How to remove freezer door

I need to remove both doors of my Whirlpool refrigerator in order to move it to another room. The right door is no problem. The left door (freezer) has a water line that connects at the bottom. There is a 1 1/2' white connector in the water line that doesn't seem to come apart. It is one piece and there is a red plastic washer at one end and a blue plastic washer at the other end through which the water tubing runs.
Can the tubing be removed from this connector and if so, how? I didn't want to force anything yet. If not, I guess I'll just have to cut it out and replace it with some other connector.
Thanks for any help.

Whirlpool french door refrigerator evaporator freezes about every 6 or 7 months

First, I'm not a Whirlpool representative.
* Check your warranty. Call for support;
* Contact;https://www.whirlpool.com/owners.html

*** The following is for information only.***
* Original question was slow ice making or melted ice;:
* Most common is ice build up in freezer coils. This happens every time the door is opened. Ice builds up on coils but is normally removed during a daily defrost cycle.
* The cycle may be unable to defrost all ice due to bad air circulation. Usually caused by rubbish blocking fan intake (bottom of freezer tray or wall.) Overloading food may cover the intake.
* Remove all food from freezer. Check for fan blockage. There should be a steady flow of cold air. If not then your freezer needs to be defrosted.
* Defrost by moving all frozen food to fridge side or cooler. Unplug fridge and open freezer door (drawer). Allow room air to circulate into the freezer. Use a house fan to blow air into freezer. (DO NOT use Hair dryer! It will damage panels.)
* Check and remove melted ice water. Check inner panels of freezer. Once defrosted the panels will be room temperature to the touch. There should not be any condensation or coldness to the panel. If it's still cold then keep defrosting.
* Once the water stops dripping. then close freezer doors.
* plug in freezer and wait 5 mins. Check freezer if inside is cold and the air is blowing cold. Reload freezer with food, take care not to overload or cover fan intake. Monitor for 2 days.

The freezer on my French door fridge is forming frostl. Why is this happening.

Is it frost on the freezer inside back wall or inside freezer towards the freezer door on the top of inside freezer box. If back wall then you have a defrosting problem. If it is towards freezer door then you have door seal problem and moist room air is getting inside your freezer.

Whirlpool stainless french door refrig...need to take handle off bottom freezer door so I can move it out of house. Is this possible without taking off the whole door?

it is much better to remove the complete door instead of handle . there are 4 screws inside that will release the complete door . if your want to do the handle use a credit card and insert it between the handle and door to release . but if stainless it some times leaves marks on door . i always remove the doors as one door is ever and i mean very costly.. mm hope this helps mm feed back pls ..

I was given a Whirlpool ET1FTK 20.8 cu ft refrigerator/freezer. Door frame going thru is 29 inches. Need to take off doors of fridge to get in house. Anything you can send me. Don't have any of the books...

Start at the top and remove the hinge (5/16 socket). Slip the door off and remove the center hinge. Slip the lower door off and remove the lower hinge. Now is the time to reverse the door swing if it needs it. Move the handles to the other side and reassemble with hinges on the other side if you do.

Want to move whirlpool american side by side fridge freezer but need to remove doors how is this done

1. If you just need to gain a little space you can simply remove the door handles. They should just lift (or slide) up with moderate force and can be removed.

2. If you only need to move through one door in a building you might be able to open the doors enough to make the unit clear the door you are trying to move the unit through. This would take care.

3. If you really do need to remove the doors, be sure to disconnect the water line at the rear. Then gently snap off the hinge assembly covers at the top of the unit and disassemble the hinge. Be aware of water lines when you are ready to remove the doors.

Refrigerator top freezer door slightly rubs to inside freezer bottom while closing the door that opens on right side. Due to this after closing the freezer door, the door opens less than a mm near the left...

I think I can help. Usuly the doors have been swapped around in this case. look closely at the freezer door on hinge side. there should be a small metal piece that covers the hinge to prevent anything from jamming hinge. this shield also serves as a spacer. this is what sets the door at the correct height. if the piece is missing you can have your local appliance dealer order one for you. it only takes a few minutes ts to install. you will need to remove the freezer door to do this. Hope this helps and good luck.
