I did not do the repair myself as I am an elderly lady but am lucky enough to have a son-in-law who is very capable in many areas. He removed the old handle by loosening the screws with a Philips screwdriver. He attached the new handle likewise.
Service from your Co. and repair service could not have been better.

Partition between Freezer and Fridge was running very hot. (Warm is normal). Oiling fan did not work. The only problems encountered in the replacement were getting fan out and in through coolant lines, cut plug off to accomodate generic fan wiring, getting the screws back in without cooking your hand on a hot compressor. Unit works great
