What makes the front center where the doors meet on my side by side Roper refrigerator get got to the touch?

The refrigerator is a side by side, water and ice dispenser in the door. That is not hooked up because water is too hard. We noticed a noise so we pulled off the front cover on the floor and it needing de-fluffing very bad. We cleaned all that out with the vacuum, still noticed the sound we cleaned around the fan at the bottom the noise stopped but the hot spot between the doors was there. We had not noticed the hot spot before we vacuumed and cleaned the fan. Can anyone help me with this?

SOURCE: side by side leaks out front door on freezer side

try checking the tube that water drains out , it could be plugged with crumbs or old partials of food and causing the problem, This has happened with my fridge at one time , affecting the defrost cycle of the freezer and dripping water out of the door, The tube was located under the crisper in the back of the inside of my fridge, Hope this solves your problem

SOURCE: My samsung rs2630sh is very very hot to the touch

The fan you should replace is called the condenser fan. It's the one that blows air across the outside coils. When it fails, you'll usually notice abnormal heating of the front of the divider between freezer and fridge.

How do I remove the door with water dispenser from my Roper Side by Side Refrigerator

Turn water supply to refrigerator off and get a pan or towels to collect what water that will spill when disconnected. On each end of the quick connect coupling is a ring hold the coupling tight with one hand while pressing the ring towards the center of the coupling and then pull the water line out. When replacing the water line trim the part of the water line off where the ring was before or the line may leak once you reattach the water line. Press ring towards the coupling to remove and simply push the existing line after trimming into coupling and pull tight. The grip inside the coupling will lock the line in place. If you have questions please let me know, Thank You Sea Breeze

Where the two doors meet it is hot why?

Pull the refrig out and remove the rear panel . Check the fan there to see if it is working and the blade is not obstructed . If not working , and the blade is not obstructed , replace the fan motor . Also make sure the coils in front behind the kick plate are clean of dust , lint , etc . The cooling fan not working will cause the center door strip to get very hot .

Front center panel where doors meet to close are very warm/hot to the touch. Is this normal for this refrigerator?

yes they have heaters in them to help reduce moisture on the ref you can ussually turn them off by turning the energy saver feature on but this may cause moisture to build up on the exterior part and the inside of th ref

Center front partition is very hot!

Either your coils are dirty ( clean from the front after removing the kickplate , only what you can get to ) or , the condensor fan motor is bad ( motor which cools the compressor ) .
