Verified Purchase
part seemed to be pricey- but arrived on time
part was correct colour and size- however noty identical to original part. Replacement part has a plastic lip that needs to be fitted onto the door. The corners of the gasket TEAR VERY EASY even after heating them up- we will see how long its lasts

Ice sheet forming on the bottom of the freezer, requiring frequent disassembly and cleanup
We were misled into believing we needed to replace the door seal, and after this replacement was completed we found out it was not the case.
Instead we needed to clean out the EXTENSION-DRAIN,DUAL EVAP W11661573, part #5 on the unit diagram, which is found on the back of the unit.
Back to the seal instructions:
Once you remove the original seal you cannot reuse it, so if you replace it and it is not what you needed, you can't return the not-needed part. There goes about $190.
Also, the seal comes with no instructions (at the time there was no instruction video here either and we had to search other sites). It turns out it takes at least 24 hrs for the rubber seal to regain its shape. You also may have to use a hair dryer for this pre-installation process. Because of this, I marked the time of repair as more than 2 hours.
The end of the instruction video we followed called for testing the new seal installation with a bill ($), if you can pull it out easily from the closed door, you need to continue heating the seal with the hair dryer to improve sealing.
So do yourself a favor and test you fridge seal first, to see if you really need to replace it. Close the door with a bill or paper trapped. If it is loose or falls out, seal needs to be replaced, if the bill/paper stays firm enough, the seal is fine.
It took a lot of research through other resources, not Partselect, to eventually fix the ice formation issue. From all the appliance repairs I have done, this was the most frustrating, although not the most complicated. Since no part needs to be purchased (though you could replace the drain tube for just $24 instead of hassle to clean it), no real help from parts stores is available, and you have to rely on random people with their home videos, some are reliable some are not. We could not find one with our model (596.72383411) and had to figure it out based on similar models. Our drain tube has a siphon, so it is a little harder to clean than other models with s straight tube.
Good luck!

The gasket has been replaced. Pushed in & seated correctly. Gasket continues to fall loose at bottom of freezer drawer resulting in ice forming. Can I glue in place?
For model number 596.72383411
Hello JoAnn, Thank you for the question. Very sorry but we do not list a glue that can be used. If the gasket was installed properly and the correct gasket was used, you may have a defective in the door panel so it is not holding the gasket properly. We hope this helps!

The freezer drawer gasket on our KitchenAid refrigerator (KRMF706EBS00) has come loose and is hanging down; just the bottom section. Would this cause frost in the freezer compartment? We took off the door and put the gasket back in but in keeps dropping off? Get a new one?
For model number KRMF706EBS00
Hello James, Thank you for the question. If you do not have a proper seal it can cause the frost build up and it will cause the Temperature to rise. We suggest replacing the Gasket. If you need help placing an order, customer service is open 7 days a week. Please feel free to give us a call. We look forward to hearing from you!

My freezer door does not make a good seal. The seal is not damaged, but the door does not close completely. I keep having to defrost the freezer. Is there a way to adjust the door so that it closes better or can I increase the thickness of the seal to make a good seal?
For model number WRF736SDAM12
Hello Jonathan, thank you for your question! If the gasket is full of debris, it will not let your freezer door shut properly. Clean it with a warm water. Check the freezer bin is in place and pushed back correctly. Check the appliance is levelled (front to back and side to side), it is recommended to install the appliance so that it tilts slightly backwards for better closing. Check the freezer bin, food and drinks placed in it, as e.g. long bottles or big trays can prevent the door from closing. Loose hinges can cause the door to hang unevenly, preventing a tight seal. Tighten any loose hinges to ensure a snug fit. Other than that, use a hair dryer and heat up the door seal in the areas not sealing properly. Heat up the seal for 30 minutes or so to make it really flexible. Once the seal is properly heated, close the door. Let the door seal form to the frame of the refrigerator. Do not open the for 6 hours to allow for a proper form. Then you should have a good seal once again. If this does not help, you will need to replace the freezer door gasket, part number PS5573760. We hope that helps!
