I unplugged the refrigerator, then opened the door and removed four screws holding the plastic electrical panel to the interior top of the main refrigerator compartment and noticed the cold control was corroded badly, apparently from moisture in the panel. I ordered a new one from partselect.com. When it arrived the next day, I then pul

led off the control knob, unclipped the cold control, unplugged the three wires to the control, then removed the styrofoam insulation blocks holding the thermocouple wire and then removed the thermocouple wire to complete the removal. I then reversed the process to install the new thermostat and control. That is repositioned the thermocouple wire, put the insulation blocks back to hold the wire, then replugged the three electrical wires, clipped the control back and pushed the control knob back on and finally screwed the panel back to the top of the main compartment and plugged the refrigerator electrical cord back in to provide current to the refrigerator. It immediately started up and ran fine. Total time - about 8 minutes.

The repair didn't require any tools at all. Just simply slide the new glass shelf carefully into the the frame and while holding it horizontally slide the frame back into the rails. This took less than a minute to accomplish. Very satisfied with the results.

Don't ever tell your 11 year old to clean the refridgerator. Something will almost definetly get broken like the glass shelf, but luckily I had parts select which in no time assisted me to find the exact part. I ordered the part, it came quickly and I replaced within seconds.
Thanks.

I pulled the old gasket off and thoroughly cleaned the entire refrigerator door, including the area where the gasket would pop into. Starting at the two upper corners, I pushed the corners into the ridge in the door and used my thumbs to press the gasket in along the top of the door. I then went about halfway down the door using my thum

bs to push in the gasket. Then I pushed the lower corners in, taking my thumbs up either side of the door to finish installing that section then I pushed the bottom in, checking the lower corners to make sure they were secure. Then I closed the door and made sure the seal was secure on both sides of the door.

Easily removed the original door gasket starting at an upper corner by pulling the old gasket off completely. I then cleaned the area where the new gasket was to be pressed into the channel on the door of the fridge. I also cleaned the area on the fridge where the new gasket would seat upon completion of the installation.

I then pressed the upper left hand corner of the gasket into place, into the channel on the door. I then pressed the entire upper horizontal part of the gasket into the channel along the top of the fridge door.
I then pressed the left and right vertical portions of the gasket into the channels on the fridge door. I then pressed the lower left corner of the gasket into place, followed by the lower right hand corner into place of the bottom channel of the door.
Lastly, I pressed the lower horizontal portion of the gasket completely into the channel of the bottom of the fridge door.
Finally, I rechecked all portions of the gasket to be sure they were securely fitted into the channel of the door.
Mission accomplished in less than 15 minutes. It's a piece of cake to make this repair!
