I have a Maytag MZD2665HES Wide-by-Side 26cu ft refrigerator, from about 2005. The handle for the right door (the refrigerator) is loose at the bottom. I suspect some plastic pieces have broken, but I cannot figure out how to remove the handle to look at it. This handle does not have a set screw. The appliance is so old, I cannot find a replacement part for sale (all discontinued). I believe the part number is Part #67003929

If I can get the handle off, I am hoping to figure out a fix, or maybe to swap the freezer handle with the refrigerator handle.

Thanks.
