This door hinge pin forms the pivot for the refrigerator door hinge, keeping the door supported and aligned. Replacing a worn or missing pin restores smooth door movement and consistent sealing.
- Acts as the hinge's pivot shaft to support the door
- Helps maintain door alignment so the gasket can seal properly
- Reduces wobble and scraping at the hinge point
- Typical failure symptoms: door sagging, misalignment, poor closing, or a loose/wobbly hinge
What's included: One hinge pin. Install notes:
- Unplug the refrigerator and remove items from the door to reduce weight.
- Support the door; remove hinge cover and screws, then lift the door off the hinge.
- Replace the hinge pin in the hinge bracket; transfer any existing spacers/bushings as designed.
- Reinstall and align the door; tighten hardware and verify smooth operation and seal contact.
