Dampness on gaskets, mold and mildew
on left side door, I had to remove the flapper (the piece that rotates when you close the door to allow right door to seal. very simple, remove the flapper hingelift up to get the flapper off the door and move it out of the way.
Remove both door gaskets by pulling them out with your hands. Not the orientation of the gaskets because you will have to install the new gaksets in the same orientation.
Press the new gasket in place, into the slot that goes around the inside of the door, by using two fingers to press it into place. Cntinue this all around then go back and press again to assure the gasket is fully seated.
In my case, replacing the gaskets did not solve the issue, but they needed to be replaced do to the condition. The moisture issue was resolve by replacing the flapper (mentioned above)

Broken mullion spring
I watched a couple of You Tube videos on how to make the repair, ordered a new spring from Part Select, and installed the new spring when it arrived. Took about 5 minutes for the actual repair.
Check the spring when it arrives. The first one I received was wound the wrong direction. Called customer service and they were super. Refunded the charge for the first spring, found the correct one for me, and mailed it out.

Wrong spring originally ordered and returned. No response to service and parts question additionally submitted.
Unable to complete repair due to lack of response to emailed question concerning another spring. No picture of spring in question on website making it impossible to be sure of comparability without clarification. Unable to call currently due to no in person support. Just stuck now without an answer. Frustrating to say the least.

Switch stops working
Replace with new switch. this is the third switch i have replaced in 10 years. the only part, besides a light bulb, that has gone bad. obviously this is a problem with this model for Kenmore, or just poor switch design.
