THANK YOU! My 15 year old son and I struggled to put the new seal on and your tip about using the tool saved the day!!
Thanks for this demonstration. My daughter and I started at and finished in 37 minutes after watching this video. It's easier with two people for sure I would be like most guys and be a little upset as you need another person if you have never done this before. I also fixed my broken icemaker after watching your video. Thanks as this saved me a lot of money for a repairman! Now I'm off to fix my rental property gasket.
Thank you for the clear and to the point instructions. You have saved me a mint in hiring a repairman.
Is the mint for the repairman's bad breath 😂
Excellent video that covers everything you need to be aware of. I followed it exactly and got the new gasket on and working perfectly. However, for my unit I did have significant difficulty getting all four corners in place. There were plastic trim sections on the top and bottom of the door that got in the way and only one could be removed. Also I needed to stretch the gasket to get it around the corner edges which also needed to be pried up with a small screwdriver to get the gasket edge underneath. But I got it done! Thanks for the most excellent instruction to us DYIers.
I'm staying in Johannesburg where can I buy fridge gasket in Joburg
I don't care if you don't really need to take the door off... I just watched a 10 minute refrigerator repair video without skipping... and I dont even need to replace my gasket. This man is pure how-to video magic. The hair, the cadence, the the confidence oozing out his big brass nuts must be respected. Game recognize game, sir.
Glad the video helped you out!
+John Gallagher Yeah, it's about time Ron Jeremy's younger brother got some recognition.
That's a good one, dude! Ron Jeremy's younger brother...HA HA HA! :)
It was very informative.
@@yorickhunt3371, no no, he's the Bob Ross of Refrigerator Repair.
Worked great, good instructions! This was a lot easier than I thought it'd be. Door closes like a friggin' vault!
+Alex Miller Awesome, glad the video helped you get the gasket changed!
I did it with your easy to follow instructions. You are heaven sent!!!
We are so glad you were able to get your appliance fixed!
Watched many many videos but this one got the job done! Thank you!!
So clear and to the point, love it. Main reason I'm buying it from you guys.
Glad I found this video before removing my old gasket. New Gasket W10407212 for my Whirlpool french style refrigerator door is very similar to this one. If I would have just tried to pry off my old gasket as I saw in another video, it would have destroyed my inside door panel. All is well after watching this video and taking about 40 minutes to install.
THANK YOU! The tips about starting in the corners is a life safer. I've done a few of these now and never thought to do it that way. This is much easier!
You're welcome! Glad we could help.
Thank you for this wonderful informed video. Hopefully this fixes our problem.
Sweet!!! Thanks for the video!!! We got our gasket installed, the total time was 15 minutes!!!!
Fish Hed Good job on getting the gasket installed!
Thanks so much for this video! I changed out the gasket on my freezer and everything was exactly as shown, and now it works perfectly. Instead of having to spend a grand + on a new fridge, it was less than a hundred dollars to get the new gasket to keep her going for another couple of years. The seal is perfect- even better than on the not-damaged fridge side! The whole operation took me and my kid half an hour.
+Bippy Grace Awesome, glad the video helped you get the gasket changed!
It is very helpful, easy, uncomplicated, thanks for this video.
Wilfrido Contreras Glad you were able to get the gasket changed!
Thank you very much! Before I saw this video, I was with the impresion that it was needed to remove the entire inside panel to reemplace this kind of gasket.
truly my refrigerator door gasket needs a change, and I shall follow your steps . Thanks for explanation
Great job I so appreciate this bid I feel confident I can do this myself after watching you. Step by step was awsome
Thanks guys. This saved me a LOT of money.
thanks a lot for the advice . the steps in the videos are easy to follow.
Glad the video helped you out!
awesome thank you I saved several bucs with this video and your tips ....
Thank you! This is one of those things that you think you should know but; an expert showing how it's done is far more reassuring.
Amazing job Ron! Great video with very clear instructions! You could be a teacher too.
There were some good tips in this video. Using a nut driver handle to push in the gasket worked well. This could be done with the door attached. My KitchenAid has a wide groove for the gasket to fit into, making it even easier.
A good explanation sounds like an excellent engineer.
Thanks a lot,m this video gave me confidence, Respect from australia.
You're welcome! Glad we could help.
Excellent patient video. You have helped me a lot. Now to order!
Glad the video helped you get the door gasket changed!
Great explanation and very helpful ! Thanks 👍👍👍👍
I'm now ready to install and have the information to be successful.
Good video.
Glad the video helped you out!
AppliancePartsPros need to by gaskets for a two door whirlpool upper door is Rick freezer lower doors refrigerator model number is ET 14JKXMNR for serial number is S53834727 would like price Whirlpool
Здорово! 👍Thank! Буду пробовать!😁 Надеюсь получится. Только у меня холодильник Stinol. Интересно, такой же алгоритм 🤔
Taking the door off - easy. Taking off the old liner - easy. Fitting the new gasket around the corners - an hour and a half of fits and starts, with lots of cussing along the way. By the time I finally got them fitted, two of the corner seams had split. These Whirlpool/Kenmore gaskets no longer ship with a rigid fitting to go under the lip - it's all soft gasket material and tears very easily. My suggestion - you can do all the work of taking things apart, but hire a pro to fit the new gasket. If it tears, it's on his dime.
ok an hour later, after much howling into an empty kitchen... bike tire levers sort of worked out ok. they're designed for getting the bead of a bike tire seated in the rim, and they're rounded so that they don't gouge the tire, so they were perfect for this. also it helped to loosen the screws holding the inner door panel, just a turn or two, so the edge of the channel was easier to lift, and then tightening them again once done with a section.
I just did this with the gasket that does not have the metal lip, but one that came from a used unit. The ridge that embeds into the channel in the door requires that you have a plastic pry tool to lever the gasket under the door lip. I had one for other purposes, bought from Amazon, which is about half an inch wide with shallow steps along the pry side, and blue in color. It came in a multi-pack of pry shapes. This tool lets you more easily slip the ridge into the door channel. I did it with the door attached and it took about 45 minutes. It will require a lot of finger and forearm effort. The key with this type of gasket is to get a part of it near (but not on the corner) embedded first, because it’s impossible to force the corner in otherwise. The metal lip gasket is most likely designed for replacement purpose, as you won’t be fighting to squeeze the gasket in, but rather simply pushing straight without prying as the video shows.
Very helpful. Thank you!
Easy to follow tutorial. Probably took about half hour. Yes; I took the door off. When you’re older; it just makes more sense. Now I need to adjust my door height.
Glad we could help!
Thanks for that repair video it was very helpful 👍
This video is awesome,thank you....
Çok teşekkür ediyorum çok güzel anlatıyor sun eline sağlık
Incredibly helpful. The only difference I experienced that I felt may be helpful for someone else is that I lined up the corners precisely, but had to insert the black flap and inch or two down the line and come back towards the corner with the small round push rod to get them to go in. I feel like Tom Hanks in Castaway... "I have made fire!" Thanks APP
WIIIIIIILSOOOOOOON

Merci beaucoup bravo bonne continuation
Thanks. Easy to understand!!
Jane Henry Glad the video helped you get the gasket changed!
I was wondering what I was going to have to end up doing with the gasket I got shipped to me. It is all creased and whatnot, and I was thinking I might have to send it back! Thanks for the tip on heating it up a little bit.
David Wokojance The manufacturers do not always ship them in the best boxes. Lay it out in the sun or in some hot water before trying to install.
The one box was so tore up, the shipping invoice fell out of the box! A huge hole on the side! I ordered one for the fridge, and one for the freezer. Unfortunately the fridge is the wrong size, so I have to send it back to Sears... It's not as bad as the freezer though, so I'm not too worried about it.
Well done video! Thanks
great "How To" video!!!

KATHRYN DE LEON You are welcome, glad the video helped you get the gasket changed.
Hi Matt. Thanks for the video and the explanation 😀
excellent video .
Just saved me $275 by not having the repair man to come to my house. MY GUY!!!!!
Very very nice 👌 good video 👍
Nice trick that of the tool for using it to push the gasket in place.
Good job on getting the gasket installed!
Removing a refrigerator door does make it easier, but it is certainly possible to remove and replace with the door on. When I replace the gaskets, I seldom if ever remove the door--it doubles my labor. Especially on higher end brands like Sub Zero, Lebherr, Monogram, etc.

Thank you very much for your video. Nice, well explained steps. Do you know were I can get gasket for my frigidaire refrigerator?
Appliance parts store near you or online from several retailers..
Men you are cool, спасибо!
good job
thanks for this information
kaka abdelhak Hope you were able to get the gasket changed out!
good job thank you
Great video. It sure makes it easy when people who have done this before take time to video your work and show it to the rest of us backyard mechanics. I'd hate to pay a person to do something only to find out it was a real easy job. BTW, I noticed in the last half of the video you chose not to use gloves. Why'd you use them in the beginning of the video? I hate wearing gloves in any type of repairs. Hard to use gloves and tools same time.
Todd White I usually always wear the gloves, they are pretty thin. Occasionally I cannot get the feedback through them and I take them off, in this case I could not tell if the gasket was going in between the door and the door liner.
Besides I can't believe how expensive is the gasket, when I bought my refrigerator it cost 500 dollars and one gasket replacement cost 71 dollars, is almost the fifth part of the cost...
To make your new gasket smooth after taking it out of delivey box, use a hair drayer. It does the job within minutes.

The refrigerator door gasket was made by our machine,I feel very happy!!
Yar Tao Awesome, glad you got the gasket changed out!
Thanks I got an idea now.
I have a side by side and and I'm not planning to remove the narrower freezer door in order to replace the gasket. Am I looking for trouble by not removing the door?
excelente vídeo de como reparar el sello .
Gracias.
Thought, before replacing the new rubber seal would it be good or bad to add a small amount of some kind of grease/lube to help it go in..? Or would that just help it pop out later..? Thanks!
Looks like the more rigid leading edge takes care of that problem...at least he makes it LOOK that way!!!
Does IT seals back quickly?
👏 Bravo!!!!
muito bom, gostei das dicas,
+WALKZ ZAPPARREZ Glad the video helped you out!
Thank You !!
You're welcome!
Very nice
Very good video.
Thanks for your feedback!
Good job! Subscription!
there are a couple of edit issues 9:50 freezer door (chop) and one earlier.
Thanks for the video!
If the part attached to the fridge where the gasket touches is rusted, is there a hack to replace this or temporarily do something until I can afford another fridge? Is rusted only at the very bottom, causing a tiny air to enter
Excelente felicidades

Nice work
Thanks!
Hi
I install the new gasket. The door dont close hard like before. The top is outside half inch in comparation with the other door. I put a petroleun Jelly around the gasket a left all night. What I can do wrong...?
"Like"? That's all I can do is "like" this video? Where's the "Love it!" button? If there's anything my wife will tell you in not, it's handy. I watched this video and got the job done in probably less than an hour after collecting some appropriate tools. Granted, I didn't cut the power (oops), but I'm sensible enough to know when it's really necessary. Also, we needed the freezer to be working...dang thing is packed.
By the way, a sharp metal cookie spatula works just fine in place of a putty knife if you don't have one handy. :)
Steve Ramer Awesome, glad you were able to get the new gasket installed!
Офигеть мастер! Взял рабочий хладос с нормальной резиной и заменил хорошую резинку на ...... тоже хорошую! :))))
Would this cause the door not to close?
Excellant video. Is the repair very similar with most refrigerator brands?
A lot of the newer ones use gaskets that just push into a channel. Not exactly the same, but same principle.
good
good
Just replaced my fan because the original one was noisy. I may have pushed the fan on the motor too far because the shaft protrudes through the fan blades. Everything seems to work, but is this a problem?
Why does a side by side Kenmore refrigerator cools only half way in the freezer?
Where can I buy a new fridge gasket
Excellent video. When I try to order the part for my refridgerator, it say the part is discontinued, What can I do now?
Give us a call with the appliance model number and we can see if there are any options: 1-877-477-7278.
thank you
Ahadi Kacedali Glad the video helped you repair the refrigerator!
Very goog, thanks.
Carlos Chapinotti You are welcome, glad you were able to get the gasket changed!
Super.
I almost bought a new refrigirator for $1500, how stupid am I, thanks a lot bro, I will try that!
You're welcome!
Not all these type seals have the hard plastic lip and they are a real difficult thing to get back into the door liner.
I did mine without removing the door and man that bottom section made me crazy!!.
I’d certainly recommend taking the door off for sure with this type of seal.
Used a hairdryer to soften the seal once it was on for a perfect seal.
Glad you were able to complete your repair. If there is anything we can help you with in the future please let us know.
@@appliancepartspros Thank you very much for the guide, it was the only video guide I could find that dealt with this type of seal - all the other push in type seals look a heck of a lot easier than this type.
Many thanks for the tips, helped me out here.
My old gasket leaking between gasket and door instead of between gasket and refrigerator. Still need gasket?
Thanks
