My tenant left the freezer door off its hinge and I can’t figure out how it’s reinstalled. The parts diagram doesn’t show anything missing but I’m stumped. Can anyone help me?
Thanks!
From what I can tell, that metal arm is meant to go through the door and function as the hinge. The bar should slide into a pair of bushings — one at the top [AP5808944] and one at the bottom [AP5806886] — and those bushings fit right into the open holes at the top and bottom corner of the door frame.
There are no holes in the door for anything to go through. I’ll order the bushings, but still no clue how the hinge connects to the door. Otherwise it’s a great fridge - hate to lose it because of this.
Would you be able to provide a picture of the complete door with the angle showing the right side?
I’m not sure which side is right or left - it looks like it could open either way. The side with the handle is completely smooth. Here’s a pic of the other side.
Are there ports on the top or bottom? The handle would be on the left and the door would hinge to the right based on what I am able to find in the use and care guide.
There are no openings/holes in the door at all that I can see. My picture does show the same 4 holes in both left and right/upper and lower corners of the freezer.
The only other thing I can think of is if the bar is long enough to wrap around the side of the door — where those two tabs are — so that it fits in between them and provides tension at the top and bottom. Is the bar long enough to reach and fit that way?
I took a quick vid of what I see….
It looked like there was a dimple at the top and bottom of the door on the side opposite of the handle. From what I can tell, it looks like the metal bar would wrap around the side of the door and the bends would pinch into the dimples.
I’m having trouble picturing what you mean. Sorry!
Can the metal bar wrap around the side of the door that has the two tabs on the side?
I can’t see how that could work. Shall I try to take another video?
It still not working!
