This door gasket seals the refrigerator/freezer door to keep cold air in and maintain consistent temperatures. A correct replacement restores the door seal to help prevent leaks, frost buildup, and inefficient cooling. What it does:

• Replaces a damaged or worn door seal to restore a tight closure between door and cabinet.
• Helps stop cold air from escaping, reducing frost buildup and uneven temperatures.
• Minimizes energy loss caused by gaps or cracks in the existing gasket.
• Addresses symptoms such as visible cracks, gaps when door is closed, or increased running time.

• One white door gasket (as pictured).

• Unplug the appliance or shut off power before starting any repair.
• Inspect and clean the gasket channel and mating surfaces before installing the new seal.
• Start by seating the gasket into the corners, then press the gasket evenly into the channel around the door.
• Avoid using sharp tools that could tear the gasket; refer to the appliance manual for any model-specific steps.

This PTC start relay mounts on the compressor and momentarily powers the start winding to get the motor running, then disengages for normal operation. Replacing a weak relay can stop repeated clicking and help restore cooling.

• Provides initial boost to the compressor's start winding for reliable startup
• Automatically drops out after startup so the compressor runs on the run winding
• Helps address symptoms like warm temperatures, compressor clicking or humming without starting, or frequent overload trips
• Failure may show as rattling, burn marks, or a melted relay housing

• Disconnect power and remove the rear access panel to reach the compressor
• Allow components to cool; note wire locations and take a reference photo
• Pull the old relay straight off the compressor pins; align and firmly seat the new relay in the same orientation, then reconnect wires
• If your unit uses a run capacitor and/or separate overload protector, reconnect per the wiring diagram before restoring power
