Thor June 13, 2020 for Model Number PFSS6PKXASS Hello! I am confused why the entire french (“flipper”) assembly (part number WR02X12669) needs to be replaced when all parts of that assembly are intact and functional EXCEPT the “flipper” assembly is simply not springing into its correct position (flat) when the left door is opened. I understand the “mullion” spring (with 2 dog legs at the Bottom of the French assembly) holds the Flipper “out” when the refrigerator door is closed - so, IS / ISN’T THERE ANOTHER SPRING SOMEWHERE INSIDE THE FRENCH (“flipper”) ASSEMBLY THAT CAN (needs to) BE REPLACED SO THAT THE french (“flipper”) assembly goes into its flush position upon opening the left door? Thanks in advance, it just seems counter intuitive to replace an entire assembly when the spring that forces the assembly into its correct position appears to be the only part that is not functioning.
1 Answer Thor, Based on the information provided it is unfortunate but the manufacturer does not make that spring available, it is sold as part of the complete flipper assembly. Part number WR02X12669 Read More...
Morris June 12, 2020 for Model Number GFSS6KKXASS How do I remove the cover heater french, wr13x10491, so that I can get the flipper off the door. The door hinge,wr13x10491, is broke. Also, the french spring, wr02x12650, is broke. And the french spring pin,wr02x12651, is nowhere to be found.
1 Answer Hello Morris, the cover is held in place by 2 small screws, the heads of which have white plastic cap covers, use a small screwdriver and pry off the caps to expose the screws. Read More...
Frank May 04, 2020 for Model Number GE Profile with French door, Model No PFSS6PKXASS My spring broke (WR13X10516) and looking carefully at the hinge assembly, it seems that the pin (WR02X12651) is also broken. To replace the spring, do I need to remove the entire flipper? Also, since I am not sure about replacement process, I am not sure if the Plastic piece (WR02X12650) should also be replaced.
1 Answer Frank, replacing these parts can be easier if done on a flat surface, but it can be done without removing the mullion. In regards to the plastic piece, if it is broken, it would need to be replaced. Read More...
Doug December 29, 2017 for Model Number PFSS6PKXASS Regarding the "flipper" which seals the two doors in the middle of the refrig, it is no longer going to the correct position when the doors are opened. There must be a spring that puts the flipper in the correct position. Could you tell me what parts I need to fix this issue? Thank you!
1 Answer Doug, For this issue you would need to get the french assembly which is part number WR02X12669. Read More...
Help Please August 20, 2015 for Model Number PFSS6SKXA5S The French Hinge on the left side door seems to be failing and has to be manually moved to close the door. Reading comments above makes me think that the door was opened from the left side repeatedly and causing the top hinge WR13X10516 part to fail. Does this part come with a spring or how does this part work? The instructions posted on how to remove this part in the previous questions did not mention a spring. Is there a place where I can see a video of the installment of the part or manual to install?
1 Answer Help Please, Yes, the hinge and cam does involve a spring [WR02X12810] in fact there are several parts involved [WR02X12666] closer cam, [WR13X10546] hinge. Here is some basic "teardown" information:" Remove two closure mechanism covers (one over each door).Remove three Phillips screws from hinge cover. • Disconnect plugs, door switches, water line and ground wires. • Remove three 10mm screws from each hinge assembly. • Lift doors off center hinge." Once you have the door hinge removed you'll be able to determine which component has failed. If you should need more information please include an E mail address, so we can send you the illustrated information we do have. Thanks Read More...
Donna June 24, 2011 for Model Number GFSS6KKXASS I am confussed. There are no visible wires at all, this is not the door hinge for the left door. It's the top hinge for the 3 inch strip between the doors attached to the left door. I guess you could call it the top middle door hinge? Do you remove all the hinges to reset one? Or can you do one at a time on the middle seal door?
1 Answer Hi Donna. Can you please send us the correct model # for your appliance? We definitely want to assist you, but you might have a few digits off on the one you provided us. Thank -you. Read More...
