Left side French Door flap on Samsung refrigerator didn't retract when closing.
OMG seriously! I stopped into my go-to appliance repair shop to ask about what might be needed to repair the problem with my refrigerator door. They said you will need to replace the Mullion Flap piece. Cost would be $250-300 with part, labor and service. I went on line to see if I could handle the repair process myself. I found a How to - U Tube video and turns out I only needed to replace a little spring and pin not the whole Mullion Flap. Went to Parts select, ordered the spring and pin and did the repair myself in about 5 minutes. Shipping was $7 so I ended up paying $13 total.
The installation video notes that the door mullion spring has a bent end, and that the bent end of the spring is to be inserted into the LOWER hinge. However, on my refrigerator door, the bent end of the door mullion spring must be inserted into the UPPER hinge in order for the door to function properly. (Also noted that in your video the installer manually closed the door mullion rather than just closing the refrigerator door, another indication that the installation of the spring was incorrect.) After watching the video several times to confirm I was installing the door mullion spring according to the video instructions, I tried inserting the bent end of the door mullion spring into the upper hinge, which proved to be the correct installation of the door mull spring. What should have been a 5 minute repair turned into an ½ hour repair.
Broken Mullion Door spring-mullion remains open and must be manually folded in
Placed new spring pin and new spring in place with pliers-10 seconds tops. HOWEVER!! Your instruction video is INCORRECT. Spring must be placed opposite of video with bent side toward million otherwise million is flipped outward not held closed. Two frustrating days before I figured that out.
There is a pretty good video about this on youtube, but complications arose nonetheless. The replacement spring supplied by Partselect is a bit different from the original in two ways. First, it is made of heavier-gauge wire; this is a good thing for durability, but it makes installation tougher. Second, the ends of the spring, which are bent at right angles to the spring axis in order to fit into the plastic sleeves that hold the spring ends, are far too long. Once I figured this out, i snipped the ends down by a quarter inch or so, and they fit into the sleeves just fine after a certain amount of persuasion from needle-nose pliers. All things considered, it was a bit harder than it should have been, but the door works now, so all is well.
Went to You Tube and saw video on how to replace broken mullion spring. Ordered part online (more than one in case one broke -very cheap <$3.00 per part). Watched video twice and was able to follow instructions and insert spring correctly. Not difficult if you pay attention to details on how the spring must fit and which end goes where. The door works perfectly!
Unscrewed 1 screw, removed panel, disconnected old icemaker and removed it, Added new icemaker, reconnected, replaced panel, replaced screw, & reset new icemaker. Started making ice almost immediately. Threw out entire first load of ice. Working great since! I wasn’t sure if it was the icemaker or the water valve to it so had a guy come out ($50) who confirmed it was the icemaker. He wanted $550 to replace it (part/labor). We bought the part here at Part Select for $185 (part/tax/delivery) and saved $265 on a job that took less than 15 minutes.
Refrigerator was freezing food on the bottom shelves
It was simple. I pulled out the old seal from the track it was tucked in and put the new one in using a wood spatula to help along the folding part of the door that fits behind the other door. I replaced both seals under 15 minutes. I am a 63 year old female so I know if I can do it so can you! Tip: make sure that you line up the top and bottom and from side to side evenly before you start pressing it into the track. Refrigerator is working properly now.
This company has everything!! One simple spring was all I needed. Fast shipping and product was exactly what they said I needed. Took me less than a minute to fix!! I’ll definitely shop here again!!
Ice maker stopped making ice and made a repeating clicking sound
YouTube the video on how to replace the ice maker. Unplugged the fridge, one screw was removed to open a small cover panel to access where the ice maker was plugged in, unplugged the ice maker, pushed a small locking clip and pulled the old ice maker off the keyhole slots holding it in place removing it from the fridge. Did the steps in reverse and reinstalled the new one. Plugged the fridge back in and reset the fridge by holding the energy saver and alarm button on the front door simultaneously for 8-10 seconds until it beeped. Took a few seconds and the fridge reset
Door Mullion Spring on Samsung Frenh Door Refrigerator - BROKEN
Following the YouTube video - referenced in the PartSelect Website - First installed the Spring Pin on the Mullion - Then inserted the top end of the Spring into the SPRING PIN - then while holding the spring in place with a left hand finger - using needle-nose pliers in my right hand I manipulated the other end ( the lower end) of the spring into the receiving hole on the door .. DONE!
This company failed to get me the parts i needed. Wasted my time and caused a loss.
Called someone else. Got the parts elsewhere. Got the fridge back online 3 week longer than it should. got charged for the part then failed to send it. then finally allowed they didn't have the part in stock.
