Refrigerator Door Gasket

Refrigerator Door Gasket

John from OK

Refrigerator door gasket worn out.

6 in one screwdriver, pliers, 1/4 socket set.

First...watched a few videos on internet (YouTube etc...) to get an idea of what I was getting into to see if I even wanted to tackle this or not. Once deciding to do it, it wasn't very hard as long as I went slow and tried to think ahead, a helper to hold one side while I worked on the other side was a big help!. we spent way more time cleaning while repairing than anything else.

Refrigerator door gasket was bad

Screwdriver

I removed the door and played it on some saw horses. I folded back the magnetic part of the gasket and used my screw gun to remove the screws. Pulled the old gasket out and put the new one in. The pre drilled holes didn't match up with the existing holes but the material was soft so I just put the screws through it. My advice would be to not tighten the screws until you get the door back on. You may have to adjust the liner a bit so the door will fit properly then snug the screws up.
