Freezer to warm, running at 15-18 degrees F.
Repair turned out to be unnecessary because the compressor was just not supplying adequate cooling. Need new compressor or fridge. Condensor clean fan working, evaporator is ice free and fan working, defrost timer working, thermostat ok and cold control tested good. Fridge runs all the time but never satisfies cold control setting.

Heard a five second buzzing sound repeated 4 or 5 times per cycle coming from rear lower left compressor side.
Removed the six screws holding the bottom access plate found at the rear of the refrigerator. This gives you easy access to the run capacitor that has a retaining clip. Remove the wire clip and pull out the capacitor (it has two quick disconnect terminals). Reverse the process using the new run capacitor to complete the repair.

Light switch which turns on the lights when the door opens went out
This is an easy fix, simply remove and replace. What I was impressed with is that a how to video was provided along with my part. I wish all manufactures would offer this, the video was easy to understand and you had a good view of the operation. Thanks, a job well done.

not cooling
removed condenser fan -located behind refrigerator next to compressor, Not much clearance to work, there are 3 screws to remove from condensing motor,sounds easy but clearance is lacking to remove them ,(takes alot of PATIENCE). Then you have to remove the fan blades to be able to get clearance to remove motor!! I wouldn't reccommend trying this repair unless you are a pro.

Freezer was not getting cold enough
Mine was alittle different than the online instructions. 1. I removed the motor. 2. I took the fan off the old motor and cut the wires about 3" back from old motor. 3. Mounted the new fan on bracket and put the fan on the new motor. 4.connected wires that were cut and used wire nuts to connect. 5. Mounted bracket and motor/fan to unit and it works like its brand new. Thank you PartSelect!

Freezer cold, refrigerator warm
This a top refrigerator with a bottom freezer. Turned freezer temperature dial to the off position. After removing everything from the freezer compartment, remove the back panel hex screws (7) total. Removed panel. Placed large fan in the freezer compartment on high for about 40 minutes to sublimate all the ice on the freezer coils. Removed and replaced the defrost thermostat on the right side of the compartment, it is clipped onto the coils. Replaced back panel and screws. Turned freezer control back to previous setting. It's been working fine for weeks now. Old part was ruptured, apparently from overheating (internal contacts became too resistive) during a defrost cycle.
