We opened the doors so mold would not build up and now niether door will close. They come about 12" from closing and both seem to be hung up on the gasket about 3/4 of the way down each door. The gasket seems to bunch up and keep door from closing but no visable change is apparrent. Thanks for any help you can offer.

Also loosen the screws on the door hinge and try to adjust the door so that they close better then retighten the screws. Refrigerator repair guide
