Our refrigerator was not cooling below 50 degrees but the freezer had no problems. Turns out that the evaporator fan motor was dead.
I followed the instructions in the video associated with the part that I ordered. The video was perfect and described everything I needed to do clearly. Repair is 100% successful!

Freezer wouldn't go in to defrost cycle
After some troubleshooting to ensure the thermostat and heating element were working, determined that the defrost timer was the problem. With the defective part, I was able to manually advance the timer to activate the defrost cycle, but it wouldn't do so on its own. Unplugged the refrigerator from the wall. Timer is located in the refrigerator compartment at the very top. The compartment houses the cooling thermostat, the light bulb and the defrost timer. Using 1/4" nut driver, remove 4 screws holding compartment cover to top of fridge. Lower a bit to access electrical wiring. Wiring harness can be unplugged to work on the timer away from the fridge which makes it a bit easier. Timer is mounted with 2 phillips head screws. Remove screws and unplug timer from wiring. Install new timer, plug in wiring, secure with the phillips head screws and remount entire compartment.

Faulty defrost timer. Freezer would not maintain temperature
Watched the video once. Removed four 1/4 inch screws with a nut driver unplugged the unit, took out two screws securing the timer. Replaced did all of this in about 10 minutes. It was "exactly" as the video showed and it's worked perfectly since the replacement of the faulty timer. I saved a $75.00 service call minimum and the part was more than likely cheaper from Part Select than from the repair facility. Although I'm a pretty good handy man, you would not need any experience to make this repair. The instructions are precise and the part fit perfectly.

Frig did not run
Simply replaced the defrost timer located inside the frig just behind the temp dial. Very easy job. Removed the 3 screws holding the temp sw and light assembly. Removed the defrost timer w/ 2 screws and put i all back together. 15 mins at most. Suggest you watch the install video for pointers.

Rail slides are made of plastic that broke and peeled like it were a package zip strip.
We needed to first select the correct part number. The diagram furnished at the website was sketchy and incomplete, but thanks to the helpful assistance of your patient customer service rep I was able to correctly identify and place the order for the correct part numbers. Each item arrived in lest than 48 hours using standard shipping charges [5-7 business days] much to my surprise. Disassembly and reassembly was very basic. It took longer to remove the food from the refrigerator shelf and pulling out the drawer than it did to unscrew the part and reassemble it hanging it back on the refrigerator brackets. In all it took less than 15 minutes including the removal and restocking the food back onto the refrigerator shelf. While I am not one to brag about repairing anything mechanical I must admit that this was a real morale boosting operation. Anybody with a screwdriver that is tall enough to reach the shelf and shelf brackets could repair these items. It almost took just as long to fill write this narrative as it did to do the repair. Thanks to the Customer Service Rep, she was very kind and reassuring.

Refrigerator too Warm
tested the thermostat, cleaned the coils, checked seals all clean. defrost timer did not cycle so replaced it but issue not resolved. even though freezer was working while refrigerator was problematic, proceeded to open freezer panel. discovered that fan was not pushing cold air into refrigerator compartment due to ice build up in connecting tubes. cleaned ice and replaced panels to positive result
