• Inability to initiate automatic defrost functions
• Accumulation of excessive frost or ice buildup risking freezer damage    
• Temperature control or airflow issues disrupting refrigeration  
• Potential dripping or leaks from defrost water overflow

Causes of failure involve worn-out internal contacts or degraded electronic components from extended exposure to refrigerated conditions. Mineral residue accumulating within the timer mechanism over many years also risks impeding electrical connections.

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore refrigerators. 

The Freezer Door Gasket is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. This gasket forms a seal around the freezer door, keeping cold air inside and preventing warm air from entering, which helps to maintain the optimal temperature and efficiency of the freezer.

Causes of a bad freezer door gasket can include regular wear and tear, mold or mildew buildup, and physical damage from repeated opening and closing of the door.  

Symptoms of a bad freezer door gasket include:

• Frost buildup inside the freezer
• The freezer running more frequently to maintain temperature
• Difficulty keeping the door closed or it not sealing properly
• Visible cracks, tears, or deformation in the gasket

This OEM GE part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

Refrigerator and freezer door bar end cap. Used on both the right and left hand side. Color: white. Measures about 2-1/2 inches high by 3 inches deep.

The Gasket for the freezer is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. It creates a seal around the freezer door, preventing warm air from entering and cold air from escaping. This seal is crucial for maintaining the correct internal temperature, ensuring the freezer operates efficiently and food stays properly frozen. The gasket measures 19 1/2 inches wide by 28 inches tall.

Causes of a bad gasket can include wear and tear over time, exposure to extreme temperatures, or damage from frequent opening and closing of the freezer door. Accumulated dirt and grime can also affect the gasket's sealing ability.

Symptoms of a bad gasket include:

• Frost buildup inside the freezer
• The freezer running more frequently or continuously
• Higher than normal energy bills
• Warm spots inside the freezer
• The door not closing properly or a visible gap between the door and the frame
