door won't seal
after replacing the door seal, I couldn't get the new seal to close and stay closed, so I replaced the closing arm and spring. The door will close now but not tightly and it's loosing cold air. So I made and patented a wooden block to put behind the freezer door handle and the refrigerator door handle to keep the doors closed. Available in black, white and natural tan. (just kidding about the patented part, but not the block)

Both my refrigerator doors were damaged when we moved. The doors open and close fine...the problem is, when you open the door, it continues to open to over 180 degrees and bangs the cabinets next to it. i need both doors fixed and i think it is something that prevents the door from opening too far. what is this part? help!

When i close my fresh food door it doesn't close tightly. I have to lift the door just a bit then close for it to get a good seal. I see that the fresh food lever is broken could this be the cause?
For model number GSS23GMKJCES
Hi Elizabeth, thank you for the question. Yes, the damaged hinge lever, part number PS288340, is causing the issue you are facing. This part is to help keep the door closed, almost like a door closer. We hope this information helps!
