Frigidaire Refrigerator PLHT19WEB4 Door won't open or close

The Refrigerator Door Gasket is an OEM part for Frigidaire refrigerators. It lines the edge of the refrigerator door, creating an airtight seal that prevents warm air from entering and cold air from escaping the unit. This seal is crucial for maintaining the efficiency of the refrigerator, ensuring that it runs smoothly and keeps food at the correct temperatures without overworking the cooling system.

Symptoms of a bad Refrigerator Door Gasket include:

• Visible cracks, splits, or wear in the gasket material
• Condensation or frost build-up around the door edges
• The refrigerator door not closing fully or seeming to have air leaks

Causes of a bad door gasket can stem from natural degradation over time, exposure to food oils and residues that degrade the rubber, or deformities caused by improper door usage or accidents.

This OEM replacement is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore models.

The Upper Hinge Bearing is an OEM replacement part for Frigidaire refrigerators. It facilitates the smooth and quiet opening and closing. By reducing friction at the hinge point, it ensures the door operates seamlessly and is less prone to wear over time.

Causes of a faulty upper hinge bearing include repetitive stress and wear from continuous door opening and closing over time. Exposure to moisture may accelerate bearing degradation.

Symptoms of a bad upper hinge bearing include:

• Squeaking or grinding noises emitted from the hinge area
• Difficult door operation requiring increased lifting force
• Potential misalignment compromising door seal integrity

This Frigidaire OEM replacement part is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and some Kenmore models.

Symptoms of a bad Door Hinge Washer include:

• The refrigerator door is difficult to open or close
• Squeaking or grinding noises when the door is moved
• Looseness or sagging of the door, indicating misalignment
• Excessive wear on the hinge or the area of the frame where the hinge is attached

Causes of a bad hinge bearing can include regular wear and tear from frequent use, exposure to moisture or temperature changes, and physical damage due to accidental impacts. Over time, these factors can cause the hinge bearing to wear out, become loose, or break, affecting the door's functionality.

Symptoms of a bad hinge bearing include:

• Difficulty opening or closing the refrigerator door
• The door not staying in place or sagging
• Unusual noises, such as squeaking or grinding, when the door is moved
• The door not sealing properly, leading to temperature fluctuations inside the refrigerator
