I have a KitchenAid Superba Refrigerator, model #KSRS27IKBL01. The door on the Fridge side is not sealing shut anymore and now this side is not very cold. I have removed all the food items and tried to push the door closed but it is still not sealing. I think something might be wrong with the Seal Gasket System. The freezer side is still working properly. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Hi, Sometines you can stretch the seal. T4ry and put a rolled up piece of paper towel and stick it behind the seal in the area that is not touching. If the seal is not touching in the corners, You might be able to twist the door back in shape. If the seal is open at the bottom, pull the top corner of the door toward you while holding the bottom corner against the refrigerator..
If neither of these ideas work, you will need to replace the seal.

Please let me know if I can assist you further.

Water collecting in bottom of refrigerator? where does it come from? How do you stop it? We have a Kitchenaide superba freezer over refrigerator 21.5 cubic feet total.

most common cause is condensation(fridges are not frost free).check door seals and that the kids have shut the door asap.also make sure you use a spirit level to square up the unt so that the door seals are tight allround....lastly,cover all food and put kitchen paper under salad/fruit drawer to catch water droplets(condensation)

Panel between doors is hot

Many models of refrigerators have a heating element around where the gasket seals to the fridge. This is to prevent ice buildup around the doors that would prevent the doors from closing all the way.
If you haven't noticed any other problems with the cooling of your unit, you're refrigerator is running exactly the way it was designed.

Kitchenaid fridge #KSCS25INSS hot door frame

There are heaters located inside the door frame, to prevent your doors from freezing shut, and also to prevent condensation on the outside of the appliance. It sounds to me as though that is where your problem is... Hope this helps

Refrigerator side not sealing tightly when shut.

Sounds like you may need a new magnetic seal. It is worth the money to fix it, saving electric and your food items.

Good Luck

Door not closing properly

Hi: The Kitchenaid refs. us a gravity close along with the magnets in the door seals. Magnets getting weak seals getting old and what you told me you checked can cause this. The easy fix is to raise the front of the fridge by lowering the front wheels. Pull the grill off the front and find the leveling screws (usually labeled.) Raise the front of the fridge until the doors swing shut with a gentle push. Before you replace the grill make sure the fridge dosn't rock side to side as you want it even. This is what they call leveling a fridge. Not cabinet level. Just sturdy. Hope I helped, Jeff

Fridge door is lower then freezer door

The #1 cause for this problem: The floor beneath the fridge is uneven, causing the refrigerator "box" to be out of square. Adjust the levelers on the fridge bottom to compensate for the uneven floor. That should do it.

    what about the freezer?. Check door seals with a dollar bill, close the door with the bill in different spots, if bill comes out to easy then seals might be bad or a door adjustment is in order. Make sure the coils underneath or behind do not have a layer of dirt on them. Try these simple steps and let us know thanks
