By: Ge
Part Number: OEM6175494
Manufacturer Part Number: WR2X4901

The Cam Riser is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. It plays a crucial role in the door mechanism, helping to lift and align the door as it opens and closes. This ensures the door operates smoothly and maintains a proper seal, which is essential for the efficient functioning of the refrigerator.

Over time, the cam riser can wear out or become damaged. Causes of a bad cam riser can include frequent use, physical damage from heavy door loads, or general wear and tear of the plastic components.

Symptoms of a bad Cam Riser include:

  • Difficulty in opening or closing the refrigerator door
  • The door not staying aligned or sealing properly
  • Unusual noises when operating the door

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

Answer

Hello Bobby, Remove the screws from the top door hinge after you have emptied the door of any items. Remove the hinge and open and lift the door. The door will lift off of the lower door hinge. Lay the door carefully in the floor on towels or carpet. Remove the one screw holding the old cam riser in place. Retain this screw as it is used to attach the new cam riser. Re-install in the reverse order. The cam riser has been changed by the manufacturer and is now made onto the hinge assembly WR13X10020. This is actually a kit that includes the lower hinge with cam riser and the cam riser for the bottom of the door. If it is the freezer door you are working on, before you remove the top door hinge, unplug the wiring harness and water line to the door. These will be located behind the kickpanel at the bottom of the freezer door. The rest of the steps now apply to the freezer door. During reassembly, you will need to feed the water line through the lower door hinge to begin reassembly. At this point, reverse the disassembly instructions.
