The Mullion Striker is an OEM part for GE refrigerators responsible for securing the mullion or flipper door in place when it is closed, ensuring a tight seal and temperature inside the refrigerator.
A bad mullion striker can be caused by normal wear and tear over time, damage due to excessive force or impact, or misalignment of the mullion assembly. If you notice that the mullion door does not stay securely closed, causing a gap or allowing warm air to enter the refrigerator, it may indicate a problem with the mullion striker.
Symptoms of a bad mullion striker include:
- Difficulty in keeping the mullion door closed
- Visible gaps or improper sealing when the door is closed
- Condensation or frost buildup around the mullion area
- Unusual noises from the mullion assembly
Replace your faulty mullion striker with this genuine OEM part to restore your refrigerator. This GE part can also be used on Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore/Sears appliances.
