Possible Causes
Torn or deformed door gasket, Door hinges sagging, Items blocking door closure, Warped door liner
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety First: Unplug the refrigerator if you will be removing doors or hinges.
- 1. Inspect gaskets: Check all door gaskets for tears, gaps, or hardened sections. Close a sheet of paper in the door; if it pulls out easily, the seal is weak.
- 2. Adjust doors: Use hinge adjustment screws to raise or lower doors so they align and seal properly.
- 3. Warm and reshape gasket: Use a hair dryer on low to gently warm deformed gasket areas and reshape them by hand to improve sealing.
- 4. Replace gasket: If the gasket is torn or cannot be reshaped, replace it with a Frigidaire Professional‑specific door gasket.
