Door would not close on its own
I removed the top hinge, lifted the door off the bottom hinge, rmoved and replaced the bottom hinge assembly, and reinstalled the door. I then aligned the door and reinstalled the upper hinge. The fridge works just like new!
Freezer door would not close,and would pop open if refridge side door would close
After recieving the part overnight (Very unexpected speedy delivery!) I propped the freezer side door up with a 4x4 and 2x4 and the old part came right off and the new part went right on with no hassels, Done in less than 15 min!!!! The new part even came with step by step easy to follow directions.
Emptied the refrigerator door so it was easier to take off. Used a screwdriver to remove the screw on the top hinge. Lifted door off bottom hinge. Laid the door down so I could take the bottom hinge off. Removed worn out parts and placed the new one on. Slipped door back on hinge,made sure it would close properly and was lined up with freeze door. Put top hinge back in place. Done!! Now door finally shuts on its own again!!! EASY!!!
Door closing cams, top and bottom, became damaged and needed replacement
Turned refrigerator off. Removed food from right hand (refig.) door. Closed door. Removed upper hinge cover with a standard Phillips screwdriver and then removed upper hinge by removing two 5/16" bolts using nutdriver. Lifted door up to clear the bottom hinge-post and set it on the table. Removed the kick pan at the bottom of the refrigerator and then removed the bottom hinge-post which was attached with two more 5/16" bolts. Installed new lower hinge post and rubbed a small amount of mineral oil on the closing cam (which is riveted to the hinge-post). Removed the old upper closing cam from the door (5/16" bolts) while it as lying horizontal on the table and installed new cam lubricated with a small amount of mineral oil. dropped the door in place, replaced upper hinge and cover. Replaced kick pan. Done.
1. Unscrewed the top screws with a socket set 2. Took door off of refrigerator 3. Unscrewed hinge assembly 4. Put on new hinge assembly 5. Replaced door on refrigerator 6. Screwed top screws back in I watched a youtube video on how to replace it that was extremely helpful. I am not a handyman, so if I can do this, anyone can.
I simply followed the excellent video, once I discovered the lower door hinge was the problem. Part Select was amazing! A $25 part and 15 minutes saved me $1,200+ ... the price of a replacement refridgerator. Thank you!
Door was not closing properly due to broken closure on hinge
After watching your instruction video and not wanting to shut down refrigerator and remove foods from door, I elected to lift the door and place blocking under it.The actual hinge replacement took approximately 10 mins. I would also like to say that I am extremely satisfied with PartSelects handling of my order and your promptness resending my order because of my goof-up with my own address. I am grateful and will recommend you to anyone who needs parts for any appliance. Thanks again. Chuck Gjovig
Emptied door shelves and removed top pivot hinge bracket. lifted door of lower pivot and set aside.
Removed vent-toe base and replaced hinge 'L' bracket and cam. Removed two bolts from bottom of door and inserted new plastic cam. Set door back on lower pin and re-attached top hinge bracket while aligning door.
Replaced articles back in door and watched it as it it self closed. Total time, less than 15 minutes excluding cleaning of equipment while dis-assembled.
1. Empty the door shelves. 2. Leave the door closed. 3. Remove the grill directly beneath the doors. a. It snaps in. Pull simultaneously on the outside edge and the bottom about 2 inches in from the outside edge. 4. Using two people. One holding up on the bottom of the door. The other removes the two screws that hold the hinge to the refrigerator. 5. Open the door slowly and let it down slowly to pull the door away from the top hinge. 6. Replace the new hinge half on the bottom of the door. Insert the other half of the hinge into the hole of the door to keep the other half lined up while tightening the screws. 7. Apply a small amount of lithium grease to the contact surfaces of the new hinge. 8. Using two people. One person is to hold the door. Best if he/she holds it from the bottom. The second person lines up the top while pushing up on the door to insert to the top hinge. 9. Insert the other half of the new hinge into the bottom of the door. 10. Line up the holes and insert the two screws that hold the bottom hinge to the refrigerator. 11. Reinstall the grill.
