The bottom shelf that covers the crisper drawers was cracked.
This was so easy. Got the model number off the refrigerator door. Internet searched and found this website. Ordered the part. Waited maybe 3-4 days for it to arrive. Opened the box, open refrigerator door remove old broken part, install new part and reinstall the drawers. Piece of cake!! So glad I didn’t have to replace a perfectly good refrigerator. Thank you.

Broken crisper drawer cover
After removing all items from the broken top, I removed both drawers and crisper top. I then slid the new top in place and replaced the drawers which easily slid into the grooves in the underside of the top.

Light out
Turned off the breaker to the fridge because I couldn't reach the power plug to unplug it . Use small flat head screwdriver to pop out the piece, disconnected the rubber prong connectors, inserted the new piece into the rubber prongs snapped it back into place. Flipped the breaker back on and prayed it worked. It did and I saved myself $120 service call.

There was frequently a loud buzzing sound that would come from the freezer.
I wouldn't have tried it without the excellent YouTube video that gave step-by-step instructions! I set up a laptop next to the refrigerator and watched each step then did it myself.

The instructions were very detailed and all of the parts looked exactly like what I was seeing. The only difference was that I didn't need to remove the floor of the freezer to get to the fan motor.

I bought the fan motor, grommets (2), compression ring and fan blade because I wasn't sure which part was causing the problem, and figured that as long as I was in there I might as well put in all new parts.

As it turned out, I did not need the compression ring, because the new fan blade came with a compression ring on it. This was different from what was shown in the video.

Since doing the repair the freezer is now as quiet as it should be, which is a great relief. The project and the money spent were more than worth it. It was great not having to pay a repair man to do the work!

Compressor would run for three seconds and stop, two minutes and repeat.
The overload protector was the problem. It plugs into the side of the compressor and the run capacitor plugs into it.

If you pull the overload protector and it rattles when you shake it, that's probably your diagnosis.

The replacement is different from the original and the wire connectors are different. Hold the thing in the same orientation as if it were plugged in. The vertical connector goes to the neutral wire, which on my fridge is orange. The horizontal connector is for the overload, which for mine is black and white. If you have a schematic you should verify the wires yourself.

Anyway, the refrigerator now works like new.

Light would no longer turn on
I watched the video online, followed the instructions and within minutes had the part installed. The frig light was working once again! I will say the original switch was very snug and I had to do some very minor scraping of the plastic to get the new part to slide in.

Crisper Drawer Cover was broken, and i wanted to add a third shelf for my garage fridge
I slid the old crisper drawer cover out, and slid the new one in. Then I respaced the other shelves, making room for the third shelf, and put the new shelf in. Apart from the time it took me to unpack the boxes these parts came in, and to remove my groceries from the fridge, the "repair" itself took all of about 90 seconds.
