Lost the temperature control know
The knob came in the plastic package. It was the correct part. I opened the package and placed the knob on the prongs. Now it works fine.

The door handle broke where the handle is connected to the door
Very Easy repair just needed a Phillips Head screwdriver. Unscrew two screws and slid the new handle in place and screwed it in.
When you purchase the part, it comes with two handles. One assumes that one is for the main part and the other is for the freezer. Actually, they are both the exact same size. Although the handle is not an exact match to the original it's close enough for a spare, garage fridge.
After reading some reviews there were complaints about having to buy two handles and other complaints about the handle breaking more than once so I'm just holding onto the second handle as a spare.
When life gives you lemons, make lemonade! Heck, I'm grateful to have my garage Frigidaire! Our <5 year old kitchen GE broke in May and we have been unable to get a suitable replacement. I am writing this on October 27, 2020.

Installed 2 screws and connected power. Works like new! Trouble shooting and part installation video is very helpful, great site!

Retainer bar cracked down center
With the excellent diagram provided by website, I was able to order the correct part. This part was not difficult to install, but so happy to know that this website provides instructions for more difficult projects.

Crisper glass shelf installed
Just like the video , just pull out the crisper drawers and slide the new one in. I also made sue that I had a quilt on the floor in case I dropped the glass shelf. Also if you are not sure of the model number you can try calling the store where you bought the appliance at which I had to do. I bought it at Conns and they just needed the phone number I used when I bought it.

Freezer wasn't cooling - compressor not engaging
Ordered the Capacitor and the Thermostat Control. Parts were received in a matter of a few days, easy to install, but did not fix the problem. Had to call a repairman to fix the problem (compressor relay - this part not available to order for this model number with Parts Select). Will continue to use Parts Select in the future for other parts, but not happy that the actual part I needed was not available - had to use other methods.
