      All Appliantology tech members are invited to join in this workshop on all things Appliantological. 
      We have a special session planned for this one. Instead of the usual Show 'n Tell on a technical topic, we're going to post tech sheets in the comments to this Calendar Event (scroll down to see what's posted so far) and ask specific questions that can only be answered by reading the tech sheet. If you at least try to answer the questions beforehand, you'll get a lot more out of it. The tech sheet and the questions are posted in the comments section below.
      Your mission, if you should choose to accept it, is to check out the questions for each one and try to answer them ahead of time. Then come to the Dojo to see how well you did! 
      Who: This workshop is only available to tech members at Appliantology.
      When: Saturday, April 27 @10:00 AM Eastern Time.
      Where: Online via Zoom
      How:

Monogram bottom freezer door adjustment

Recommended Posts

So my ZICS360NMBL GE Monogram bottom freezer was starting to have a tough time in hot weather and so I decided to replace the freezer door gasket.

After replacement, I noticed that there is now a huge gap at the top of the freezer door, like 1/8". I guess the door has kind of a tilt to it, and the old freezer door gasket was squashed pretty flat at the bottom. Since the new gasket isn't all squashed, there's a gap at the top. I'm not sure if this gasket is magnetic. If it is, it's about the weakest magnet ever.

I found the service manual of this fridge and there doesn't appear to be any provision or procedure for freezer door adjustment, it's just supposed to be perfect. The door attaches to two drawer slides with eight screws (four per side). I suppose its possible that these drawer slides are worn, there is a little play if I lift on the door. Unfortunately the RH slide is no longer available, while the LH slide retails for $490.

Has anyone worked on these and experienced this problem? I guess I could fit washers between the slides and the door to try and level the door, has anyone done this successfully?
