Question Refrigerator door not closing properly
Brand: General Electric
Model Number: TPH21PRS
Age: More than 10 years

My refrigerator door, once open, has lost its tension to close unless it is manually closed. I believe whatever spring mechanism or tension in the door needs replacement. What are the specific parts that need to be ordered.

You will likely need a new door hinge cam riser but you will need the last three letters of your model number to get the right color.

Your full model number is located in the fridge section on a tag with the serial number.
