I replaced the top door gasket to this model, now the door closes but it will not stay closed. For example, I close the top door and if I open and close the bottom door the top door will open.

What is the problem and what do I need to do to fix the proble?

First make sure your new gasket is sealing properly and if not you can use a hair dryer to shape the spots that are not sealing good.

Apply a thin film of Vaseline around the entire gasket.

Adjust the front feet up so that the refrigerator leans back slightly so that the door will have a tendency to close itself.

It is normal for the freezer door to pop open when the fresh food door is closed but if you lean the refrigerator back it should close back if the door gasket is not out of shape, which can be fixed with the hair dryer.
