Whirlpool W10830189 Gasket-Fip (Wht) Rh Door OEM Part

The rubber seal/gasket was torn on our KitchenAid refrigerator right side door. I purchased the replacement and followed the directions/recommendations of how to prepare the new gasket for installation. When it's removed from the shipping box, it does have wrinkles and preparing it is a must. I set it out on our tile floor and then used a heat gun (low setting) to warm it up and massage it. It took me about 15 minutes, stopping and restarting as I let the rubber come back to it's desired shape. Once that was completed, I removed the old gasket and the new one went in perfect. Preparing the new gasket is a MUST for a satisfied and successful installation.

My son-in-law who was a serviceman for appliances at one time inserted the new gasket in my refrigerator. He said it was easy to do and he and my daughter have the same refrigerator. She had to pay a serviceman $175.00 to fix the same problem with her refrig several years ago. She replaced the gasket herself after she found out the air vent at the back of the freezer had been blocked with frost. She cleared it with a hair dryer and it was OK for a week or so . She got a new gasket and has not had the problem since. I was told to keep the gasket clean with 409 and it will stay pliable and not let air in at the door. Thanks guys for the gasket. No tools were needed.

Let the gaskets straighten out a bit overnight. Pulled out the old gasket, Cleaned and dried the area well though almost all the mold was in the old gasket. Pressed in the new gasket. Use a hairdryer to warm up and press the slightly deformed areas of the gasket into place. Quick and EASY.

Watched the video and ordered a new seal and replaced it.

Removed old gasket in frig and freezer replaced w/new ordered ones.
