We've got this old Whirlpool fridge in the basement that recently started dripping internally in the refrigerator section. Ice also builds up on the back wall of the fridge. I think it may be due to a defective door seal as it has a couple of cracks. I tried the dollar bill thing and it seems too easy to pull it out at certain places on the door.

Anyway, I've asked a couple of parts places and they always tell me the part number I've given them is wrong, but it isn't. I even sent them a photo of the model number to show them it's not wrong. I guess it's so old nobody has anything on it any more, but I thought I'd ask here and see if anyone has any idea where I can get a new seal.

Thanks.

Thanks a lot for your reply. Are you saying that the other models listed in that link have the same seal and will work for my fridge?

Actually I didn't check the hinge side of the door, just the handle side, but it seemed pretty loose in places. From what I've read I think I also need to pull the fridge out and take the rear panel off to check for dirty or dusty coils. I wouldn't be surprised if the fridge is not level either, so I'll check for that too.

Thanks again for your time.
