Start at the top hinge remove it. Yank the top door off. Remove the middle hinge and lift off the bottom door. Move the base hinge over to the other side.set the bottom door on it. Install the middle hinge then set the top door. Note: If the doors are reverseable their will be plastic covers over the holes on the other side. Be sure to put them covers in the side you took the door off in case yall ever want to reverse em again and for cosmetic reasons and such. If you have water and ice in the door get a pro to do it for you
make sure the fridge feet are even at the front it would seem the feet are too high and the fridge is on a backward lean allowing gravity to slam the door as there a re no springs in the door it can only be this
Some of these had problems with the door light switches between the doors. They also control the fans. The top and bottom both have fans in back. Try opening top door and holding door light switch in. Wait for a couple minutes to see if fan comes on. Try with freezer too. If not coming on may need switch.
Open freezer door, pull evrything out so that you can see back inner wall, look at plastic housing and see if you have ice/frost building from bottom to top of plastic cover, if so you have lost the ability to circulate air, drain possibly plugged up or evap fan not working or possible other cause. If you see ice/frost buildup shut refrig down for four days and let thaw (be sure to put towels aroundthe front of door area of freezer, the power back up and see if after starting if the fan comes on with the freezer door open and you holding in on door light switch(s). If fan does not come on within a few minutes of holding door switch(s) then evap fan is defective, call a repair tech or call samsung.
Its a two person job. One person has to looses up the two hidges holding the door just slightly while the other person holds the door in place. Once in place tighten the screw/bolts for the hidges back up and check. If not aligned, redo it again until it is aligned and seals properly..
Good Luck!
The Cover hinge is misaligned, causing a no cool situation, the door switch
and magnet are out of alignment, the door alarm is also on
The Blue arrow shows the hinge improperly aligned, the
Yellow arrow shows the correct position of the hinge Solution:
Using pliers adjust
the height of the hinge by pushing it down, the cover hinge willalign properly as
well as the door switch and the magnet, energizing cooling fan and having refrigerator cooling properly.
