Ice catcher was missing from the icemaker
I removed the ice catcher from the excellent packaging, rinsed it, and placed it on the counter next to the fridge. I opened the door the the freezer and placed the ice catcher under the icemaker. I lowered the arm on the icemaker and closed the door to the freezer. Then I opened the door to fridge, took out a Guinness, popped the top, and sat down to savor my success.

light did not work on the refrigerator side
bulbs were not burnt out. received the new switch in a few days. watch the short video, was good to see how it comes out. used a putty knife to release the defective switch, removed wires put them on the new one and posed the new switch back in. Not bad Part cost $11.00 7 dollars shipping so for 17 bucks it works great. nice to see what is inside the refer!

Cranky Preschooler Yanked the Original Shelf Off
My youngest was having a little fit over my refusal to let her have some snack or other, and she yanked on the shelf hard enough that it cracked right off.
Because the shelf is of such narrow depth, it didn't seem like it would matter much that it was missing. However, we discovered over the course of the year that it indeed held quite a bit. Those displace items now had to take up valuable space in the main body of the fridge, and with a family full of young kids, there is no room to spare.
PartsSelect was the first hit google gave me when I looked for a replacement. I could not believe how easy the search was - I put in the relevant info on the website, it showed me the part I needed, and I placed my order. Thanks!!!!

Light in my refrigerator didn't work.
At first I went to a local part supplier and they didn't have it in stock but could order it for me for $55.00 plus $10.00 to ship it. I told them I would have to think about it. I went home and got on the computer and found your web site and was I shocked when I saw the same part listed for $6.98 and $7.00 to ship it. You guys saved me $50.00. The part arrived in two day and took 5 min. to install. I now have light in my refrigerator. Thank you.
