Edward C Coventry , CT December 05, 2016 Refrigerator gasket wouldn't seal (deformed) The refrigerator gasket had a large gap at the top - due to the leak, both gaskets had mold growing on them so I just replaced both. Generally straightforward, only advice I would give is to loosen the screws as much as possible before removing. On the freezer, the plastic piece (door) which holds the gasket in place cracked in a few locations because I didn't loosen it enough before removing. The corners were tough to fit in but was able to. Loosened the screws on the bottom door more and it was much easier. Once it was installed, there were a few spots on both gaskets that would not seal. I heated them up with a hair dryer, and stretched it out while it cooled. Took some time but I got it to fit correctly, and it straightened out more over the next day or so. 5 People found this story helpful Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 30-60 minutes
