Plastic rails retaining guides broke off.
First I removed all food items from above and in the Meat drawer. Then I removed the meat drawer from the slides and placed it on the counter. Then I removed the shelf that the slide rails are attached to and turned it upside down on some folded towels. Next I inserted a screwdriver (Flat tip) between the bracket and the rail I am about to remove. This released the locking tabs. Then I slid the old rail back and it popped off. I install the new rails without the screwdriver inserting them in the slots and sliding them into place. Next I reinstalled the glass shelf back into the fridge. Finally I inserted the meat drawer back into the new slides. The Job went rather easy, just take your time and don't pry the screw driver too much, just enough to clear the locking tab.

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.

Meat pan rails were cracked and broken.
This repair was quite simple. The rails basically slid off from the the drawer. I then had to screw on the rack wheel and replace the rails by guiding the notcc into the hole and slide it back. The whole process to replace both sides took only 10 minutes.

ice maker kept on dripping water causing ice in the icee containergood compression to freeze in a block
ordered a new shut-off valve. arrived in 5 days. installation had to wait a couple more day for i had to order a new compression nut. the reason i had to order a new nut was because the original nut was made of teflon and stripped easily when i tightened it to make a leak proof.joint. the new nut arrived in two days and was installed readily being that it was made of brass and consequently did not strip when i tightened to make a drip proof joint. finished in approximately twenty minutes' the video that this site has on the internet was of great value.
