Shawn S Tampa , FL September 05, 2015 Appliance: Model SAMSUNG RSG257AARS Plastic piece broke from bottom of freezer door wouldn't close or stay shut Ordered the pieces from here. Downloaded the user manual. I never work on appliances but I couldn't justify the $200 a service tech would have charged to fix a $35 part. Followed the manual and removed the door. Replaced the broken plastic pieces. BE VERY CAREFUL not to strip the screws. I did and that's another story. Very easy to fix. You will need a second person to help guide the door back onto the frame.

David D Valencia , CA December 16, 2016 Appliance: Model SAMSUNG FRENCH DOOR Freezer door would not close Problem was with the bottom hinge. Plastic cam riser failed. I ordered the part online and received it the next day. The entire project took less than an hour. Disconnecting the water lines was the most difficult. One must push in on the grey collar with a finger nail as you pull the tubing out. DIY saved at least $300.

Winn B Media , PA December 14, 2020 Appliance: Samsung Refrigerator RSG257AARS/XAA-0000 Cam on freezer door broke causing it to bind with a bang when you open door Replaced the entire lower hinge assembly. Unfortunately the cam alone is only available for the top half so you need to replace the entire hinge. Fairly simple repair, I think it took a lot more time to empty the refrigerator than to fix it. It is recommended to have a helper to fish the hose back in during reassembly. Read More... Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 30-60 minutes Tools: Screwdrivers, Socket Set
