Default GE Refrigerator Doors Need to be Tightened
Brand: Please select
Age: Please select

Hello all! I have been lurking for a while and usually find exactly what I'm looking for within a few minutes of searching, but this time, I haven't been so lucky! First of all, thanks to all of you very knowledgeable individuals who take the time to share your thoughts and experiences to help us "not-so-handy" folks!

So my question is this: I have a GE refrigerator (model: TFX25PPBB WW) and the right door (heavier fridge side) has gotten very loose to the point that it slams against the wall behind it if you let go of it. I popped off the top plastic cover and couldn't really see anything to tighten so I'm lost.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks!!

Here is a link to your fridge it shows the door hinge components
PartSelect.com - Appliance Parts Model Search

Problem seems to indicate that the fridge itself is not level
I would check that before messing with hinge parts

The door closing cam at the bottom affects the opening and closing also. Check to see if it's broken.

Thanks very much for the quick replies!

Any idea where I can find a diagram or picture of what the door closing cam looks like?
