How to install a new door gasket
For model number MQC1557AEW
Hi John, thank you for your question. To install the door gasket, you need to follow these generic instructions.
Steps for removing old Gasket rubber.
1. First you will need to loosen the gasket screws.
2. Lift the front edge of the old gasket from one corner. This will expose the screws that will need to be loosened. Now, you will not be removing the screws, only loosening them.
3. Start by loosening the visible screws and pull the gasket off the door as you go.
4. Continue until the old gasket has been removed completely.
Steps for installing new Gasket rubber
1. Insert the new gasket rubber by turning it from the top edge.
2. Make sure that the rubber is properly seated and slightly tighten the screws.
3. Once proper adjustments are made tighten the screws completely.
Glad to be of help!

My refrigerator stopped cooling and the freezer section stopped freezing
I knew the chances of all the freon leaking out was unlikely so I looked at the wiring to the compressor and there was a capacitor and a starter/overload so i figured I would start there. I went on line and found the parts at this site and they were less than the minimum service call charge for a service tech so I figured what the heck le

t's give her a shot so I did give it a shot. I ordered the parts and they were there in less time than a service tech could come out and i installed the parts and guess what for 90.00 in parts and 15 minutes in time I repaired my refrigerator. Thanks guys, It took less time to order the parts than it did to make the repair so thanks, your website rocks and is very well designed so my hat is off to you guys!
