I had the same problem yesterday installing a new seal. The bottom opening side corner just wouldn't connect. I thought I wasted money on the seal but then laying in bed last night the light globe moment happened and I figured out a solution which I put into immediate action the next morning to see if it worked and yep success!!!! Not sure if this page is active but happy to share my solution if anyone has the same problem.

Thank you for this tip of pulling out the flattened seal. Even though mine is 8 years old, the seal is still soft and pliable but only flattened out and had uneven gaps. After pulling out to give the seal more "air-bulked", my door now seals much better.

Thank you for your video. I have a Whirlpool side by side refrigerator/freezer. The freezer would not seal at all. Had been getting worse and worse. I removed the seal, cleaned it up (got the glue and mold off it), dried it, put it in the dryer for about 20 mins to get it to soften (and it did a great job) then used your point of turning it upside down, and reinstalled it (THAT was difficult.. had to do it about a half inch at a time utilizing wedges that are used to pop dashboards in vehicles loose). Door went from not sealing at all to sealing fantastic. Thank you for your pointers. Kept me from paying over 200.00 for a new seal.

If this just saved my broke millennial behind from buying a new fridge I swear I’m going to cry tears of relief.

Lifting the door up did the trick for me‼️

Oh, the seal comes out just like that. Awesome. Washed in hot water. Flipped it over. Adjusted the door. Hairdryer! Winning.

Mine also appears to be leaking from a gap in the metalwork between the plastic box (freezer interior moulding) and the metal outer. Probably shouldn't matter that much, but definitely some cool air coming from there, so bit of blue-tack over the gaps and job done. 20mins. Gotta be happy with that.

Great video. I tried it when I got home it took me about 5 minutes and I fixed the problem.

Neighbour's eldest just moved out and was given a fridge which has a gappy seal. I'll give this a try and hopefully save her the cost of a replacement

Thank you so much for your tips. I pulled the seal a little out and that made the deal.

Jfc, it worked impeccably. This is 20 mins after the initial application and I'm expecting to have to redo the whole thing again properly but as a haphazard "have a go" I've initially done I'm genuinely surprised hiw well the 10 mins I put in worked out.

I'm not naive to the fact the item will need replacing soon but at least my 2 tubs of Ben and Jerry's and my frozen avocado toast are safe for the coming days.

Mine had a gap probably from the bottom all the way to the bottom of the handle it is a regular refrigerator I have tried everything I just use the blow dryer on it I bent it out and everything for right now it's staying sealed but how long do I have to leave it shut in order for it to fix itself

One can refresh the entire door seal by removing it and placing it into boiling water.
Boil a lot of water in every pot one has - and in a microwave oven and tip it into the
Laundry sink - soak the seal in boiling water - keep the water as close to boiling point -
even if it means removing some and adding more heat - as the water cools quickly

Hello. Thanks for the quick and easy to follow video! I have replaced my freezer gasket, but its not sealing well. I used the warm water trick, hair dryer, and pressing along gaps. It looks good to the eye. No gaps. However the paper test fails and I am still getting ice build up. Any other suggestions? I have run out of ideas.

Thank you for sharing this helpful video. Your technique was about 80% successful on my brand new refrigerator which had a 4 inch gap at top of freezer gasket. I will repeat again.
Should I use medium or high heat when using my hair dryer? Thanks again.
