from fridge and just plugged the new switch in. Popped right back into the side of the fridge and worked perfectly.

The fridge died and couldn't find right parts needed
I was told the mother board went out. Took a few months to finally get one myself after repairman didn't come through. It turned out not to be the motherboard that sears repairman tested it for and said that's what it needed. I found Parts select after going round and round with sears parts refusing to accept return. There prices were better, as well as shipping and it came so quick i thought it was over night. The controller assembly was not the problem so we have it for a spare now. It was the freezer fan but even after installing it nothing would work is why we ordered the controller assembly. after 2 days and about 7 hours of checking, taking apart, rechecking assembling by my determined electrician it turned out to be a loose wire. LOL hope this helps someone. I'm just glad to have my fridge again! Blessings!!!

Unit kept beeping as if the freezer door was open
I popped the old switch out of place and then disconnected the wire harness from the switch with a pair of needle nose pliers. I then inserted the harness into the new switch and popped the switch into place. Super easy and fast.

light was not going on sometimes, or needed wiggling to work
purchased a new switch. The old switch just needed to be lightly pried out with a screw driver, then it was simple to unplug the old, and plug in the new. Voila! Light !

plastic tube leaking at connector
Uncoupled the old connector, replaced with new connector and attached supply line. Repair easy with right part, prior to ordering the right part I had tried a compression fitting and it still leaked. U-tube and others demonstrating repair assured me I was on the right path.

Interior Light Would Not Turn Off
Tape off the light button so door alarm does not go off. Take off the clear light shield and remove the light bulbs. Be careful, bulbs may still be HOT!! With Phillips head screw driver unscrew the light plate assy. Drop it down in a comfortable position. Disconnect the connector, unscrew the thermal sensor and remove light assy. Install new light assy into light plate assy. There is no thermal senor in the new assy. Snap light plate assy back into place and install the two screws previously taken out. Install bulbs and clear cover. Remove tape from light door switches and you are done. Lights should go on and off when door buttons are pushed in and out.

Each time we've had to move we have to remove the doors from the fridge to get it thru the front door.since water and ice run thru the freezer door there are 2 tubes that connect at the bottom of the freezer door that aren't meant to be separated very often if ever.it's easier to cut the tubing on b
With alot of elbow grease and a pair of pliars we managed to get the old connector off wo cuttig the tubing as the tubing was getting to short from being cut once to many times & there was no more play in the length.Original connector was a different color and shapped slightly different than the new one so was a bit concerned that I had ordered the wrong part but it went one very easily & did not leak. We even managed to remove it again just to see if it was possible wo cutting again. it came off with no trouble.I would say the replacement part was a better fit than the original simply because we could remove it easily wo having to cut the tube!

Tempered glass broke during cleaning
PartSelect made it so easy for us. We found the glass online, paid for it and it was delivered a couple days later. Packaged well we took out the glass and placed it in where the broken one used to be in the shelf casing. Simple. Thanks to PartSelect we didn't have to spend crazy money to have someone else do this simple repair.

Broken drawer
Replaced the broken drawer with the new one. More importantly, your service is incredible!!! I immediately called my son who has a broken dryer and told him, you must use this internet site. Your price beat the competitor by more than 50% cheaper!!!!! I am not kidding, 50%, now that is what I call great service. I will hold onto your information for future purchases. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

without any warning when taking glass out for cleaning it just exploded
This was late on a Sunday afternoon. I immediately called the store where I purchased the refrigerator who told me to go on-line for any parts. So I went to PartSelect and was able to find the correct part very easily and then order it. It arrived on Thursday without having paid for any upgrade in shipping time.I am very impressed with this company.
