Light switch shorting out causing open door alarm to go off
Easy fix, but they don't give you plenty of wire to work with. When I pulled the switch out it only had about an inch of wire that came with it. meaning if I didn't have a grasp on the wires as I was removing the switch they would have slipped back up the opening

Bottom door hinge was lost during move
I had lost the bottom hinge during a move and so I rigged the hinge using an old tv antenna and the door never really quite worked right and it was VERY annoying. I stumbled upon this site and was surprised how inexpensive the part I needed was. I was very impressed with the speed of shipping and the install took maybe 5 minutes. The fridge works as good as new. Thanks a ton!

Cristal fell and broke when cleaning at sink
Installation was super easy. I just removed first both drawers and then the base where the glass was installed, placed the new glass there carefully making sure that it fitted inside the gap to secure it and place everything back to the fridge the way it was. Presto!

Refrigerator light not coming on
Our daughter spilled juice on the refrigerator light button. It started with the light coming on very slowly and then not at all. We popped off the old button with a flat head screwdriver, plugged in the new one. Works perfect. Can't believe how inexpensive and easy the fix was.

refrigerator evaporator fan noise
Despite attempts to quiet the 2 year old fan, I went ahead and replaced it. Part Select was prompt with a new one at my door less than 24 hours. It was just the fan motor, so took a couple extra steps to place it in the metal housing, but no problems and though the frig still makes noises, it's not coming from the fan as before.

There were two (2) shelves to be replaced the glass over the Food Fresh Bins, plastic encased glass shelf
On the move-in cleaning of the refrigerator I accidentally broke the glass encased shelf, and I don't believe there was a cover (glass or otherwise) in place that covered the Fresh Fruit and Vegetable bins. Wondering through the internet I found Part Select, ordered Parts 224 and 228. Installation really did take less than 30 minutes including, washing, drying, and placement of the two shelves. It's exactly what was needed. The refrigerator once again looks like a refrigerator with all the shelves in place. The customer service folks were more than helpful. All you need to do before placing the order is look at what you need to replace, write down the the model number, the serial number of your product part needed and chat with the customer service folks. All should go well. I'm happy.

Light switch broke when I dropped a jar of jam on it.
The three bulbs would then remain on, so I loosened them to keep them off. I didn't know that the cooling system also would stop when the door was open, so for two days only the side freezer was operational. When I discovered that, I hot glued the switch button off, while I searched for a replacement part. The replacement part was an exact duplicate. A simple prying out of the old switch - using a screwdriver, and the reconnection of the two wires connectors to the new part, and clicking back in place ... done. Seriously, it took two minutes.

Someone (my wife) accidentally broke the glass shelf on the refrigerator in a rental cabin.
I crossed my fingers an hoped the part would get to our remote cabin in Oquossic, Maine. It arrived by Fed Ex during our second week. I unpacked it and slid it into place. No harm/no foul! Whew! Imagine what the rental company would have charged for the repair. I paid $36 with shipping.

The refrige light switch broke when I dropped something on it.
I got the model # off the fridge, ordered the part online. The part was fairly cheap and was at my house 2 days after I ordered it. It was the exact part and I installed it in about 15 minutes and everyting worked out fine and easy and cheap, under $15 total to fix the issue. All I needed to do was use a flathead screwdriver to "pop" out the old switch, remove the 2 wires off the wire connection points, put the wires on the new switch and push it back into place. easy. Great place to get exact parts and fast shipping.
