How to fix an ice dispenser door that doesn't close all the way on a Whirlpool-Kenmore SxS refrigerator


on this cover, there should be two little slots at the bottom of the panel.... ( ya gotta get down on the knees and look up at the bottom of the panel )

...I use a mini-pry bar,....when you pry on the panel, it will pop off at the tabs on the inner frame......

I did not know if this fix-it kit mentioned by K-dog........fixed this one last week....

Thank You.

Does the spring have to be wound around once like on the genuine Maytag design before installing it or does it just go on in the relaxed state as it would be in the packaged box?
