frig part is freezing the food
Hello Sheri, thank you for your question! The optimum refrigerator temperature range for storing fresh food is between 38 and 40 degrees Fahrenheit. If your food is freezing, then it is possible that your fridge's temperature setting was accidentally set too low. This is a common problem that can lead to your refrigerator freezing food. If the temperature is set at moderate but still freezing the food, you may need to replace the temperature sensor, part number PS11756547. We hope this solves your problem!
My fridge and freezer smell strongly of air freshener. Is there a built-in deodorizer or filter I can remove?
Hi Cheryl, thank you for contacting us. Your model does not come with a built in deodorizer or a filter. You may do not need to use the fridge for a week and keep the door open. The smell will eventually fade or try baking soda or coffee grounds in the fridge with the door closed. We hope this solves your problem!

I knew the chances of all the freon leaking out was unlikely so I looked at the wiring to the compressor and there was a capacitor and a starter/overload so i figured I would start there. I went on line and found the parts at this site and they were less than the minimum service call charge for a service tech so I figured what the heck le
... Read moret's give her a shot so I did give it a shot. I ordered the parts and they were there in less time than a service tech could come out and i installed the parts and guess what for 90.00 in parts and 15 minutes in time I repaired my refrigerator. Thanks guys, It took less time to order the parts than it did to make the repair so thanks, your website rocks and is very well designed so my hat is off to you guys!

I used a flat-head screwdriver to pop out the old light rocker switch. Then, I unplugged the wires, plugged them into the new light rocker switch, and then popped the new switch into the hole. That's it! Lights began working again.
