There is litttle/no thread left on the screw. The rest of the threads are in the housing that the screw screws into. I am wondering the best method of removing the rest of the screw from the housing so I can replace the screw. Thanks.

PSW comes up as fridges. Unless the screw broke off in such a way that you can get a small screw driver to crab onto a ridge etc. you will probably have to replace the support assembly. I think trying to use a broken screw/bolt puller will just screw up the support threads.
